This is a normal function for the appliance and
cannot be controlled by the user.
Once the unit has completed defrosting, the
compressor will turn back on and continue to
dehumidify.
TIMER OFF
When the unit is operating press the TIMER
button to set the length of time that you would like
the unit to run for before turning off. Each press
of the TIMER button will adjust the length of time
by 1 hour increments from 1
– 24hours. To turn
off the Timer function, set the Timer back to
“0”
hours or simply turn the unit off.
TIMER ON
When the unit is Off press the TIMER button to
set the length of time that you would like the unit
to remain off before turning on. Each press of the
TIMER button will adjust the length of time by 1
hour increments from 1
– 24hours. To turn off the
Timer function, set the Timer back to
“0” hours or
simply turn the unit on manually.
WARNING!
Take
care
in
positioning
your
appliance, using the timer will mean the unit will
come on automatically. Fire may result if placed
next to combustible material.
PERMANENT WATER DRAINAGE
It is possible to connect a drainage tube (not
supplied) to the appliance for permanent water
drainage.
If this option is desired, you will need to purchase
a suitable PVC tube from your local hardware
retailer (Goldair does not hold tubes as spare
parts).
Connect the drainage hose to the drain spout.
Ensure that the end of the hose is lower than the
drain opening, otherwise the water will not drain
and flooding may occur.
Also ensure the water tank is in position (in the
unit) otherwise the continuous drainage will not
operate.
Place the end of the drainage hose in a drainage
outlet.
When you no longer wish to use the permanent
water drainage, disconnect the drainage tube
from the device.
Operating your Appliance
CONTINUOUS (CO)
If you wish to use the appliance continuously
press the HUMIDITY SETTING button until the
CO light is illuminated and the appliance will run
until turned off manually.
COMFORT MODE (AU)
When COMFORT mode is selected as the
Humidity Setting the unit functions as follows:
When ambient temperature is lower than 5
℃
, the
compressor will stop working and the unit will stop
dehumidifying.
When the ambient temperature is higher than 5
℃
and lower than 20
℃
, the unit will set the humidity
to 60% automatically.
When the ambient temperature is higher than
20
℃
and lower than 27
℃
, the unit will set the
humidity to 55% automatically.
When the ambient temperature is higher than
27
℃
, the unit will set the humidity to 50%
automatically.
NOTE: The unit will stop dehumidifying when the
ambient relative humidity is 3% lower than the set
humidity. The unit will start to dehumidify again
when the ambient relative humidity is 3% higher
than the set %.
This appliance is designed to provide optimum
performance at 35
°C to 15°C but it is still effective
down to 5
°C. Ultimately the performance of this
appliance
is
dependant
on
the
amount
of
moisture or water vapour in the air.
This appliance is rated to extract the specified
unit capacity per day in an environment of 80%
humidity and temperature of 30°C. This is the
world-wide standard for rating Dehumidifiers. In
New Zealand we do not have climatic conditions
with
this
humidity
and
high
temperature.
Accordingly, the extraction levels may be lower.
DEFROST
Occasionally the refrigerant around the motor can
become very cool, this will cause the unit to go
into defrost mode. The compressor will turn off
and the fan will continue to run. The DEFROST
indicator light will illuminate on the control panel.
