Allow the unit to reach room temperature before operating.
To begin operating the dehumidifier, follow these steps:

1. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded 115 volt AC outlet. Note the POWER indicators will illuminate.

2. To turn the unit on rotate the knob until it points to the CONTINUOUS setting. It is recommended you leave the 

    unit running in the CONTINUOUS setting for the first three or four days until any sweating and dampness odors 

    have ceased.

3. After a few days when the Relative Humidity has declined, rotate the HUMIDITY knob to a desired point on the 

    dial so the room is kept at a comfortable concentration. The unit will cycle on and off keeping the desired level 

    of comfort.
