CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WARNINGS:
•
Before cleaning, turn off the dehumidifier and disconnect it
from the power supply. If you do not do this, you could create
the risk of electrical shock or other safety hazards.
•
Do not wash the dehumidifier with water or submerge the unit
in water at any time. This could cause electrical shock or even a
fire.
•
Do not use harsh detergents to clean the dehumidifier at
any time or else it will strip the paint and damage the unit's
appearance.
CARING FOR THE AIR INTAKE VENT AND OUTER CASING
•
Use a soft, dry towel to wipe down the outer casing and remove
dust. If more cleaning is necessary, use a towel that is damp—
NOT wet—with soapy water.
•
To clean the air intake vent, you should use a dust catcher or
gentle brush.
CARING FOR THE WATER BUCKET
•
Every few weeks, you should remove the water bucket from the
unit and clean it to prevent the growth of mold, mildew, and
bacteria. Use a soft brush to clean the bucket and then rinse it
out.
•
To clean the bucket, you'll first need to remove the handle. Do
this by flipping it up toward the front/top of the bucket so that
the pegs holding it in place are lined up with the holes through
which they are fitted (see the figure below). Then, pull the
bucket plate at the side of the handle in the direction illustrated
below so the pegs come free of the holes and you can remove
the handle.
•
Once the handle is removed, press down the four buckles
surrounding the bucket and lift up the drain lid to remove it.
Then, you can easily reach inside the bucket to clean it.
•
After cleaning the water bucket, replace the drain lid and
handle, and then make sure the float is positioned correctly. The
side with the foam plastic should be beneath the drain lid. Do
not remove the foam plastic on the float.
CARING FOR THE AIR FILTER
•
After 250 hours of operation, the dehumidifier will remind
you to clean the air filter. If you are using the dehumidifier in a
location where dust accumulates more quickly, you will need to
clean the air filter more often.
