hazards, do not immerse any
part of the dehumidifier in
water or other liquids. Do not
use the dehumidifier in the
immediate surroundings of
a bath, shower or swimming
pool.
• The appliance shall be
stored in a room without
continuously operating
ignition sources (such as
open flames, an operating
gas appliance or an
operating electric heater).
• Do not pierce or burn the
dehumidifier.
• Be aware that refrigerants
may not contain an odour.

• Do not unplug the
dehumidifier by pulling on
the cord. Use the plug to
disconnect.
• Never block the air openings,
grilles and outlets, or place
on a soft surface such as
a bed or sofa as this could

WHAT IS A 2IN1 DEHUMIDIFIER
WITH AIR PURIFIER?
The Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect (LAD708)
is a Dehumidifier and Air Purifier in one.
The Dehumidifier function is to extract
moisture to reduce and maintain humidity
levels in the environment to provide a level of
comfort in your surroundings. Excess moisture
in an environment is problematic and can
develop into mould and mildew.
The Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect is efficient
for large rooms and has high dehumidifying
ability to extract 21L of water volume daily and
a large 6.5L water tank.
The Air Purifier’s function is to clean the air of
impurities such as airborne allergens and dust
particles. The Air Purification function can be
used with dehumidification or purify only.
How the Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect Works?
The Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect regulates the
relative humidity of your home by extracting
moisture to reduce and maintain humidity
levels in the environment, passing it over
cooled evaporator coils causing the moisture
to condense into water. The water is dispensed
into the water tank or through the drainage
hose. During this process, the Air Purifier
filters and cleans the air through the 3 stage
air filtration to deliver cleaner air back into the
surrounding environment.
What is Relative Humidity?
Relative humidity is the amount of water
vapour in the air and it is commonly expressed
as a percentage of the maximum amount of
water vapour that the air can hold at a given
temperature. A comfortable %RH level is
commonly considered to be between
40-60%RH.
BREVILLE HOME CONNECT
The Breville Smart Dry 2in1 Viral Protect may
