MAINTENANCE
GRILL AND CASE
To clean the case:
Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or an abrasive cleaner.
To clean the grill:
Use a vacuum with an attachment or brush.
AIR FILTER
The air filter is behind the front grill of the dehumidifier. It
should be checked and cleaned at least every 250 hours of
operation or more often if necessary.
To remove:
Remove the water tank. Grasp the filter edge, and pull it
straight down and out.
To clean:
Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse and let the
filter dry before install it.
NOTE:
DO NOT rinse or put the filter in an automatic dishwasher.
DO NOT operate the dehumidifier without a filter because
dirt and lint will clog it and reduce performance.
WATER TANK
To clean:
Every few weeks, rinse the inside of the
water tank with a mild detergent to prevent
growth of mold, mildew, and bacteria.
Partially fill the tank with clean water and
add a little mild detergent. Swish it around
inside the tank, empty and rinse.
NOTE: DO NOT use dishwasher to clean
the water tank.
To remove:
Remove the tank and pour any water out.
To replace:
Slide the tank into the dehumidifier.
NOTE: The tank must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.
