HOW IT WORKS
Your dehumidifier controls humidity by forcing excess moisture to condense from the air into the unit as it
passes over the cooling elements. Contact with this cold surface causes the moisture in the air to condense.
This condensed water then drains safely into the water tank. The dried air then passes through a warmed coil
where it slightly warmed and re-enters the room at a slightly elevated temperature.

DID YOU KNOW IT TAKES LESS HEAT TO WARM
DRY AIR THAN DAMP HUMID AIR!
POSITIONING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER
Your dehumidifier will begin to protect your home from the harmful effects of excess moisture as soon as it is
plugged in. Excess moisture will travel throughout your home, in the same way that cooking smells watt to
every room, the dehumidifier should be positioned so that it can draw this moist air towards it from all avec the
home. Alternatively, if you have a serious problem in one area you can begin by positioning the dehumidifier
close to this area and later moving it to a more central point.
When positioning your dehumidifier, ensure that it is placed on a level surface and that there is a minimum of
10cm of space on either side of the unit to allow for efficient airflow.
Your dehumidifier is fitted with castors for extra mobility, if you move the unit, it should first be switched off and
the water tank emptied.
We do not recommend the use of an extension lead so please try to ensure that the unit is sufficiently close to
a fixed mains socket. If it is necessary to use an extension lead please ensure the diameter of the wires of the
cable is at least 1 mm.
When the dehumidifier is in operation, outside doors and windows should only be opened when absolutely
necessary.
