CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Care and cleaning of the dehumidifier

Turn the dehumidifier off and remove the plug from
the wall outlet before cleaning.
1. Clean the Grille and Case
● Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or
abrasives.
● Do not splash water directly onto the main unit. Doing so may
cause an electrical shock, cause the insulation to deteriorate,
or cause the unit to rust.
● The air intake and outlet grilles get soiled easily, so use a
vacuum attachment or brush to clean.
2. Clean the bucket
Every few weeks, clean the bucket to prevent growth of mold,
mildew and bacteria. Partially fill the bucket with clean water
and add a little mild detergent. Swish it around in the bucket,
empty and rinse.
NOTE: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the bucket. After
clean, the bucket must be in place and securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate.
