Operation Instructions 1. Position Your Dehumidifier Properly • Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor that is strong enough to support the dehumidifier with a full bucket of water. • To maintain efficiency, operate the dehumidifier in an enclosed area. Keep nearby doors and windows closed. • Maintain a minimum clearance of 20 cm (8 inches) on the sides and back of the dehumidifier and 40 cm (16 inches) on the top of the dehumidifier to allow for proper air circulation.
Small Font Digital Number (73 °F on the above illustration) is temperature reading of the inlet air which is similar to the room temperature. However, if the timer function has been activated, the small font digital number will turn to display and countdown the time remaining. Fan Icon: The fan icon illuminates when the fan is running. The fan icon rotates fast when the fan speed was set to high, and the fan icon rotates slowly when the fan speed was set to low.
HUMIDITY Button • Press the HUMIDITY button repeatedly to adjust the set a target humidity percentage value during normal DEHUMIDIFY mode. The big font number will flash when changes are being made. • The humidity can be set between 30-80% in 5% increments. For drier air, set the humidity to a lower number. For damper air, set the humidity to a higher number. NOTE: The HUMIDITY button will be disabled in the DRY-CLOTHES mode and the FAN mode.
Step 1: Plug the power cord into a properly grounded 110-120 volt AC outlet. Note: Once plugged in, the control panel will light up for a second and then turn off. You’ll need to press the POWER Button to turn the dehumidifiers on. Step 2: Press the POWER button to turn the dehumidifier on. The dehumidifier will run in the default setting of 30% set humidity at low fan speed in the normal DEHUMIDIFY mode. The LCD screen displays the room humidity and temperature reading.
How to use the DRY-CLOTHES mode better? · Hang the clothes in a small room; (Maintain a suitable distance between the clothes and the dehumidifier to make sure no water will drip into the dehumidifier) · Close the windows and doors; · Run the dehumidifier at DRY-CLOTHES mode. 3) FAN mode Press the FAN button to run the dehumidifier in the FAN mode. In the FAN mode, the compressor will not kick in, only the fan runs. Therefore, in the FAN mode, the HUMIDITY button is disabled.
5. Smart Functions Auto Shut Off When the bucket is full and/or the set humidity level is reached, the dehumidifier will shut off automatically. 1) When the water bucket is full, the LCD will display an E7 code, the FULL icon will illuminate and the dehumidifier will make a beep sound for a few seconds. 2) When the room humidity is down to the set-point, the 3 water-droplets icon and the humidity reading on the LCD will flash.
2) Continuous Draining Water can be automatically emptied into a floor drain by attaching the included drain hose. (NOTE: You can use any other hoses with inner diameter of 0.39 inches instead.) To Achieve Continuous Drain by Gravity: a. Remove the water bucket; b. Find the drain port on the back of the dehumidifier; c. Attach one end of drain hose to the drain port securely; d. Replace the water bucket in the dehumidifier properly; e.
Care & Cleaning To avoid possible electric shock, ensure to turn the dehumidifier off and disconnect the plug from the power source before before performing any cleaning or maintenance. 1. Clean the Vent and Case • Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or abrasives. • Do not splash water directly onto the dehumidifier. Doing so may cause an electric shock or the insulation to deteriorate, or cause the dehumidifier to rust.
