OPERATION
After unpacking, examine all external features to confirm damage-free
shipment. Report all defects and damage at once.
Connect to a grounded 110V / 230V electrical outlet. When a generator is
used to supply the power, it is essential to check the minimum kva required,
refer to unit rating plate. To protect the compressor, you should allow 5
minutes between switching the dehumidifier off and on again.
PERMANENT DRAINAGE
For this you will need a length of PVC tubing 10mm internal diameter.
Disconnect your dehumidifier from the power supply before fitting permanent
drainage tube. Feed tubing through grommet hole on rear of unit and onto the
visible drain point. Tubing should be run to a suitable drainage point, ensuring
that the tube doesn’t rise above the tubing outlet point on the rear of the unit,
otherwise flooding may occur.
CHECK DEHUMIDIFICATION PROCESS AS FOLLOWS:
1. Place unit on a level surface.
2. Start up unit by switching to “I” and humidistat fully clockwise
3. Check that the compressor is running.
4. Leave the machine running for 15 minutes.
5. Observe the evaporator coils through the rear grille, to confirm frost
formation or weeping.
•
If the air temperature is below 25
°
C, an even coating of frost should
cover the entire evaporator coil.
•
If the air temperature is above 25
°
C, frost and/or droplets of
condensed water should cover the entire evaporator coil.
6. When the unit is operated in ambient of less than 15°C, a defrost cycle
should occur approximately every hour. The exact time is impossible to
predict as the unit is fitted with a temperature sensitive defrost control.
If, after carrying out the above procedures, the unit does not appear to
function properly, refer to the
Trouble Shooting
section, which follows,
or contact the Factory Service Center.
CAUTION:
DO NOT REMOVE COVERS WHEN UNIT IS IN OPERATION
CAUTION:
ONCE THE UNIT HAS BEEN SWITCHED OFF, WAIT AT
LEAST FIVE MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING.
