Drying laundry indoors

Maintain room temperature above 16°C with a 

heater

 

z

Drying times will vary depending on the nature 

of the laundry and the room temperature. In low 

temperatures (10°C), drying takes about twice as 

long as when normal (20°C+).

 

z

The airflow is strongest to the top right of the unit.

Installing your dehumidifier 

Make sure to leave some  

space around the unit.
<For use in close proximity 

to a wall>

Stop the louvre in the 

vertical position. Blowing 

air at the wall may cause 

staining.

Operating noise

Place the unit on top of a mat. This reduces vibration and 

noise. It also prevents leaving depressions on carpets.

unattended for long periods, 

inspect the unit every two 

weeks.

Do not allow debris to clog the 

filter/hose as this may cause 

overheating/leakage

furniture and art work are 

vulnerable to dry air, as 

it may cause cracks and 

warping.

and unplug from 

the power source 

when cleaning it.

When the unit is on, the internal fan 

rotates at high speeds and may 

cause 

injury

.
