OPERATION 

After unpacking, examine all external features to confirm damage-free 
shipment. Report all defects and damage at once. 

Connect the drainage outlet to a suitably sized hose and run the hose to a 
permanent drain. 

Before connecting it to the mains you should ensure that the humidistat is 
turned fully anti-clockwise. Connect to a grounded 15A standard household 
electrical outlet then the humidistat control should be turned clockwise until 
you hear the unit operate. To protect the compressor, you should allow 5 
minutes between switching the dehumidifier off and on again. 

OPERATING THE HUMIDISTAT 

The humidistat works in a similar way to a central heating thermostat, but 
instead of measuring temperature, it measures the amount of moisture in the 
air. You may select the level of moisture you require (known as Relative 
Humidity) and the unit will operate to achieve that level and then switch off.   
As a general guide, the higher the setting the lower the Relative Humidity will 
be before the machine switches off. Therefore the machine will operate longer 
to achieve this. If the dehumidifier switches off and drying is not complete it is 
possible that the humidistat setting is too low and may need increasing. 
Conversely, if you no longer have condensation and the unit is still operating, 
then the humidistat setting may need reducing.
