IMPORTANT:
1.Dehumidifier must be operatedinan enclosedareato be most effective. Closeall doors,
windows, and otheroutsideopeningsto the room. The effectiveness ofthe 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 left side 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 dehumidifier.
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 top 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). The unit will not work
properly if the temperature
is out of this temperature
range, or the performance
of the unit will
fall greatly.
The "Compressor"
circuit has an automatic
3 minute time delayed start if the unit is turned off
and on quickly. This prevents overheating
of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping.
Make sure the tank is fitted correctly otherwise unit will not turn on.
