ADDITIONAL FEATURES:

RESERVOIR FULL LIGHT

• Illuminates when the reservoir is ready to be 

emptied, or when the reservoir is removed and 

not seated in the proper position .

AUTO SHUT OFF

• The dehumidifier shuts off after 30seconds 

when the reservoir is full, or when the reservoir 

is removed or not seated in the proper position . 

When the desired humidity level is reached, the 

unit will also shut off automatically . On some 

models, the fan motor will continue operating .

AUTO DEFROST

• When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the 

compressor will cycle off and the fan will contin-

ue to run until the frost disappears .

AUTO PROTECT

• Once the unit is turned off, it can not restart op-

ertation for the first 3 minutes . This is to protect 

the unit . Operation will automatically resume 

after 3 minutes .

CHECK FILTER

• The system keeps count when the fan motor 

operates and illuminates the clean filter light 

after 250 hours of operation (every 10 days if in 

continuous use) . The  indicator light flashes one 

time each second . 

• After cleaning the air filter, press the filter button 

on the control panel and the indicator turns off .

 

 

AUTO RESTART

• If the power goes out, the unit will restart with 

the previous function settings automatically 

when power returns .

TIMER FUNCTION

• The timer indicator lights are for two separate 

functions, one to automatically turn the unit on 

and another to automatically shut it off . Both 

programs can be set at the same time .

Setting the unit to automatically turn off:
• Push the timer button once (if dehumidifier is 

running) or twice (if dehumidifier is not running) 

until the ‘OFF’ indicator illuminates

• Use the + and – pad to select the number of 

hours before the unit automatically turns off .

• The time will be programmed after 5 seconds of 

inactivity and the display will return to show the 

humidity level . 

Setting the unit to automatically turn on:
• Push the timer button once (if dehumidifier is not 

running) or twice (if dehumidifier is running) until 

the ‘ON’ indicator illuminates .

• Use the + and – pad to select the number of 

hours before the unit automatically turns off .

• The time will be programmed after 5 seconds of 

inactivity and the display will return to show the 

humidity level .

  NOTE: Both ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’ indicators can be illu-

minated—the unit will automatically turn itself 

on and off according to the programmed times .

 $$$ SAVE & CONSERVE ENERGY
• Use the unit in the recommended room size .
• Locate the unit where furniture cannot obstruct the air flow .
