When unit is OFF and the tank of the dehumidier is full, the full indicator will be lit
and the display will read P2. Additionally, when the unit is on and the tank is full, the
compressor stops operation followed by the fan a few minutes later. The full indicator
will ash and the display will show P2.
• Slowly remove the bucket. Grip the handle with caution and carefully pull outwards so
the water does not overow. Do not place the tank on the oor because the bottom of
the tank is uneven. Doing so the tank will fall and the water will be spilled on the oor.
• Empty the water from the tank and place it again in to the device. The water tank, must
be securely and properly placed, for the dehumidier to operate.
• When the water tank is re-installed the unit will automatically restart.
• When you remove the tank, do not touch any parts inside the unit, as you may damage
the device.
• Be sure to gently place the tank into the dehumidier.
• Do not drink or use the collected water from the device.
• Wipe any excess water on or in the unit when removing the tank.

For about the rst month of use, the dehumidier operates
intensively. This will gradually decrease within time, since
the dehumidier will have been calibrated in its working
environment. Condensed households may sometime be
signicantly expensive to heat. The use of a dehumidier
may lower energy costs.

Maintaining a proper home humidity level is essential
for your well-being and that of your household. Extreme
uctuations cause adverse eects on both; low humidity
may cause respiratory problems and damage on wooden
doors, windows, and furniture, and make you vulnerable
to electric shocks due to increased static electricity. On
the other hand, high humidity may promote mold growth,
serving as breeding grounds for various bacteria and
resulting in poor health and also a damaged home. The ideal
humidity levels uctuate between 45% to 55%.

When the desired humidity level is reached, there is a
possibility of partial humidity formation on windows. This
occurs due to the temperature variation between the
window and the external weather conditions. • Operating
the dehumidier should signicantly reduce condensation
formation on windows.

The dehumidier operates by intaking condensed air
removing any moisture and sending it back in the area it
operates. If you are standing near the dehumidier while
operating you may feel that the air coming out of the fan is
cooler due to the diusion. In reality, it is at the same room-
temperature but with less humidity.
