1. GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION The operator must provide the user with the operating instructions and ensure that the user understands the contents. - The appliance contains a mildly flammable refrigerant. - This is a blend of a mildly flammable (A2L) and a fluorinated (A1) refrigerant.
Page 4
WARNING Risk of fire/flammable materials WARNINGS - Do not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other than those recommended by the manufacturer. - The appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operating ignition sources (for example: open flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
Page 5
- Any person who is involved with working on or breaking into a refrigerant circuit should hold a current valid certificate from an industry-accredited assessment authority, which authorizes their competence to handle refrigerants safely in accordance with industry’s recognized assessment specification. - Servicing shall only be performed as recommended by the equipment manufacturer.

4. Checking for presence of refrigerant The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and during work, to ensure the technician is aware of potentially flammable atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use with flammable refrigerants, i.e.

is carried out. The ventilation should safely disperse any released refrigerant and preferably expel it externally into the atmosphere. 8. Checks to the refrigeration equipment Where electrical components are being changed, they shall be fit for the purpose and to the correct specification. At all times the manufacturer's maintenance and service guidelines shall be followed.

If the fault cannot be corrected immediately but it is necessary to continue operation, an adequate temporary solution shall be used. This shall be reported to the owner of the equipment so all parties are advised. Initial safety checks shall include: - That capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of sparking;...

NOTE: The use of silicon sealant may inhibit the effectiveness of some types of leak detection equipment. Intrinsically safe components do not have to be isolated prior to working on them. Repair to intrinsically safe components Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring that this will not exceed the permissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment in use.
Page 10
Leak detection methods The following leak detection methods are deemed acceptable for systems containing flammable refrigerants. Electronic leak detectors shall be used to detect flammable refrigerants, but the sensitivity may not be adequate, or may need re-calibration. (Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area.) Ensure that the detector is not a potential source of ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant used.

Purge the circuit with inert gas; Evacuate; Purge again with inert gas; Open the circuit by cutting or brazing. The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders. The system shall be flushed with OFN to render the unit safe.
Page 12
Prior to recharging the system it shall be pressure tested with OFN. The system shall be leak tested on completion of charging but prior to commissioning. A follow up leak test shall be carried out prior to leaving the site. Decommissioning Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely familiar with the equipment and all its detail.

g) Start the recovery machine and operate in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. h) Do not overfill cylinders. (No more than 80 % volume liquid charge). i) Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily. j) When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process completed, make sure that the cylinders and the equipment are removed from site promptly and all isolation valves on the equipment are closed off.

in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible, cooled before recovery occurs. The recovery equipment shall be in good working order with a set of instructions concerning the equipment that is at hand and shall be suitable for the recovery of flammable refrigerants. In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good working order.
2. APPLIANCE RELEVANT SAFETY INFORMATION ATTENTION This dehumidifier must not be used in rooms under the following conditions: - Potentially explosive atmosphere - Aggressive atmospheres - Featuring a high concentration of solvents - An extremely high ratio of dust Keep Unit Grounded: Always operate the unit with a grounding plug and a grounded electrical outlet.
Page 16
Keep Out of Water: Never operate the unit in pooled or standing water, as this may create a risk of injury from electrical shock. Do not store or operate outdoors. If electrical wiring or components become wet, thoroughly dry them before using the unit. If in doubt do not use the dehumidifier and consult a qualified technician or a vendors approved engineer.
3. GENERAL ADVICE Before putting your dehumidifier into operation for the first time, the instructions manual should be studied carefully. After receiving the unit, you should check your dehumidifier for any transport damage. In case of damage, you should inform the sender immediately. Transport damages should be stated after unpacking the equipment.
6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ATTENTION - Operate the dehumidifier only in the upright position. - Plug in to a standard outlet with the correct voltage and amperage for the unit. - Allow five minutes before restarting after the unit shuts off for any reason. This will avoid damaging the compressor. - Check dehumidifier daily for correct operation.
7. ELECTRONIC CONTROL This unit is equipped with an electronic control system. The individual LEDs and corresponding symbols have the following meaning: 1 - ON/OFF key (standby key) to switch the 4 - +/- key for setting the target humidity value dehumidifier on and off 2 - Operation indicator - LED lights up when the 5 - TANK indicator LED lights up ->...

Coupling the radio humidity transmitter with the dehumidifier Menu Ad: Here you can couple the radio humidity transmitter to the unit. You can choose between 256 address codes. On the radio humidity transmitter, the setting is made with the 8-digit coding switch. You can find the corresponding address code in the unit in the enclosed list.
Remove the tanks from the machine. In the special menu, use the set key to jump to menu A0 and activate the direct drainage mode / condensate pump (A1) with the “- % RH”. When the direct drainage mode / condensate pump is activated the red tank LED blinks continuously.
Connect the dehumidifier and set the desired humidity. 10. ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS This dehumidifier was designed to operate in a 220-240 V~50Hz electrical installation. Make sure that the electric sockets are connected to earth and that all safety precautions are taken. 11.
13. TROUBLESHOOTING Trouble Cause Solution No power to the unit Plug in the unit; check power at outlet Unit does not operate Water tank must be emptied and Completely filled water tank installed again Under this condition the dehumidifier becomes Ambient temperature is lower than inefficient.
