o
c the condensed water freezes. Any accumulation of ice is
cleared periodically. Your Powerpac incorporates a Defrost System which selects the correct defrost mode
for your home. This maximizes efficiency of the unit at temperatures between 5C/ 41F and 35 C/95 F

Caring for your Powerpac
Display does not illuminate
Check
1. The unit is switched on at the mains. If necessary test the socket by plugging in another appliance.
2. Check the fuse in the plug and if necessary replace with another 5 amp fuse. If you continue to have
problems please see “Requesting Service”.
Blue raindrops and fan lit but the unit does not collect water
Check
1. The water container may be full, empty the container.
2. The water container may not be fitted correctly – replace container and ensure it is fully down.
3. The unit may be in standby mode – check the settings. If you continue to have problems please
see “Requesting Service”.
Reduced water extraction
Check
1. The filter may be blocked, remove clean and refit.
2. The unit will extract less water when excess moisture has been controlled. This is normal.
3. The rear of the unit may have been placed too close to a wall or in front of curtains which restrict air
flow into the rear of the machine.
4. The dehumidifier may have been positioned near to a heat source i.e. a radiator – re position.
5. The drain filter may be blocked, remove clean and refit. If you continue to have problems please
see “Requesting service”.
Dehumidifier collects water but is not preventing condensation
Check
1. Outside temperatures may have dropped suddenly. The dehumidifier may take a few days to get the
problem back under control.
