USING THE DEHUMIDIFIER
When first using the dehumidifier, operate the unit continuously 24 hours.
How the Dehumidifier Operates
Moist, humid air is drawn over a cold refrigerated
dehumidifying coil. Moisture in the air condenses on
this coil and drains into a tank (or through a
hose for continuous drain).
Dry, clean air is drawn through the condenser
where it is heated and discharged through the top grille
into the room.
It is normal for the surrounding air to
become slightly warmer as the dehumidifier operates.
Automatic Defrost
When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the
compressor will cycle off and the fan will continue
to run until the frost disappears.
In defrosting mode,the fan motor will run normally
and the compressor stop running.
Choosing a Location
A dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little or
no effect in drying an adjacent enclosed storage area,
such as a closet, unless there is adequate circulation of
air in and out of the area.
