Review the chart below first and you may not need
call for service.
The follwing symptoms are normal
• For 3 minutes immediately after the unit is
turned off or Power Cord is plugged, the unit
will not operate to protect the compressor.
• If the relative humidity in the room gets below
the level you have selected, the Dehumidifier
will turn itself off.
• When compressor starts to operate,
( 3 minutes after turning the switch ON, or in
AUTO Mode) the noise increases.
• Depending on the angle of Louver, the volume
of noise changes.
• Until coolant circulation gets stabilized, the
sound of coolant may be heard.
• As the temperature of heat exchanger
increases, temporarily a smell may be
generated.
• Since the air that was dehumidified by cooling
gets warm by the condenser, the airflow gets
warm. (There is no cooling function.)
• Press the AUTO Swing Button again.
• This is the water generated in the factory test,
or the trace of water evaporation.
This is normal.
