Using the dehumidifier.
GEAppliances.com
When first using the dehumidifier, operate the unit continuously for 24 hours.
Choosing a Location
A dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little or no effect in
drying an adjacent enclosed storage area, such as a closet, unless
there is adequate circulation of air in and out of the area.
Ŷ
Do not use outdoors.
Ŷ
This dehumidifier is intended for indoor residential applications
only. This dehumidifier should not be used for commercial or
industrial applications.
Ŷ
Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor strong enough to
support the unit with a full bucket of water.
Ŷ
Allow at least 12–18 inches of air space on all sides of the unit for
good air circulation.
Ŷ
Place the dehumidifier in an area where the temperature will not
fall below 41°F (5°C). The coils can become covered with frost at
temperatures below 41°F, which may reduce performance.
Ŷ
Use the dehumidifier in cooking, laundry, bathing and dishwashing
areas that have excessive moisture. NOTE: Place the dehumidifier
away from the clothes dryer.
Ŷ
Use the dehumidifier to prevent moisture damage anywhere
books or valuables are stored.

damage.
Ŷ
The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most
effective.
Ŷ
Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.
YES NO
NOTE: The dehumidifier has rollers to aid placement, but it should
only be rolled on smooth, flat surfaces. Do not attempt to roll the
dehumidifier on carpet or over objects.
How the Dehumidifier Operates
Moist, humid air is drawn over a cold refrigerated dehumidifying
coil. Moisture in the air condenses on this coil and drains into a
bucket (or through
a hose and drain).
Dry, clean air is drawn through the condenser where it is heated
and discharged out the top grille into the room.
It is normal for the surrounding air to become slightly warmer as the
dehumidifier operates.
When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor will
cycle off and the fan will continue to run until the frost disappears.
When the coil is defrosted, the compressor or fan will automatically
restart and dehumidifying will resume.
