The humidistat works in a similar way to a central heating thermostat, but instead of measuring temperature, it
measures the amount of moisture in the air. You may select the level of moisture you require (known as Relative
Humidity) and the unit will operate to achieve that level and then switch off.
As a general guide, the higher the setting the lower the Relative Humidity will be before the machine switches off.
Therefore the machine will operate longer to achieve this.
If the dehumidifier switches off and drying is not complete it is possible that the humidistat setting is too low and may
need increasing (fig C.). Conversely, if you no longer have condensation and the unit is still operating, then the
humidistat setting may need reducing (fig D.)
At certain temperatures, the water taken freezes onto the pipes inside your dehumidifier and therefore needs to be
defrosted. This model features an automatic defrost which will clear any ice build up.
When the water container is full an internal float mechanism will switch the unit off. This is indicated by the illumination
of the "full" light on the front control panel. The water container is at the rear of the unit. To empty the container,
carefully remove the water container. When emptied replace
When your dehumidifier is to be used constantly in one area, it can be fitted to drain continuously, eliminating the need
to empty the water container. Ideal when the property is to be left unoccupied.
For this you will need a length of PVC tubing, 18mm external diameter X 12mm internal diameter and a hose clip of
the same size. Disconnect your dehumidifier from the power supply before fitting permanent drainage.
Remove the water container and pass the tube through the hole in the base of the dehumidifier. Place the hose clip on
the tubing and push the tubing over the outlet on the underside of the drain tray and fasten the hose clip. DO NOT
over tighten the clip or it may crack the drain tray. The water container should not be replaced whilst the drainage kit is
in use.
When in use tubing should be run to a suitable drainage point, ensuring that the tube doesn't rise above the drain tray,
otherwise flooding may occur.
