
Only qualified persons are allowed to carry out repair work
on electrical equipment. The user of the device may be
severly injured due to improper repair work.

Switch off the device and disconnect the mains plug if you
do not use the device or before you transport or clean it.

Switch off the device in case of faults, disconnect the mains
plug and contact the customer service.

Never dip the device in water or another liquid.

Do not place objects on the device.

Keep foreign objects away from air inlet/outlet openings.

Drain the water container before transporting the device to
prevent spills.

Do not tilt the device, otherwise outflowing water may cause
damages to the air dehumidifier.

Never pour or spray water on the device
Electrical safety

Use an extension cable in compliance with IEC 60245 (H 07
RN-F) having a core cross-section of at least:

1.5 mm
2
for cable lengths up to 25 m

2.5 mm
2
for cable lengths over 25 m

Long and thin connection lines result in a voltage drop. The
motor does not reach any longer its maximal power; the
function of the device is reduced.

Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be
made of rubber, non-rigid PVC or other thermoplastic
material of same mechanical stability or be covered with this
material.

When installing the power supply cable observe that it does
not interfere, is not squeezed, bended and the plug
connection does not get wet.

Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum.

Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not meant.
Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not
use the cable to pull the plug from the socket.

Check the extension cable on a regular basis and replace it
if it is damaged.

Do not use any defective connection cables.

Do not set up any provisional electrical connections.

Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them.

Only hook up the machine by means of a fault-current circuit
breaker (30 mA).
The electrical connection or repairs to electrical parts of
the machine must be carried out by a certified electrician
or one of our customer service points. Local regulations –
especially regarding protective measures – must be
observed.
Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried out
by the manufacturer or one of his customer service points.
Use only original spare. Accidents can arise for the user
through the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer is
not liable for any damage or injury resulting from such
action.

This air dehumidifier works on the basis of the condensation
principle.
Room air is sucked through a filter and a refrigerating element
where water vapour in the air condense as water droplets.
Then, the water droplets flow into a condensation water bowl
and further into the water container while the dried cold air is
piped through the condenser of the device, heated and blown
again into the room. The temperature of the blown out air is
approx. 2-5 °C above the room temperature. This increase of
heat is caused by power introduced in the compressor and fan
and by heat which is released by the condensation of the water
vapour.
The relative humidity of air is gradually reduced thanks to
continuous recirculation of the room air through the device
resulting in a quick and gentle drying of the room.

Water vapours move easily and unhindered through the
air. Therefore, it is essential to “seal” the room as tight as
possible. That means doors and windows must kept
closed and entering and leaving the room should be
restricted if possible. Otherwise the drying efficiency of the
device is considerably impaired.

Assembly transport wheels
1. Place the air dehumidifier horizontally.
2. Remove the transport handle (1). For this, remove the
hexagon headed bolts M6x40.
3. Turn the transport handle (1). Attach the handle on each
side to the housing using 2 hexagon headed bolts M6x40
and washers A6.4.

Tighten all screws.
