HOW A DEHUMIDIFIER WORKS
When the dehumidifier is switched ON, a fan pulls moisture-laden air into the dehumidifier where it
passes through dehumidifying coils inside the unit. These coils condense moisture from the air
and collect it in the water tank. The dry air is then exhausted from the dehumidifier. The air flows
through the air vents of the dehumidifier into the room as dry, warm air.
IMPORTANT: The dehumidifier is designed to operate between 41°F (5°C) and 89°F (32°C).
The dehumidifier’s performance may be greatly reduced if room temperature is beyond this
temperature range.
EN
Before using the dehumidifier, place the unit UPRIGHT for at least 4 hours before use to allow the
refrigerant to stabilize in case it was transported on its side or upside-down.
For optimal efficiency, the dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area. Keep all doors,
windows and other outside entrances to the room closed.
•
•
SELECTING A LOCATION - IMPORTANT

5
Place the dehumidifier in an area where the temperature will not drop below 41°F (5°C)
Place the dehumidifier at least 17.7 inches (45 cm) away from other objects (e.g. curtains or
furniture) that may restrict airflow from the back or through the air vents of the unit.
The dehumidifier must be positioned on a level floor.
•
•
•
SELECTING A LOCATION - IMPORTANT (CONTINUED)
17.7 inches (45 cm) 17.7 inches (45 cm)
IMPORTANT: The effectiveness of the dehumidifier can be influenced by different factors. One
factor is the rate at which new, moisture-laden air enters the room and the amount of air circulating
in and out of the area to be dehumidified. For example, if a door to a basement is constantly
opened, letting new, moisture-laden air into the room, dehumidification will take longer than
if the door was kept closed. If the dehumidifier is in a room with a storage closet or cabinets, it
will have little or no effect in drying the inside of the storage closet or cabinets unless there
is adequate circulation of air in and out of these spaces. To dehumidify these spaces, open the
storage door or cabinet doors to allow air circulation. You may find that installing a second
dehumidifier may be required for larger enclosed areas.
EN

6EN
UNPACKAGING THE DEHUMIDIFIER
There is a Foam Float inside the water tank that senses the water
level to automatically stop dehumidification when the water
tank is full. Make sure the Foam Float is positioned correctly
inside the water tank by ensuring it lies level with the top edge
of the water tank.
DO NOT REMOVE THIS FOAM FLOAT.
This Dehumidifier is packaged with a colored or transparent tape to secure some parts during
transportation. Remove the colored or transparent packaging tape from the unit.
1. Gently pull the water tank from out of the dehumidifier
2. Remove the splash guard from the top part of the
water tank
3. Take out the power plug, drain hose and other accessories,
which is placed inside the tank of the dehumidifier.
4. Once all accessories have been removed, replace
the splash guard onto the top part of the water tank.
Make sure that the tank is properly positioned.

HUMIDITY CONTROL SETTING
When the unit is switched ON, the Display Screen shows the current humidity percentage.
Press or to select your preferred humidity level. The humidity is adjusted in increments of 5%
by pressing or . The adjustable Relative Humidity (RH) range is between 30% RH to
90% RH. Ten seconds after setting the preferred humidity setting, the display will revert back
to displaying the current humidity.
IMPORTANT: There is a 5% threshold when the desired humidity setting has been reached. The
compressor will shut off once the relative humidity is 5% lower than your desired setting. The fan will
continue to run for up to 3 minutes to cool the motor and will then shut off. Operation restores once
the relative humidity is 5% higher than your desired setting.
Recommended Settings: It is recommended to leave the unit running at 30% humidity at
High Fan Speed during the first 2 to 3 days until damp odors are removed. After a few days when
the Relative Humidity has been reduced to a more comfortable level, press or to choose a
higher RH% that maintains a comfortable humidity level thereafter. A recommended healthy
humidity level is between 40% and 50%.
NOTE: The humidity sensor senses current humidity in the surrounding area. It is normal for about
a 5% variance above or below the actual relative humidity in the room. Therefore, if there is a slight
variance, the unit may sometimes operate slightly longer or shorter than the set RH% level.

The following troubleshooting guide addresses the most common problems. If problems persist, call
customer service.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Dehumidifier
does not start
No electricity. Check for power.
The power cord is not
properly plugged in. Remove and reconnect the power cord.
The water tank is not in
the correct position. Position the water tank correctly into the unit. Unit will not operate until the water tank is secure in place.
Unit runs but
the humidity
level does
not decrease
The humidity level setting
is too high. Decrease the humidity level setting.
A door or window is open,
letting in new moisture. Make sure all windows or doors to the outside are closed and tightly sealed.
There are other sources
of humidity in the room
(e.g. boiling water in pot).
Switch on the dehumidifier when these
sources are not present.
The temperature in the
room is too low.
The dehumidifier is designed to operate between
41°F (5°C) and 89°F (32°C). Moisture removal is
greatly reduced if room temperatures exceed this
temperature range.
