Power Button Press the power button to turn the dehumidier on and off.
Swing control Button Press once to make the louvres swing and press again
to lock at 45 degrees, press again to lock at 90 degrees. Do not operate the unit if the self-
opening louvers do not open when the unit is powered on.
Timer Button: Press the timer button then use buttons
to adjust the timer (1-24 hrs, start/ stopping timer). In power on mode the set number
will represent the number of hours the unit will run for before turning off. This will remain
unaffected if unit goes in to defrost mode or the tank is emptied than reinserted. In standby
mode the set number represents the period in hours after which the unit will start. To
cancel the timer press the timer button again.
SMART Mode: This is designed for maximum convenience as it
maintains the room at an ideal domestic environment humidity
level of 50-55% RH while saving electricity. This is the default
mode and is recommended for most users.
The compressor will work until the desired humidity is reached
and then will stop;
Low Fan Mode: The fan will move the air around the room ensuring the entire air in the
room is processed and the relative humidity correctly measured. This mode gives you
the ability to adjust the desired humidity, while running the fan at a lower speed.
High Fan Mode: The fan will move the air around the room ensuring the entire air in
the room is processed and the relative humidity correctly measured. This mode gives
you the ability to adjust the desired humidity, while running the fan at the high speed.
Allowing more air to pass over the coils than in low fan speed.
Laundry Mode: for the dehumidifier to operate continuously with maximum water
extraction until the tank is full, set the unit to High Fan mode and set the desired
humidity level to 35%-50% RH. 35% is very dry and the unit will work until water tank is
full as 35%RH is hardly achievable in UK domestic environment. The louvres should be
set to either swing mode or to 45 degrees directing the airow onto clothes / laundry.
Do not place clothes directly over the dehumidier vents. Make sure that there are no
obstructions to either the hot air exhaust air ow, or the air inlet. For best results place
the laundry within 1.5 meters of the dehumidier.

Please Note: If a permanent drainage pipe is fitted, the unit will not stop operation.
Setting the desired humidity to around 35% is good for a drying boost, on the units initial
run, or in emergencies. It is not recommended to use it with these settings for normal
operation in domestic/ ofce environment over a long period of time, as the air may become
uncomfortably dry.
For allowing more moisture in the air, press the humidity button to set to a higher percentage
value (e.g. 60-70%).
Humidity set to 50-55% RH - Recommended setting, great for domestic operation and dry
storage.
Humidity set to 60% RH - Great for personal comfort and applications where 50% RH is
considered too dry.
Humidity set to 70% RH - Ideal for unoccupied properties or where an economical run is
needed without the need to go drier than 70% RH

Tank Full Light
The red light will illuminate and the unit will beep when the tank is ready to be emptied, or
if the water tank is incorrectly inserted. The water level control will shut off the dehumidier
until the empty tank is replaced in its proper position
Auto Defrost
The appliance will defrost automatically as programmed once the coil sensor detects
temperature is too low in order to prevent ice building inside the unit. When frost builds up on
the evaporator coils, the compressor will cycle off and the unit will go in to defrost mode. The
defrost indicator led will turn on to show defrost mode is active. Normal operation will resume
after the defrost mode has completed.
Humidistat control and fan/ compressor operation
When the selected humidity is 2% lower than the user selected humidistat setting; the
dehumidier’s compressor will be shut off automatically but the fan will still move to ensure
air is not stale in the room. The unit will use only a minimal amount of energy in fan mode.
When the humidity is equal or higher than user selected humidity the compressor will restart
once the 3 minutes delay compressor protection expires.
Auto-Restart (on some models)
If the unit stops unexpectedly due to the power cut, it will restart with the previous function
selected automatically when the power resumes.
Power
After the unit has stopped, it is not recommended to resume operation for at least 10
minutes. This is to protect the compressor. Operation can resume after this period lapses.
When the unit is restarted there is a 3 minutes delay before compressor will start, to help
prolong the life of your purchase.
Lightweight Portable Design on castors
The dehumidier is built to be compact and lightweight. The castors on the bottom of the
unit make it easy to move from room to room. Your dehumidier is an advanced micro-CPU
controlled device capable of self-diagnostics. The LCD display may also show the error and
protection codes.

the room.
14

Other Features on the remote:
Room temperature / humidity display – Your smart remote includes an inbuilt humidistat,
allowing the humidity of the area to be measured from the remote. The humidity reading
shown on the remote is the one measured by the remote, rather than transmitted from the
dehumidier.
Please note: This sensor works on natural airow, and as such it will take more time than
the dehumidier to reach an accurate reading. Due to this and the different positioning of the
remote the reading on the remote may differ from the gure shown on the dehumidier.
“FOLLOW ME” Mode – The dehumidier will work from the humidity reading taken by the
remote, rather than from the dehumidifier itself. To do this, the remote sends a humidity
reading to the dehumidier each hour, which is then compared against the current setting,
to decide whether the dehumidier should be operating. To activate this mode press the up
and down arrows on the remote at the same time, the icon will ash to show the mode is
running
Please note: When FOLLOW ME is on, the head of remote control should be pointed towards
the dehumidier and should be usually no more than 3 meters away from it. (e.g. you have
a damp spot in the house and you want to monitor the humidity in that spot or next to a child
bed instead ). The follow me mode will fail if the remote is not positioned correctly towards
the dehumidier. Before activating follow me mode please ensure that you can operate the
unit via remote control from where the remote is placed. Low battery will also affect the follow
me mode.
How to connect the dehumidier to WIFI
Ensure that your dehumidier is in an area which receives good reception from your home
WiFi Router. Turn on the power to the dehumidier, so that the dehumidier is working then
press and hold the mode button on the dehumidifier, and release it after the
dehumidifier has beeped 3 times. The unit is now ready to connect to your Wifi network.
Please follow the smart App manual for further details on setting up and using the Smart
App.
15

