TROUBLESHOOTING 

Problem

 

Possible Cause

 

Solution 

 

The unit does 
not work

 

Power is abnormal 

 

Contact an electrician to perform a repair. 

 

Water tank displaced or full    Check water tank placement or  empty water tank 

Room temperature is too 
high or air-outlet is covered 

Lower room temperature,  clear air outlet 

 

Poor 
performance

 

Filter is dirty

 

 

 

Clean the filter 

 

 

Door & windows are open 

Close door & windows 

 

Air-inlet or out-let is 
blocked. 

Clean air-inlet & air-outlet 

Too Noisy

 

Unit is not placed on even 
surface.

 

Place the machine on the flat surface. Add carpet or 
rubber mat underneath 

 

Filter is blocked 

Clean the filter 

The device 
does not 
dehumidify 

The relative humidity in the 
room where the 
dehumidifier is operating is 
too low. 

The dehumidifier dries down to the target relative 
humidity set and will then go into standby if the desired 
humidity has been reached. 

The 
dehumidifier 
works, but 
relative 
humidity is still 
high 

The place is too large.  
This dehumidifier can dry 
up to about a small five 
bedroom house.   

We recommend using a dehumidifier with a greater 
capacity. Call customer service line for advice. 

There are too many 
sources of moisture.  
Bathing, washing, drying 
clothes and cooking all 
puts moisture into the air. 

We recommend using a dehumidifier with a greater 
capacity.   

Paraffin or Calor gas 
heating can add too much 
moisture into air 

Consider using an alternative heat sources 

The windows 
were clear and 
now 
condensation 
has returned. 

The outside air 
temperature has dropped 
significantly and the 
windows are colder. 

Set the dehumidifier to 40%RH and run for longer  

I cannot 
remove the 
condensation 
from my 
windows, even 
in “Continuous” 
or “Laundry” 
mode 

The surface temperature of 
the windows is too low for 
a dehumidifier to prevent 
condensation. Common 
with single glazed windows 
or poorly insulated houses 
when the outside air 
temperature drops below 
0⁰C 

Keep running the dehumidifier on “Laundry” 24 hours a 
day and if the air temperature outside increases the 
condensation on windows may clear 

Dehumidifier is 
blowing out 
warm air 

The dried air is passes 
over a heating element 
before it is blown into the 
room as part of the 
dehumidification process 

This is normal and helpful especially in the cold 
weather, a dehumidifier is not an air cooler.
