IF YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER FAILS TO
OPERATE
1.
Check that the plug is fully pushed into the
socket and is switched on.
2.
Check with some other electrical device that
the wall socket is “live”. If it is not, contact
a
qualified electrician.
3.
Check the fuse in the plug. If you replace the
fuse, refit with a 13Amp fuse.
Should none of
the above remedies work, then
disconnect from the mains. Contact the help line
on 01388 664400
. DO NOT attempt to repair the
unit or unscrew the outer casing.
Your Ebac Dehumidifier is packed in a
plastic wrapper –
please ensure that it is
disposed of safely and where it will not
be a danger to children
SWITCHING ON YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER
Simply connect the dehumidifier to a
standard 230V main
s supply and switch the
supply on. The u
nit will then start
immediately.
To protect the compressor, you should allow
5 minutes between switching the
dehumidifier off and on again.
DEFROST OPERATION
At certain temperatures, the water
taken
freezes onto the pipes inside your
dehumidifier and therefore needs to be
defrosted. This model features an automatic
defrost which will clear any ice build up.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
If the appliance is fitted with a plug for which your
socket is unsuitable, then it should be cut off
and
an appropriate plug fitted.
INTRODUCTION
Your Ebac Dehumidifier is designed to help
dry flooded or damp areas. Ideal where
natural drying is just too slow. Drying with a
dehumidifier enables fast drying without
problems assosiated with heat drying p
laster,
etc can crack.
HOW YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER WORKS
Your dehumidifier draws in the moist air,
cooling it to a temperature where excess
moisture will condense, thereby removing the
excess moisture. This in turn dries anything
in the immediate area which i
s damp. The
moisture is
collected via a drip tray and
drained via a drainage hose. The air is re-
warmed and passed back approximately 2°C
warmer.
OPERATING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER
The amount of moisture removed by your
dehumidifier will vary according to the
conditions in which it is operating. For
example, operating in very cold temperatures
will reduce water extraction levels.
The time taken to dry an area will depend on
t
he size of area to be dried and level of
moisture to begin with. To achieve maximum
benefit form your dehumidifier, you should
ensure :-
a)
It is permanently connected to the mains
b)
Door to areas not to be dried are kept
closed.
c) External doors and windows are
kept
closed as much as possible.
