Automatic defrosting
In the event that frost forms around the vaporizer coil, the appliance will automatically
switch to the automatic defrost mode until it eliminates the frost. In this mode, the
compressor will turn on in regular intervals and the fan will run continuously. Indicator
light
B12
will be lit on the control panel
A1
.
DRAINING CONDENSATE
For draining condensate, either the tank
A3
or the drain hose outlet
A6
may be used.
Draining condensate into the tank
Prior to turning on the appliance, check that outlet
A6
is fitted with a plug.
During operation, condensate will accumulate in the tank
A3
. As soon as it fills up, the
indicator light
B11
will be lit and the appliance will turn off automatically. Error message
"
P2
" will appear on the display
B8
.
Carefully slide out the condensate tank
A3
, careful not to spill any water. The bottom
of the condensate tank
A3
is not level, therefore do not stand it on the floor when the
condensate tank
A3
is full. Empty out the condensate tank
A3
and insert it back into
the appliance. Check that the condensate tank
A3
is correctly installed. The appliance
will automatically resume operation.
When removing the condensate tank
A3
, be careful so as not to drop it and damage the
internal parts of the appliance. Do not use excessive force when installing the condensate
tank
A3
into the appliance. Using brute force may damage the appliance.
If there is any water in the installation area of the condensate tank
A3
, wipe it using
a dry wiping cloth.
If you remove the condensate tank
A3
while the appliance is running, the compressor
and the fan will stop, a beep will be made and the error message "
Eb
" will appear on
the display
B8
.
If you remove the condensate tank
A3
while the appliance is turned off, a beep will be
made and the error message "
Eb
" will appear on the display
B8
.
Continuous condensate draining via the drain hose
For continuous draining of condensate, screw off the plastic plug anticlockwise from
the drain hose outlet
A6
. Carefully store the plug for future use.
Note:
If there is water in the outlet when the plug is removed, wipe it using a dry
wiping cloth.
Properly screw in the threaded end of the drain hose
A6
to the outlet. To ensure that
condensate does not leak, check that the hose end is properly screwed in.
Locate the free end of the hose so that the condensate can flow out freely. The container
or place where the condensate is drained must be lower than the outlet
A6
. Do not
bend or twist the hose.
Set the required humidity and fan speed to start the appliance.
Note:
When not using the drain hose for continuous draining of condensate, screw
off the hose, wipe away nay water and close the outlet
A6
using the plug.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Disconnect the power plug from the power socket before cleaning.
Note:
For cleaning, do not use cleaning products with an abrasive effect, solvents,
etc. that could damage the appliance.
Warning:
To prevent the risk of injury by electrical shock, do not submerge
the appliance, power cord or power plug in water or another liquid.
Cleaning the condensate tank
Empty out the condensate tank
A3
whenever you finish using the appliance and wipe
it using a wiping cloth.
To prevent undesirable bacteria, micro-organism or moulds from multiplying inside
the tank
A3
, clean it out at least once per month using a cloth dampened in lukewarm
water with the addition of neutral detergent. Then rinse it out thoroughly using clean
water, wipe it dry and insert it back into the appliance.
Do not wash the tank
A3
in a dishwasher.
Cleaning the air filter
After approximately 250 hours of operation, the indicator light above button
FILTER B2
will be lit, signalling that the filter requires cleaning.
Release the grille
A10
and then carefully remove the filters
A9
. Wash the filter
A9
in warm
water with a small amount of kitchen detergent. Then thoroughly rinse it under running
water and allow it to dry naturally. Install the filter
A9
back in its place. However, first
make sure that the filter
A9
is completely dry. Then reattach the grille
A10
.
Warning:
Do not use the appliance without the filter
A9
being properly
installed. Never wash the filter
A9
in a dishwasher.
Cleaning the outer cover and air outlet grilles
To clean the air outlet grille
A10
and the outer cover, use a wiping cloth lightly dampened
in lukewarm water with a small addition of neutral detergent. Make sure that water
does not enter into the vents. In the event that the grille
A10
is only dusty, a vacuum
cleaner may be used to clean it.
Storage
When not using the appliance for an extended period of time, disconnect the power
plug from the power socket and clean it according to the instructions provided above.
Clean the condensate tank
A3
only 24 hours after turning the appliance off since even
during this time a small amount of condensate may accumulate.
Wind the power cord around the holder.
Store the appliance in a dry, clean and well-ventilated location not exposed to extreme
temperatures and out of children's reach.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
Solution
The dehumidifier
cannot be turned on.
Check that the power cord plug is correctly connected to
a power socket.
Check that fuses are in order.
The dehumidifier reached the set humidity level or the
condensate tank
A3
is full.
The condensate tank
A3
is not correctly installed.
The dehumidifier is not
removing humidity
from the room.
The dehumidifier has only been running for a short time,
please wait a few more moments.
Make sure that there are no curtains, roller blinds or
furniture in front of the dehumidifier.
The humidity setting is insufficient.
Check that the doors, windows and other openings in the
room are properly closed.
The temperature in the room is too low (below 5 °C).
There is an appliance located in the room that may be
creating humidity.
The dehumidifier is too
noisy while running.
The air filter is clogged.
The dehumidifier is tilted.
The floor is not level.
Frost is forming inside
the appliance.
The dehumidifier is equipped with an automatic defrost
function, which is activated when frost starts to form.
There is water on the
floor.
Check the hose for damage and that it is correctly
attached.
Disconnect the hose and use the condensate tank
A3
to
drain the condensate. Secure the outlet
A6
using a plug.

Servicing instructions
1.1 Area check
Before starting work on a system containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are
necessary to ensure that the risk of ignition is minimised. When repairing a cooling
system, the following measures must be adhered to prior to performing any work.
1.2. Work procedure
Work must be performed following a controlled procedure so that the risk of flammable
gases or fumes being present during this time is minimised.
1.3 General work area
The whole maintenance crew and other personnel at the site must be informed about
the nature of the works being performed. Work in tight areas must be prevented. The
area around the work site must be divided into sections. It must be ensured that the
conditions inside the area are safe by means of inspections of flammable materials.
1.4 Check for presence of a refrigerant
The area must be checked using an appropriate detector for the presence of refrigerant
before and during work to ensure that technicians are aware of a potentially flammable
atmosphere. It must be ensured that the device used for the detection of leaks is
suitable for use on flammable refrigerants, i.e. non-sparking, appropriately sealed or
intrinsically safe.
1.5 Presence of a fire extinguisher
In the event that any work is performed on the cooling device or associated parts under
heat, then a suitable fire extinguisher must be on hand. In the vicinity of the filling area,
there must be a powder or CO
2
fire extinguisher.
1.6 No ignition sources
No person performing work related to the cooling system that encompasses the
uncovering of any pipes that contain or have contained flammable gasses may use any
ignition sources in a manner that could lead to a fire or explosion hazard. All possible
ignition sources, including the smoking of cigarettes should be kept at a sufficient
distance from the installation, repair, removal or disposal location, during which
flammable refrigerant could potentially be released into the surrounding environment.
