MODES OF OPERATION
Dehumidification mode
• Plug the equipment into an appropriate outlet;
• Make sure that the “condensation collection tank full” LED is
off.
Mirage - Mirage combi - Mirage plus
• Turn the “humidity adjustment” knob to the maximum
dehumidification position ( / );
• Press the “ON-OFF” push button and the dehumidifier will start;
• The fan starts at the minimum speed; if the fan speed is to be
increased, press the “air speed selection” push button once.
Note: the greater the speed of the fan, the greater the
capacity of dehumidifying the air
When the room humidity has been lowered to the desired level,
slowly turn the “dehumidification adjustment” knob counter
clockwise until the compressor stops; in this way you will have
adjusted the unit to automatically maintain the desired level of
humidity.
Mirage S
• Turn the “humidity adjustment” knob to the maximum
dehumidification position ( ); by this way, the operation
is simultaneously enabled.
Note: the fan and the compressor will start after a technical
time set by the manufacturer; the “ON indication” LED will
be on.
When the desired room humidity is reached, slowly turn the
“dehumidification adjustment” knob counter clockwise until the
compressor/fan stops and the led is off; in this way you will
have adjusted the unit to automatically maintain the desired
level of humidity.
Combi mode
(Mirage Combi only)
• Plug the equipment into an appropriate outlet;
• Make sure that the “condensation collection tank full” LED is off;
• Turn the “humidity adjustment” knob to the maximum
dehumidification position ( );
• Press the “ON-OFF” push button and the dehumidifier will start;
• Press the “running mode” push button until the two LEDs that
correspond to the “Combi” running mode are lit.The fan will
run at maximum speed in this running mode;
• Press the “electronic thermostat” push button and select the
desired temperature.
When the room humidity has been lowered to the desired level,
slowly turn the “dehumidification adjustment” knob counter
clockwise until the compressor stops; in this way you will have
adjusted the unit to automatically maintain the desired level of
humidity.
When the desired room temperature is reached, the electronic
thermostat will automatically control the operation of the heating
element to maintain the right temperature in the room.
If the running mode is changed from Dehumidification to Combi
or vice versa, it may be necessary to reposition the “humidity
adjustment knob” in order to achieve the same degree of
dehumidification.
Heating mode
(Mirage Combi only)
• Plug the equipment into an appropriate outlet;
• Make sure that the “condensation collection tank full” LED is
off;
• Press the “ON-OFF” push button and the dehumidifier will start;
• Press the “running mode” push button until only the “heating”
LED remains lit; in this running mode the fan runs at maximum
speed;
• Press the “electronic thermostat” push button and select the
desired temperature.
When the desired room temperature is reached, the electronic
thermostat will automatically control the operation of the heating
element to maintain the right temperature in the room.
Condensation collection tank
The dehumidifier is automatically stopped when the
condensation collection tank is full, regardless of the running
mode in use; the corresponding LED on the control panel will
light up when this occurs.
For the dehumidifier to begin running again you will need to
empty the condensation collection tank as described below:
• open the filter holder grid by pulling the right-hand side of the
grid outwards;
• lift and remove the tank, using the extraction handle (Fig.B)
situated at the bottom until the handle used for carrying the
tank (Fig.C) can be easily reached.
The equipment is provided with an anti-drip device that is
activated to prevent the bottom of the dehumidifier from getting
wet when the condensation collection tank is removed.
• Empty the condensation collection tank;
• Check that the water has been drained also from the floater
base (Fig.D);
• Put the condensation collection tank back into place, pushing
it inwards.
If the degree of humidity of the air is greater than the degree of
humidity selected (with the humidity adjustment knob), the
dehumidifier will start automatically in the running mode
previously selected.
Note: Do not force the door while attempting to remove the
condensation collection tank; the equipment will not run
without the tank in place.
Room Humidity Indication
(Mirage Plus only)
By plugging the unit into an outlet, the “humidity control” display will
turn on and show the room humidity (also when the machine is off).
The range displayed is between 30% and 80% .
Beyond these limits, the display could show a flashing message
“LLL” (see the troubleshooting table).
