Cleaning and Maintenance
CARE AND CLEANING
The dehumidifier requires regular cleaning to ensure
trouble free operation:
Unplug the Dehumidifier from the mains supply
before cleaning.
Ensure that the Dehumidifier has been allowed to
cool down completely before cleaning.
Use a damp cloth (not wet) to wipe the exterior of the
Dehumidifier to remove dust and dirt.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and fluff from
around the grills.
Never use solutions such as benzene, thinners or
polishing agents.
Ensure the Dehumidifier is dry before plugging back
into the mains supply.
TO CLEAN THE AIR FILTER:
Unplug the Dehumidifier from the mains supply.
Remove the filter. Clean the filter with a vacuum or
with water. Dry the filter.
Ensure the filter is completely dry before placing back
in the unit.
Never use unit without the air filter.
Do not attempt to dismantle the Dehumidifier. There
are no user serviceable parts. For service or repair,
contact an authorised electrical service technician.
Do not use this Dehumidifier with a programmer,
separate timer, separate remote-control system or
any other device that switches the Dehumidifier on
automatically.
STORAGE
To store the unit, remove the plug from the socket
and empty the water container. Allow the container
and the Dehumidifier to dry completely. Clean the air
filter. Store the device in a dust-free location,
preferably covered with a sheet of plastic.
PERMANENT WATER DRAINAGE
It is possible to connect a drainage tube (not
supplied) to the Dehumidifier for permanent water
drainage.
If this option is desired, you will need to purchase a
suitable PVC tube from your local hardware retailer
(Goldair does not hold tubes as spare parts).
Connect the drainage hose to the drain spout.
Ensure that the end of the hose is lower than the
drain opening, otherwise the water will not drain and
flooding may occur.
Also ensure the water tank is in position (in the unit)
otherwise the continuous drainage will not operate.
Place the end of the drainage hose in a drainage
outlet.
When you no longer wish to use the permanent water
drainage, disconnect the drainage tube from the
device.
