INSTALLATION
Place the appliance on a firm, flat level surface.
If continuous drainage is to be used, remove the bucket and attach a hose (not
supplied) to the spigot shown (left picture).
Use a hose with an internal diameter of 12mm (½"). Make sure that the hose runs
downwards throughout its entire length, and has no kinks. Otherwise the
drainage will not work.
Remove the plastic tab at the top of the bucket (right picture) and replace the
bucket.
OPERATION
•
Plug the mains lead into a 13 Amp mains socket.
•
If connecting via an extension lead, make sure that the lead is rated at 5
Amps, and that it is fully unwound.
•
Place the appliance on a firm flat level surface.
•
Switch the appliance on at the mains socket. Then press the power switch to
start operation.The appliance will wait for 3 minutes whilst the refrigerant
settles before starting to operate, this is to extend the life of the compressor.
•
Use the rotary control to set the level of humidity required. The appliance will
remove humidity from the air whenever the humidity level is higher that the
set level.
•
To select continuous operation, turn the rotary control to the
CONT.
position.
The appliance will continuously remove humidity from the air regardless of
the humidity level.
•
Take particular care if selecting continuous operation when continuous
drainage is being used. It will lead to a continous reduction of humidity
levels; which, if the humidity becomes too low, may lead to the cracking of
delicate wooden items.
•
If operating at an ambient temperature below 10 °C, the internal heat
exchanger will drop below 0 °C, causing ice to form. If this happens, the
