ity and obligation of the customer to have 
one installed by a qualified electrician.

INSTALLING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER 

• 

Install the dehumidifier on a level floor 

strong enough to support the unit with a 
full bucket of water. 

• 

For best performance, allow at least 12-18 

inches of air space on all sides of the unit 
for good air circulation. 

• 

Keep all outside doors, windows and other 

openings closed when operating the dehu-
midifier. Humid outdoor air will add to the 

unit's workload. 

• 

Leave the dehumidifier in an upright posi-

tion for 30 minutes before turning on. 

 
 

DEFROST OPERATION 

 
The dehumidifier has a built-in defrost 

control that senses frost buildup on the 
evaporator coils. 

 
During defrosting, the compressor will 

automatically turn off; the fan will continue 
running to defrost the coils.
