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 (removable) water tank located at the front of
the unit. The exhausted air being returned into the room
environment is elevated several degrees causing the
surrounding air temperature to increase (slightly). This
process also contributes to lowering the relative humidity
of the surrounding air.

Dehumidifying Mode Instructions:

When the unit is first connected to the electrical outlet,
the (green) power light starts to flash and continues to
flash until the “on/off” button is pressed. When the “on/off”
button is activated, (pressed) the flashing (power) light
turns to a steady state “on” condition and the dehumidifier
automatically defaults to;

Display: Current Ambient Room Humidity (RH%)
Humidity Setting: 60% RH
Fan Speed: = Low

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 60% 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%)

-OR-

2a. Press the CONT. button. When CONTINUOUS mode

is selected, the humidistat (control) will be by-passed
and the compressor will operate non-stop regardless
of humidity conditions.

FAN SPEED SELECTION:

3. Select a fan speed on the keypad. The speed

you select is identified by the (illuminated) indicator
light located directly above the selection made.

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 depending upon
indoor air quality.

IMPORTANT:

Never operate the unit without the air filter

in place.

AIR FILTER REMOVAL:

1. Grasp the filter handle, and pull the filter out. The filter

will slide out easily. See Fig.2

2. Clean the filter thoroughly using vacuum a cleaner or

wash using luke warm water and mild detergent.

Dry thoroughly before re-installing.

3. To re-install the air filter, slide the filter back inside the

tracks and push inward.
