Read all instructions
before
using this dehumidifier.
To reduce the risk of fire,
electric
shock, or injury to persons when
using your dehumidifier,
follow
basic
precautions,
including
the following:
For Your
Safety
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance. Read product labels for flammability
and other warnings.
Child
Safety
Precautions
Destroy the carton, plastic bags, and any packing
materials immediately
after the
dehumidifier
is unpacked.
Children should never use these items for play.
Do not leave children unattended
in an area where the appliance
is operating.
Do not allow them to sit or stand on the appliance.
Electrical
Information
For your safety and protection,
this dehumidifier
is equipped
with a three-prong
grounding
plug on the power cord. Do not, under
any circumstances,
cut or
remove
the round
ground
prong
from
the plug.
Your dehumidifier
must
be plugged
directly
into
a properly
grounded
and
polarized three-prong
receptacle. If the wall receptacle you intend to use will not
accept
a three-prong
plug,
or if you are not sure the outlet
is adequately
grounded
or protected
by a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified
electrician
install the proper outlet according to the National
Electrical Code and
applicable
local codes and ordinances.
Do not use an extension
cord
or an
adapter
plug.
Never unplug the dehumidifier
by pulling
on the power cord. Always grip the
plug firmly and pull straight
out from the receptacle.
Do not pinch, bend, or knot the power cord.
Location
Selecting
a Location
IMPORTANT:
1. Dehumidifier
must be operated
in an enclosed
area to be most
effective.
Close all doors,
windows,
and other
outside
openings
to the room.
The
effectiveness
of the
dehumidifier
depends
on the
rate
at which
new
moisture-laden
air enters
the
room.
2. Place dehumidifier
in a location
that does not restrict
airflow
through
the
front
of the unit or out of the louvers
on the sides of cabinet.
3. 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. It may be necessary
to install
a second
dehumidifier
in the
enclosed
area
for
satisfactory
drying.
4. The dehumidifier
must
be installed
on a level floor
that
will support
it
with
a full
bucket
of water.
5. There
should
be a minimum
of 12 inches clearance
around
the dehumi-
difier.
How
It Works
When
the unit is started,
the fan begins to pull
moisture-laden
air across the
dehumidifying
coils. The coils condense or draw moisture from the air, and air flows
through
the side louvers into the room as dry, warm air. Moisture
removed from air
is collected
in a bucket on the front of the dehumidifier.
The unit is designed
to operate between
41°F (5°C), and 96°F (35°C).
If the unit is switched
off and needs to be switched
on again, wait three minutes
before doing so.
Make sure the tank is fitted
correctly otherwise
unit will not turn on.
