Operation and Performance
Defrosting operation
The evaporator within the dehumidifier builds up ice during the dehumidifying operation at room temperature of
approx. 15℃or less. For removing ice the defrosting device works automatically at an interval of approx. 30
minutes or more (for duration of approx. 5 minutes).
■ Both the dehumidifying function and the air cleaning function stop during the defrosting operation.
■ Do not disconnect the plug of the unit or turn off the unit during the defrosting operation.
This dehumidifier is not suitable for keeping the humidity very low (approx. 50 % RH or less)
This dehumidifier is designed to remove uncomfortable humidity in daily life and for auxiliary drying of washed
clothes indoors. It is not suitable for keeping the humidity very low.
Room temperature rises during the operation.
This dehumidifier does not have a cooling function. It produces heat during the operation and room temperature
rises by 1 C to 4 C. The temperature gets higher while it is operated in a closet, or the like. Furthermore, room
temperature rises because doors and windows are closed and heat is produced from other appliances in the room
and the sun radiation.
