Electrical Information

• For your safety and protection, this dehumidifier is equipped with a three-prong grounding

plug on the power cord. Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the round ground

prong from the plug.

, Your dehumidifier must be plugged directly into a properly grounded and polarized

three-prong receptacle. If the wall receptacle you intend to use will not accept a

three-prong plug, or if you are not sure the outlet is adequately grounded or protected

by a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified electrician install the proper outlet

according to the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances. Do not

use an extension cord or an adapter plug.

° Never unplug the dehumidifier by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly

and pull straight out from the receptacle.

• DO not pinch, bend, or knot the power cord.

Location

How It Works

Selecting a Location

IMPORTANT:

1.Dehumidifiermust be operatedinan enclosedarea to be most effective.Closealldoors,

windows, and otheroutsideopeningsto the room. The effectivenessofthe dehumidifier

depends on the rate at which new moisture-laden air enters the room.

2. Place dehumidifier in a location that does not restrict airflow through the front of the unit or

out of the louvers on the left side of cabinet.

3. A dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little or no effect in drying an adjacent

enclosed storage area, such as a closet, unless there is adequate circulation of air in and out

of the area. It may be necessary to install a second dehumidifier in the enclosed area for

satisfactory drying.

4. The dehumidifier must be installed on a level floor that will support it with a full bucket of

water.

5. There should be a minimum of 12 inches clearance around the dehumidifier.

When the unit is started, the fan begins to pull moisture-laden air across the dehumidifying coils.

The coils condense or draw moisture from the air, and air flows through the side louvers into the

room as dry, warm air. Moisture removed from air is collected in a bucket on the front of the

dehumidifier.

The unit is designed to operate between 41 °F (5 °C), and 96 °F(35 °C).

The "Compressor" circuit has an automatic 3 minute time delayed start if the unit is turned off

and on quickly. This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping.

Make sure the tank is fitted correctly otherwise unit will not turn on.
