Proper installation
and electrical grounding is important for obtaining the best possible results from your
dehumidifier.
This section tells you how to install your unit and how to connect it to the proper electrical
supply.
Installing
it properly
Personal
Injury Hazard
Because your dehumidifier weighs between
50 Ibs. (22.5 kg) and 75 Ibs. (33.75 kg),
depending
on the amount of water collected
in the pan, it is recommended
that you use
proper lifting techniques
when lifting or
moving your unit.
Failure to do so could result in personal
injury.
1. Allow at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) of space on
all sides of the unit for good air circulation.
2. Install the unit on a floor, table or shelf. When
installing the unit on a table or shelf, be sure it
is strong enough to support the unit with a full
pan of water. A table or shelf may be a better
position from which to handle the water pan.
Do not sit or stand on this product. The height
of a table or shelf may help prevent icing of
coils due to colder air near the floor (such as
can be found in a basement).
3. Keep all outside doors, windows and other
openings closed when dehumidifier
is operat-
ing. Humid outdoor air will add to the
dehumidifier's
operating load.
4. The water pan must be properly
positioned,
on the hangers inside the cabinet, when
dehumidifier
is operating in order for the
automatic shut-off to operate correctly.
5. On most models, two rollers let you move the
dehumidifier
easily. Remove the water pan, tilt
the unit forward and roll it to another position.
If your model does not have rollers, pick up
the unit to move it to another position.