POSITIONING THE DEHUMIDIFIER
A badly positioned dehumidier will have little effect. In positioning the dehumidier please
ensure circulation of the air in not restricted around
the unit. At least 20 cm space should be allowed
around the unit.
This dehumidier is designed for indoor residential
/ small ofce applications only and any commercial
or industrial use will invalidate the warranty.
Use the dehumidifier in an enclosed area for
maximum efficiency. Close all external doors
and windows to create an effective operating
environment. Do not use outdoors.
Your electriQ dehumidifier will begin to protect
your space from the harmful effects of excessive
moisture as soon as it is turned on. Excess moisture is dispersed throughout your home.
For this reason, the dehumidier should be positioned in a central and clear location so that
it can draw this moist air towards it from all over the home. A warm hallway or landing is an
ideal position for your dehumidier. If possible, leave interior doors ajar to allow air circulation
between rooms.
Alternatively, if you have a serious problem in one area you can begin by positioning the
dehumidier in that area and moving it to a more central location at a later date. Please note
the unit should not be placed directly against a radiator or other heat source. When positioning
your electriQ dehumidier, ensure that it is placed clear of any obstacle that may limit the air
movement, and it should be placed on a dry at surface.
Please Note: Do not force castors to move over carpet or uneven surfaces, nor move the unit
with water in the tank as it may tip over and spill.
WATER DRAINAGE

Do not remove the water tank immediately after the unit stops. Please wait a while to
avoid the water dripping into the unit and causing damage.
Only empty the water tank when it is full or before moving or storing the unit.
Do not rest the tank on the oor because the bottom of the tank could be uneven and
tank may fall and cause the water to spill.
When you remove the tank, do not touch sensors or any parts which are situated
behind tank. Doing so may damage the product. Be sure to push the tank gently all the
way into the unit. Banging the bucket against anything or failing to push it securely into
place may cause the unit not to operate.
Do not remove or damage the oat switch in the water-tank, otherwise the machine will
stop working.
Please make sure the water tank cover is put back into place correctly before the water
tank is reinserted.
If the water-tank is inserted incorrectly, the tank full indicator will flash. Remove the
water tank and reinsert to turn the indicator off and resume normal use.
At all times, avoid water entering the unit. It may cause an electrical hazard and
damage the unit.
NOTES:

This unit uses gravity fall to dispose water hence the drain should be lower than the
dehumidier water outlet. Be sure to run the water pipe downward and let the water ow out
smoothly. Do not kink or bend the pipe.
NOTE: When the continuous drain feature is not being used, reverse the pipe installation, to
start the water collecting in the water tank.
The permanent drain can be used in conjunction with a water pump (e.g. when draining from
a cellar) to lift the water upwards.
Always shut off the unit and unplug it from the mains before cleaning or performing any
maintenance. When it is not in use for long periods, it is advisable to remove the plug from the
power socket. Do not use chemical solvents (such as benzene, alcohol or gasoline) as they
may cause irreversible damage to the unit.
Filter Cleaning
The Air-inlet may gather dust easily, please clean it often with a soft, damp cloth. If the
lter is covered by dust, the airow and the performance of the unit will be affected, it may
even cause damage to the unit. We recommend that you regularly clean the filters. The
dehumidier must be disconnected from the socket before maintenance and the lters must
be allowed to fully dry before re use.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Remove the lters from the unit, and tap the dust away.
Clean the carbon (Optional) and the mesh lter with a vacuum cleaner or soft-brush.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why doesn’t the dehumidier seem to extract much water if the temperature is low?
This is a compressor dehumidifier which works best in temperatures above 15⁰C. If the
temperature is low and the air is dryer than the setting on the humidistat the unit will not
extract water. If you want to use a dehumidier for outside buildings, unheated properties,
boats or garages please check our desiccant range.
Why doesn’t the unit work /or stops suddenly?
The water tank may be full or displaced. To rectify: empty the tank and carefully place the
tank back in the unit. Also the unit may be running in dehumidifying mode with a low room
temperature. Please check if the room temperature is lower than 5⁰C. If so, the unit will stop
working while in dehumidifying mode (unit may be defrosting).
The ambient operating range is between 5⁰C and 35⁰C with a relative humidity ranging from
30% to 80%. For maximum efciency use the unit between 15⁰C and 32⁰C.
Sometimes cold and/or hot air comes out from the air outlet grill, why?
When the unit is in dehumidifying mode it absorbs humid air from room and freezes it to
reduce the humidity.
During the cold cycle there should be cold air coming out of the unit
During the hot cycle hot dry air should be coming out of the outlet grill.
