IV. OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
WHEN BUCKET FULL LAMP IS ON
The appliance will run continuously until the set RH% is reached or when the water bucket is full.
When the water bucket is full, the Bucket Full indication lamp will light up and the dehumidifier will
stop operating
. Remove the water in the bucket with two hands, then place the water bucket back to
it's proper position the machine will start operating again.
This light will also illuminate when the
bucket is removed or not properly inserted.
DEFROST
In the event frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor will cycle off and the fan will
continue to run until the frost is evaporated. This happens
when the appliance is operating in low
temperatures (less than 53
°
F or 12
°
C), which affects the efficiency of the dehumidifier. When this
happens, the defrost lamp will turn on and the machine will go into periodic defrost mode automati-
cally. Defrost time may vary. If the dehumidifier freezes up, turn the appliance off for few hours and
then restart.
The appliance will not operate satisfactorily if the room temperature is below 41°
F
AIR FILTERS INSTALLATION
Your Whynter portable dehumidifier is equipped with a removable and washable filter. The filter removes
large particles such as dust, pet hair and dander.
WARNING: NEVER OPERATE THE DEHUMIDIFIER WITHOUT THE FILTER
