Dri Beast refrigerant dehumidifiers operate by pulling moist air in across a very cold
evaporator core. The moisture condenses (freezes) on the coil. At intervals, the machine will go
into defrost mode, warming the frost back to water. The water collects in a tray and leaves the
unit through a drain hose or pump.
HOW THE LGR UNIT WORKS
IMPORTANT! Before moving the unit, make sure there's no water in the pump.
For best results, operate your dehumidifiers in an enclosed area, as this creates a drying
chamber. Close all doors and windows that open to the outside to maximize the unit's water
removal efficiency. Also, keep traffic though the drying chamber to a minimum. Place your
dehumidifier against a wall, away from obstructions, and keep it away from anything that
could block airflow into and out of the unit.

1. Your dehumidifier is designed for easy use and maintenance. Make sure that the filter is
properly installed before use.
2. Keep the unit's air inlet and outlet grids at least 4 inches away from any wall.
3. Select a flat, stable surface to place the unit. Do not place on or near heat sources such as
stoves, radiators, or heaters, or in direct sunlight.
4. Do not use the unit in places where chemicals are stored. Volatile chemicals might damage
the unit and make the pump leak.
NOTE: Do not tilt the unit move than 45 degrees to avoid damaging the compressor.
NOTE: If you transport an SIM-Series dehumidifier in a horizontal position, set it upright and
let it stand for at least 30 minutes before you turn it on. When the machine is horizontal, the oil
from the compressor flows into the refrigerant coils reducing the ability of the dehumidifier to
function. Letting the unit stand upright for 30 minutes allows the oil to flow back into the
compressor.

OPERATING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER
IMPORTANT: Always unplug the unit before moving or servicing. Use only the
ON/OFF button to turn the unit on and off.
1. Plug the power cord into a power outlet. Di appears on the HUMIDITY% display.
2. Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit on. The previous humidity setting appears
on the display, then the current humidity appears.
3. Press the HUMIDITY UP or DOWN button to choose the desired humidity. Pressing
the button for 1 second raises the setting in increments of 1%; holding for 2 seconds
or more raises the setting in increments of 5% every second. If the humidity setting is
less than 30%, the unit runs constantly and CO appears on the display.
4. Press the drain button to empty water automatically from pump reservoir.
OPERATING TIPS
1. When the humidity setting is higher than the current room humidity, the unit will not
run. Maintaining the humidity between 45-65% is suggested for best results.
2. When dehumidifying, the fan motor and compressor must run for at least 3 minutes.
NEVER attempt to restart the compressor again within 3 minutes after shutting the
unit off.
3. When operating in low temperatures, the unit automatically determines when it needs
to defrost. When defrosting, the DEFROST indicator comes on and the compressor runs.
The fan motor is not used for defrost.
4. The pump automatically removes the water if the tank is full.
5. Accumulative work time on the display indicates the total number of hours the unit
has been operated.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING! ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD.
Unplug the dehumidifier
before performing any maintenance. Do not immerse in water or any other liquids.
Before Each Use
Inspect the electrical cord for damage. Look for fraying, cuts, etc. Do not use the unit if
you find any. Call your supplier for the nearest Service Center.
Inspect filter. Look for accumulated dust and dirt that would restrict airflow through the 
filter into the unit. If any is visible, vacuum out the debris. Do not wash the filter, as it will
reduce the effectiveness of the electrostatic material.

Storage/ After Each Use
Wipe the enclosure, control panel, and cord with a damp cloth or sponge.
The outlet grid should simply be dusted. It should not be immersed in water.
Use pump Drain button to empty water.
Walk out the hose to drain it completely.
Remove the inlet filter and using gas to blow off the dust on the surface. Do not
rinse or wash the filter. Make sure the filter is completely dry before reinstalling.
Take out the filter
1. Screw out two nuts from front housing, and take off inlet
grid to get the filter. (Figure 3)

3. Place the filer back in the unit.
Cleaning The Filter
Filter should be cleaned once for a month and replace the filter after using for 12 months.
Only need to blow off the dust to cleaning the filter.
To extend the life of the filter when the unit is not sued for a long time, put the filter in a
plastic sealable bag.
