Operating Instructions
Operating Instructions:
Dehumidifying is a means of removing moisture from the air. A dehumidifier will help to protect your home and valued possessions from damage (swelling) caused by moisture in the air. Essentially a dehumidifier removes moisture from the air, as moist air passes over a dehumidifying (evaporator) coil. Moisture is condensed on the evaporator coil, drained and collected inside an internal (remov- able) water tank located at the front of the unit. The exhausted air being returned into the room environment is elevated several degrees caus- ing the surrounding air temperature to increase (slightly). This process also contributes to lower- ing the relative humidity of the surrounding air.
Dehumidifying Mode Instructions:
When the unit is first connected to the electrical outlet, the LED will not display until the “on/off” button is pressed. When the “on/off” button is activated(pressed), the LED light turns to factory default setting:
Humidity Setting: 50% RH
Fan Speed: = HI
IMPORTANT NOTE: Depending on humidity conditions of the surrounding environment, the dehumidifier may not start automatically under the default setting. (this is an indication the humidity level of the surrounding environment is lower than the “default setting of 50% RH) Therefore, it may be necessary to scroll through each of the different dehumidifier settings 35%
~80% until the “humidistat” (sensor) recognizes conditions that will allow the unit to operate.
DEHUMIDIFYING MODE SELECTION:
1.To turn the unit on press the ON/OFF button.
2.Press the humidity “UP” or “DOWN” button to select a desired RH operating value. (35% ~ 80%)
2a. Press the CONT. button. When CONTINUOUS mode is selected, the humidistat (control) will be
FAN SPEED SELECTION:
3. Select a fan speed on the keypad.
When pressing the fan speed Button, the Fan Speed will switch between Low and high.
AIR FILTER:
Your dehumidifier features a removable Air Filter. This filter is located at the front of the unit (behind the air intake grill) directly above the water tank compartment. The air filter plays an important role in helping to reduce (minimize) dust/dirt particles from the surrounding environment.
A blocked/clogged air filter reduces air intake, impacting negatively on operating efficiency. To maintain maximum operating efficiency; The filter must be checked and cleaned regularly. (every 2 weeks)
More frequent cleaning may be required depend- ing upon indoor air quality.
IMPORTANT: Never operate the unit without the air filter in place.
AIR FILTER REMOVAL:
1.Hold the holes on both sides of the water buck- et and slide it out.
2.Remove the air filter by pulling down.
Air filter
3.You may remove the dust with a vacuum clean- er or brush.
:If there is too much dust, please wash the air filter with warm water and dry it in the shade. Please do not wrap the air filter when cleaning it.
