If the mains lead is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or an
authorised service centre. If the mains plug needs to be replaced, proceed as
follows:
Connect the brown wire to the
terminal labelled "L".
Connect the blue wire to the terminal
labelled "N".
Connect the green/yellow wire to the
terminal labelled with the earth
symbol or "E".
Make sure that the cord-grip is
positioned correctly (over the outer
sheath of the cable) and it fully
tightened.
If the plug is fitted with a 13 A fuse, replace it by a 5 A fuse.
FAULT FINDING
Appliance does not operate when switched on:
• There is a 3 minute delay before the compressor starts. This is to protect the
compressor.
Appliance stops operating and "FULL" indicator lights.
• Bucket is full of water - empty the water as shown on page 6. Do not drink the
water (it may be used for watering plants).
• Bucket is not replaced properly. Ensure that the bucket is correctly aligned with
the housing.
Appliance stops operating and RUNNING indicator flashes.
• This happens if the temperature is lower than 10 °C, and ice begins to form on
the internal heat exchanger. The defrost cycle will last for a few minutes, and
then operation will resume.
Appliance operates intermittently.
• The humidity in the room has reached the level set on the humidistat control.
Very little water is extracted.
• There is very little humidity in the air (this happens during dry sunny weather,
and also during very cold weather). Condensation on windows is caused by the
difference between indoor and outdoor temperatures, and is not a good indicator
of the level of humidity.
The room remains humid and little water is extracted
• The humidity setting is too high, rotate the HUMIDITIY control clockwise to
reduce the required humidity level.
• The area to be dehumidified is too large
