Service   Manual   Ideal   Air   CG2   Commercial   Grade   Dehumidifier       

Sunlight   Supply,   Inc.   

   

   

1.4   Operational   Precautions   

Please   follow   these   warnings   when   operating   the   dehumidifier   to   ensure   safe   and   effective   
operation.       

 

Do   not   plug   in   or   unplug   the   power   supply   while   the   unit   is   operating.   

 

Do   not   place   a   heater   or   other   appliance   near   the   power   cable.   

 

Do   not   store   or   use   flammable   or   combustible   products   near   the   product.   

 

If   a   flammable   gas   leak   occurs,   ensure   gas   is   off   and   open   a   window   for   ventilation   
before   turning   the   product   on.   

Do   not   turn   switches   on   or   off.   There   is   risk   of   explosion   or   

fire.   

 

If   strange   sounds,   smells,   or   smoke   comes   from   product,   immediately   disconnect   the   
power   supply.   

 

Stop   operation   and   close   any   nearby   windows   during   electrical   storms.       

 

If   the   unit   becomes   soaked   with   water   (flooded   or   submerged),   contact   Ideal   Air   Support   
before   using.   

 

Disconnect   power   when   cleaning   or   maintaining   the   product.       

 

If   not   using   for   an   extended   period   of   time,   disconnect   the   power   supply   plug   and/or   
turn   off   the   breaker   to   the   unit.       

 

Do   not   block   the   flow   of   air   at   the   inlet   or   the   outlet.   It   may   cause   product   failure   and/or   
unnecessary   reduction   of   useful   life.   

 

To   prevent   injury,   be   careful   when   maintaining   or   moving   the   unit   as   metal   edges   can   be   
sharp.   

 

Do   not   insert   hands   or   other   object   through   air   outlet   while   the   product   is   operating.   

There   are   sharp   moving   parts   inside   that   could   cause   personal   injury.

   

 

Do   not   drink   the   water   drained   from   the   product.   It   is   not   sanitary   and   could   cause   
serious   health   issues.   

 

Do   not   move   or   tilt   the   unit   while   it   is   operating.       

 

To   avoid   water   spillage:       

o

 

Do   not   move   the   dehumidifier   for   at   least   three   minutes   after   turning   the   power   

OFF       

o

 

Do   not   exceed   45   degree   angle   in   transit
