WARNING: This dehumidifier is not classified as
“intrinsically safe” and should not be used in the
following hazardous locations as defined by the
Underwriters Laboratories: Class I Division 1,
Class I Division 2, Class I Zone 0, Class I Zone 1,
Class I Zone 2, Class II Division 1, Class II
Division 2, Class III Division 1, Class III Division
2. Refer to the UL web site:
http://www.ul.com/hazloc/define.htm.
For use in potentially hazardous locations that
fall outside of the above designations, always
consult a certified industrial hygienist before
use. Do NOT use this equipment in any
atmosphere that is or may be immediately
dangerous to life or health (IDLH), combustible,
flammable, explosive, oxygen deficient, and/or
contains odors, vapors, gases or particulates
that exceed permissible exposure levels. Such
atmospheres may require the use of intrinsically
safe equipment, specific engineering controls,
and personal protective equipment in
accordance with Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA), Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), Canadian Standards
Association (CSA), and other federal, state,
provincial and local regulations.
WARNING: Pressurized Unit. This equipment is
factory-charged with R-410A refrigerant and is
under pressure. Only qualified personnel should
attempt repairs to the refrigeration system. Do
not puncture or cut into the refrigeration piping.
WARNING: The unit should never be operated
without the compressor terminal cover properly
secured in place on top of the compressor;
otherwise, serious injury or death could result.
The cover is required to be securely in place to
allow proper operation for the safety overload,
and to act as a shield if the hermetic terminals
blow out of the compressor shell.
OPERATION
1. Place dehumidifier inside area to be dried.
2. Make sure all windows and doors are closed to
the outside and seal off the wet area from any
unaffected areas.
3. Route condensate hose into a drain, or a very
large container.
4. Press the On/Off button to activate the
dehumidifier.
Power Button
The dehumidifier is turned on or off by pressing the
power button. When the dehumidifier is started, the
hour meter will display the cumulative hours.
Purge Button
In normal operation, the pump will automatically
empty the reservoir. Pressing this button allows
manual emptying of the reservoir. Press and
hold
the pump purge button until its reservoir is empty.
Always manually purge the water reservoir before
transport or storage. Turn off the power and allow
the plugged in dehumidifier to rest 5 minutes before
the final purge. The purge button can be activated
even when the power button is in the off position.
Time Counter
The counter will accumulate and display the total
running hours of the unit in 1/10 of an hour. This
counter cannot be reset, and therefore might show
some hours on a new product that has had quality
control testing performed on it.
Defrost Indicator
Under certain conditions, ice may build up on the
evaporator coil. When that occurs, the unit will
automatically go into a defrost cycle, during which
the “Defrost Indicator” lamp will be lit. When the ice
has melted, the defrost cycle will end and the
system will reverse back to normal operation.
