WARNING

 For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of 

fire, electric shock or personal injury.

•   Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as 

described in this Owner’s Manual. 

•   This dehumidifier must be properly installed and 

grounded as described in this manual before it is 
used.

•   Never operate this dehumidifier in an area that is 

likely to accumulate standing water. If this condition 
develops, for your safety disconnect the power supply 
before stepping into the water.

•   Never unplug your dehumidifier by pulling on the 

power cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight 
out from the receptacle. 

•   Immediately replace all electric service cords that 

have become frayed or otherwise damaged. A 
damaged power supply cord must be replaced 
with a new power supply cord obtained from the 
manufacturer and not repaired. Do not use a cord that 
shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or 
at either the plug or connector end.

•   If the receptacle does not match the plug, the 

receptacle must be changed out by a qualified 
electrician

•   If the SUPPLY CORD is damaged, it must be 

replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or 
similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

•   The appliance shall be installed in accordance with 

national wiring regulations.

•   Turn the dehumidifier OFF and unplug it before 

cleaning.

•   Haier does not support any servicing of the 

dehumidifier. We strongly recommend that you do not 
attempt to service the dehumidifier yourself.

•   For your safety, do not store or use combustible 

materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors or 
liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

•   All dehumidifiers contain refrigerants, which under 

federal law must be removed prior to product 
disposal. If you are getting rid of an old product 
with refrigerants, check with the company handling 
disposal about what to do.

•   Do not use outdoors.

•   This dehumidifier is intended for indoor residential 

applications only. This dehumidifier should not be 
used for commercial or industrial applications.

•   These R410A Dehumidifier Systems require 

contractors and technicians to use tools, equipment 
and safety standards approved for use with this 
refrigerant.  DO NOT use equipment certified for R22 
refrigerant only.

•   This appliance can be used by persons with reduced 

physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of 
experience and knowledge if they have been given 
supervision or instruction concerning use of the 
appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards 
involved.

with this Dehumidifier.

HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the 
third (ground) prong from the power cord. For personal 
safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.

DO NOT use an adapter plug with this appliance.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a 
3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard 
3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize the 
possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.

Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified 
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded.

Where a 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your 
personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced 
with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

The dehumidifier should always be plugged into its own 
individual electrical outlet, which has a voltage rating 
matching the rating plate.

This provides the best performance and also prevents 
overloading house wiring circuits, which could cause a 
fire hazard from overheated wires.
