OPERATING THE UNIT

Positioning the unit

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.
● Do not use outdoors.
● This dehumidifer is intended for indoor residential applications only.
This dehumidifier should not be used for commercial or industrial
applications.
● Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor strong enough to
support the unit with a full bucket of water.
● Allow at least 20cm of air space on all sides of the unit for good air
circulation.
● Place the unit in an area where the temperature will not fall
below 5°C(41°F). The coils can become covered with frost at
temperatures below 5°C(41°F), which may reduce performance.
● Place the unit away from the clothes dryer, heater or radiator.
● Use the unit to prevent moisture damage anywhere books or
valuables are stored.
● Use the dehumidifier in a basement to help prevent moisture
damage.
● The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most
effective.
● Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.

When using the unit

● When first using the dehumidifier, operate the unit continuously 24
hours.
● This unit is designed to operate with a working environment
between 5°C/41°F and 32°C/90°F, and between 30%(RH) and
80%(RH).
● If the unit has been switched off and needs to be switched on again
quickly, allow approximately three minutes for the correct operation
to resume.
● Do not connect the dehumidifier to a multiple socket outlet, which is
also being used for other electrical appliances.
● Select a suitable location, making sure you have easy access to an
electrical outlet.
● Plug the unit into a electrical socket-outlet with earth connection.
● Make sure the Water bucket is correctly fitted otherwise the unit will
not operate properly.
NOTE: When the water in the bucket reaches to a certain level,
please be careful to move the machine to avoid it falling down.
