is called the “float.”

piece that is found in the plastic holder part
of the float. (See Fig. 4.) If the piece is

CASTERS
(#2 in diagram above)

• Casters can move freely.
• Never force casters to move over carpet or
move the unit with water in the bucket. (The unit
may tip over and spill water.)
OPERATING THE UNIT
POSITIONING THE UNIT
A dehumidifier operating in one room will have little or no effect in
drying an adjacent enclosed area, such as a closet, or other room
unless there is adequate circulation of air around the area.
• Do not use outdoors.
• This dehumidifier is intended for indoor residential applications
only. This dehumidifier should not be used for commercial or
industrial applications.
• Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor, strong enough
to support the unit with a full bucket of water.
• Allow at least 8 in. (20 cm) of air space all around the unit for
proper air circulation 16” or more from the top of the unit.
• Place the unit 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 (5°C), which may reduce performance
and cause an error code.
• Place the unit away from the clothes dryer, heater
or radiator.
• Use the dehumidifier to prevent moisture damage anywhere books
or valuables are stored.
• Use the dehumidifier in a basement to help prevent
moisture damage.
• The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be
most effective.
• Close all doors, windows and other outside openings in the space
that you wish to dehumidify.
WHEN USING THE UNIT
A dehumidifier operating in one room will have little or no effect in drying an adjacent enclosed area, such as a closet, or
other room unless there is adequate circulation of air entering and exiting the area.
•
WHEN FIRST USING THE DEHUMIDIFIER, OPERATE THE UNIT ON “CONTINUOUS” MODE FOR 24 HOURS.
NOTE:
After the first 24 hours, should you wish to set a desired humidity, you will need to take the unit off of
CONTINUOUS. You will not be able to select a desired humidity while the unit is set on CONTINUOUS mode.
• This unit is designed to operate in a working environment between 41°F/5°C and 95°F/35°C.
• If the unit has been switched off and needs to be switched on again quickly, allow approximately 3 minutes for the
correct operation to resume.
•
DO NOT
connect the dehumidifier to a multiple socket outlet that is being used for other electrical appliances.
• Select a suitable location, making sure you have easy access to an electrical outlet.
• Plug the unit into an electrical outlet with a grounding connection.
• Make sure the water bucket is correctly fitted or the unit will not operate properly.
•
NOTE:
DO NOT
attempt to move the dehumidifier when there is water in the bucket. The unit may tip over and spill water
or damage unit.
