Your dehumidifer features a removable Air Filter, located at the front of
the unit (behind the air intake grill) directly above the water tank
compartment.
The air filter plays an important role in helping to reduce (minimize)
dust/dirt particles from the surrounding environment. A blocked/clogged air
filter reduces air intake, impacting negatively on operating efficiency.
To maintain maximum operating efficiency:
• The filter must be checked and cleaned regularly (every 2 weeks)
• More frequent cleaning may be required depending upon indoor air
quality.
IMPORTANT: Never operate the unit without the air filter in place.
AIR FILTER REMOVAL:
1) Grasp the filter handle, and pull the filter out. The filter will slide out
easily (see Fig. 2)
2) Clean the filter thoroughly using a vacuum cleaner or wash using
lukewarm water and mild detergent. Dry thoroughly before re-installing.
3) To re-install the air filter, slide the filter back inside the tracks and push
inward.
