SAFETY INFORMATION
ATTENTION
This dehumidifier must not be used in rooms under the following conditions:
- Potentially explosive atmosphere
- Aggressive atmospheres
- Featuring a high concentration of solvents
- An extremely high ratio of dust
Keep Children Away:
Do not allow children to play with or around this unit, which could result in injury. Be
sure the unit is inaccessible to children when not attended.
Keep Unit Grounded
: Always operate the unit with a grounding plug and a grounded electrical outlet. A
grounding plug is an essential safety feature that helps reduce the risk of shock or fire.
Protect Power Cord from Damage:
Never operate a unit with a damaged power cord, as this may lead to
electrical or fire hazards. If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a cord of the same type
and amperage rating by a qualified Meaco service engineer.
Extension Cords:
Extension cords must be grounded and able to deliver the appropriate voltage to the unit.
Handle with Care:
Do not drop, throw or crash the dehumidifier. Rough treatment can damage the
components or wiring and create a hazardous condition.
Run on Stable Surface:
Always operate the unit on a stable, level surface, for example the floor or a strong
counter, so that the dehumidifier cannot fall and cause injury.
Keep Out of Water:
Never operate the unit in pooled or standing water, as this may create a risk of injury
from electrical shock. Do not store or operate outdoors. If electrical wiring or components become wet,
thoroughly dry them before using the unit. If in doubt do not use the dehumidifier and consult a qualified
electrician or a Meaco approved engineer.
Do not let water drip onto the dehumidifier:
When using the dehumidifier to dry clothes ensure that no
water from the clothes can drip onto or into the dehumidifier.
Do not use in a bathroom:
Dry your bathroom by placing the dehumidifier outside of the room with the
bathroom door open. Do not use your dehumidifier inside the bathroom.
Keep Air Intakes Clear:
Do not clog or block the air intakes by placing the dehumidifier too close to curtains,
walls or anything that will restrict the air inlet. This may cause the unit to overheat and result in a fire or electrical
hazard.
Keep the filter clean:
There is a filter on the air inlet to stop dust from getting inside the dehumidifier. If you
allow the dust and dirt to build up on the filter then you will increase the pressure on the fan motor and you will
reduce the amount of water extracted from the air. Not cleaning the filter reduces the lifespan of the
dehumidifier, increases energy consumption and decreases water extraction. Please examine and clean the
filter weekly.
Keep Electrical Components Dry:
Never allow water inside the dehumidifier's electrical components. If these
areas become wet for any reason, thoroughly dry them before using the dehumidifier. If in doubt do not use
the dehumidifier and consult a qualified electrician or a Meaco approved engineer.
The operator must
make these operating instructions available for all users of this dehumidifier and make sure
that they understand how to use the machine safely.
