place the unit in a room that is between
41°F (5°C) and 95°F (35°C).
Automatic features
AUTO SHUT OFF: The unit will
automatically shut off when
either the reservoir is full or
the set humidity is reached.
Wait 3 minutes before
resuming operation.
AUTO DEFROST: When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the
compressor will cycle off and the fan will continue to run until the unit
has defrosted.
AUTO RESTART: If the power is cut unexpectedly, the unit will restart
with the previous settings when power resumes.
Manual features
COMFORT MODE: This mode will set the unit to automatically control
humidity between 45%-55% based on the temperature of the room. Note
that the humidity cannot be manually set while in this mode.
FILTER: When it is time to clean the filter, the clean filter light will turn on.
To reset the light after cleaning the filter, press the filter light reset button.
CONTINUOUS MODE: To set the dehumidifier to run constantly without a timer,
press the continuous mode button. The continuous mode light will turn on.
HUMIDITY CONTROL: Relative humidity can be adjusted in 5% increments. For
dryer air, press the minus button. For damper air, press the plus button. Note
that relative humidity can be set within a range of 35% to 85%.
TIMER: The timer can be set to indicate either when the dehumidifier will start
or when it will stop. To set a time, press the timer button until the desired timer
light turns on. Use the increase and decrease buttons to adjust the time in .5
hour increments up to 10 hours.

outlet of the unit and set aside.
b. Remove the water reservoir and insert
the hose through the drain outlet of the
unit, pressing it securely into the connector
on the front of the unit.
