OPERATING
Positioning the unit
−
A dehumidifier operating in a basement will have
little or no effect in drying an adjacent enclosed
storage area, such as a closet, unless there is
adequate circulation of air in and out of the area.
−
Do not use outdoors.
−
This dehumidifier is intended for indoor residential
applications only. This dehumidifier should not be
used for commercial or industrial applications.
−
Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor
strong enough to support the unit with a full
bucket of water.
−
Allow at least 20cm of air space on all sides of the
unit for good air circulation.
−
Place the unit in an area where the temperature
will not fall below 5°C (41°F). The coils can become
covered with frost at temperatures below 5°C
(41°F), which may reduce performance.

or radiator. Use the unit to prevent moisture
damage anywhere books or valuables are stored.
