Notice Before Use
the grounding plug can result in risk of re, electric shock and/or injury to persons associated with
the appliance. Check with a qualied service representative if in doubt that the appliance is properly
grounded.
Electrical Connections
Before plugging the appliance into the mains socket, check that:
• The mains power supply corresponds to the value indicated on the rating plate on the back of the
appliance.
• The power socket and electrical circuit are adequate for the appliance.
• The mains socket matches the plug. If this is not the case, have the plug replaced.
• The mains socket is adequately earthed. Failure to follow these important safety instructions
absolves the manufacturer of all liability.
Notions on Humidity
Air always contains a certain amount of water in the form of vapour. This determines the level of
humidity in an atmosphere. The capacity of the air to hold water vapour increases with temperature.
This is why in our homes, as soon as the temperature decreases, the vapour contained in the air
condenses, as is evident on the colder surfaces in the room, such as the windows, walls etc. The
purpose of a dehumidier is to remove the excess moisture from the air, avoiding the damage caused
by condensation.
Experts have established that the optimum environmental conditions for our well being and for the
home are obtained between 40% and 60% relative humidity. With very low temperatures, you are
recommended to heat the room even minimally. This considerably increases the dehumidifying power
of the appliance. With heating, the condensation formed by the water vapour on windows and other
cold surfaces evaporates into the air to be collected by the dehumidier. Air leaving the dehumidier is
usually about 1°C-2°C warmer than room temperature.
Notice Before Use
Choosing a location
A Dehumidier operating in a basement will have little effect in drying out an adjacent enclosed storage
area, such as a closet, unless there is adequate circulation of air in and out of the area.
• Do not use outdoors.
• The dehumidier is intended for indoor use only. Place the dehumidier on a smooth, level oor
surface that is strong enough to support the unit with a full tank of water.
• Allow at least 45cm of air ow space at all sides.
• Place the dehumidier in an area where the temperature will not fall below 5 °C.
• Do not use the dehumidier in cooking, laundry, bathing and dishwashing areas that have
excessive moisture. Place the dehumidier away from a cloth dryer.
• Use the dehumidier to prevent moisture damage anywhere books or valuables are stored.
• Use the dehumidier in a basement to help prevent moisture damage.
• The dehumidier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective.
• Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.

Operating Instructions
8. Defrost Indicator - When the defrost indicator light is on, that means the unit is running the de-
frost program. When the temperature of the room is too low, there will be frost on the evaporator
coils, and the unit will auto run the defrost program. At that time, the compressor is turned off,
and the fan continues to run, until the frost disappears. When the defrost program has nished,
the compressor will turn on again, and the defrost indicator will turn off. If the indicator is ashing,
that means the sensor has failed, please call Customer Service & Repair Centre.
9. Continuous drainage - Water can be automatically emptied by attaching a hose to the continuous
drainage port in the unit. This will allow the unit to run continuously (depending on the selected
humidity level) without having to empty the water tank. Place the unit on a level surface.
• Pull out the water tank.
• Push the drainage pipe on the port in the unit.
• Reinstall the water tank back into the unit, make sure the pipe is in the notch of the water
tank.

Cleaning & Maintenance
Note: Make sure power is off and the power cord is not plugged into an
electrical outlet prior to performing any maintenance on the unit.
Cleaning the lter
If the lter is dirty, air circulation is compromised and the efciency of the
dehumidifying decreases. It is therefore good practice to clean the lter at regular
intervals. The frequency depends on the duration and conditions of operation. If the unit is used con-
stantly or systematically, you are recommended to clean the lter once a week.
The lter is housed in the intake grille as below. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust accumulations
from the lter. If it is very dirty, immerse in warm water and rinse a number of times. The water should
never be hotter than 40°C. After washing, leave the lter to dry then attach the intake grille to the unit.
Cleaning the unit housing
1. Keep the unit from being exposed directly to the sun to prevent color fading and deterioration.
2. Clean the surface with a damp cloth and dry it with a soft towel.
Storing the unit for an extended period of time or transporting the unit
1. Clean or replace lter — refer to operating instructions.
2. Unplug the unit.
3. Empty any excess water.
4. The unit should be stored in a cool dry place when not used.
