Defrost Control
Your dehumidifier is equipped with an intelligent
defrost system which has an automatic de-icing
mode to defrost the cold coil on which ice forms
during low temperatures or low humidity operation.
The defrost system will switch the compressor off
and on periodically according to the condition of the
cold coil and the room air temperature. The fan will
operate continuously.
Please remember that this dehumidifier is not to
be used in temperatures below 5 °C.
Important:
If the dehumidifier is switched off and immediately
switched on, e.g. when the modes are being changed,
it will take about 3 minutes before the compressor
will start working again.
