CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Always switch off the unit and unplug it from the mains before cleaning or
performing any maintenance. When it is not in use for long periods, it is advised to
remove the plug from the power socket. Do not use chemical solvents (such as
benzene, alcohol or gasoline) as they may cause irreversible damage to the unit.
Filter Cleaning
The Air-inlet may gather dust easily, please clean it often with a soft, damp cloth.
If the filter is covered by dust, the airflow and the performance of the unit will be
affected, it may even cause damage to the unit. We recommend that you
regularly clean the filters. The dehumidifier must be disconnected from the
socket before maintenance and the filters must be allowed to fully dry before re
use.
1.
Remove the filters from the unit, and remove the dust.
2.
Clean the carbon (Optional) and the mesh filter with a vacuum cleaner or
soft-brush.
3.
If dirt and grease is accumulated wash the mesh filter in hot soapy water.
4.
Replace the filters once dry in position as shown in the diagram.
Note: Never use the unit without the antibacterial mesh dust filter. The active
carbon filter is
optional and should be replaced if necessary after 1-1 ½
years of usage.
Clean the Grill and Case
Use water and a mild detergent to clean the
washable mesh filters. Do not use bleach or
use abrasives. Do not splash water directly
onto the main unit. Doing so may cause an
electrical shock and can lead to the insulation
to deteriorate, or cause the unit to rust. The air
intake and outlet grills get soiled easily, so use
a vacuum attachment or soft brush to clean.
Wipe the dehumidifier body with a soft damp
cloth or kitchen towel.
