OPERATION
•
Plug the mains lead into a 13 Amp mains socket.
•
If connecting via an extension lead, make sure that the lead is rated at
5 Amps or more, and that it is fully unwound.

•
Switch the appliance on at the mains socket. Then press the
POWER
switch
to start operation.

button to select the
operating
mode.
Normally,
use
the
MEDIUM setting, change to LOW to reduce
the operating noise, or to HIGH for rapid
drying of laundry.
•
Press the
HUMIDITY
button to set the
required humidity level on the display. The
level can be set to 40%, 50% or 60%. The
appliance will remove humidity from the air
whenever the humidity level is higher that
the set level.

switch to turn the appliance OFF
first)
•
Check the appliance regularly for damage and cease using it immediately if
any damage to the product, the cable or the mains plug is found.

The appliance operates best if it is in an enclosed area. Close all doors and
windows, and eliminate sources of additional humiditiy, such as cooking,
clothes drying. Cover fish tanks.

The most comfortable setting for the humidity level is around 50%.
