4. Instructions for Drying Clothes
The dehumidifier can be used for drying clothes in rainy weather.
Step 1.
Hang the washed clothes in a small space such as a cloakroom, bathroom, or
storage room.
Please keep the machine away from the water drips from the wet clothes.
Step 2.
Turn on the dehumidifier and set the humidity level at 30% RH. It is perfect if
you can let the machine air outlet blow the air to the wet clothes directly.
1. The drying effect will vary according to the clothes thickness, quantity and the
size of the drying space. Theoretically, the effect will be better if you hang few
thin clothes in a small space.
2. It will take 3-8 hours to dry the wet clothes in general. We suggest that you
should use continuous drainage when drying clothes.

If the malfunctions still exist, please don't hesitate to contact Kesnos
