Operating instructions
Intended use
This device is designed specifically for drying laundry. The room-dehumidifying function
can also be used to keep rooms dry.
Description of system
The SECOMAT produces dry air that it blows onto the laundry by means of a ventilator.
The items of laundry release humidity into the ambient air. The damp air is absorbed by the
device and passes over the cooled surface of the cooling unit, where the steam condenses.
The condensed air is then taken to a container or siphon outlet via the collecting tray. The
dry air is warmed back up to the original room temperature in the warm part of the cooling
unit before being blown out via the ventilator.
Transport
Always transport the device upright. This prevents damage to the compressor and damage
in transit.
Storage
If you do not intend to use the device for a long time, you must clean the water bucket and
housing before taking into storage. It is then best to pack the device in its original box.
Installation
1. Mount the fixing rail supplied to the wall 55 centimetres below the drying rack.
2. Hang the device from this rail and secure it against accidental removal with screws to
the left and right.
3. Make sure the device is correctly aligned vertically and horizontally. Use a spirit level to check.
4. Keep a safety clearance of 8 centimetres from any flammable materials. The mains plug
must still be easily accessible after mounting.
Room temperature of normal version: min. +10°C, max. +30°C
Room temperature of version with additional heating: min. +5°C, max. +30°C
If water is collected in the bucket, it must be emptied regularly. Depending on the temperature
and humidity of the air, the bucket may fill once or twice a day. Water damage will occur if
the bucket is not emptied.
Attaching the hose
1. Fit the connecting piece (straight or angled) to the thread on the bottom of the device.
2. Pull the hose over the connecting piece.
3. Insert the end of the hose into the outlet pipe (preferably siphoned).
Where possible, lead the water away directly.


To achieve optimum drying results, please mount the washing line as follows:
Wrong
The washing is hanging across the dryer, obstructing the air flow and making the washing
hanging behind dry much more slowly.
Good
The air can circulate and reach even the items at the back.
Optimal
The radial line system developed by Krüger is perfect for the condensation drying method
and achieves the shortest drying times.
Make sure there is at least 0.5 metre between the outlet opening and the nearest piece of
washing.

Starting up
1. Close windows and doors
2. Check that the cleaned filter is inserted correctly
3. 1Press standby
4. P1 P2 P3 Select programme selector key for dryness level
Choosing the appropriate drying programme
The programme can be selected to suit your needs.
P1 low washing drying level
Short drying time, the laundry retains residual humidity and is therefore easy to iron.
P2 medium washing drying level
Medium drying time, the laundry is dry but may still retain some residual humidity.
P3 high washing drying level
Longer drying time, the laundry is bone dry and can be folded immediately.
The air humidity in the drying room depends on the season. During the dry winter months,
the device may turn o too soon. In this case, please switch to a higher level (P2 or P3).
During the damp summer months, the device may stay on for longer than necessary. In this
case, please select a lower drying level (P2 or P1).
The laundry dryer operates fully automatically. In other words, it dehumidifies for as long
as the humidity in the room is above the set level of dryness. As soon as the desired level
of humidity has been reached, dehumidification is interrupted. If the room humidity rises
again, the device automatically switches back on. This process is repeated as often as

necessary until the desired level of dryness has been reached. The device then switches
o permanently. If you want to turn the device on again, you have to restart it by hand.
Dehumidifying
P4 The room dehumidifying function can be switched on and o independently of the
laundry drying function using the room dehumidifying button. When the function is activat-
ed, the blue LED display flashes. If the room dehumidifier function is active and the laundry
dryingfunctionisswitchedon,thenthiscontrolsthedehumidifierfunction.Oncethelaundry
drying programme is complete, the unit automatically reverts to the dehumidifier function.
This function remains active until it is switched o manually.
Manual mode
The manual mode can be used to dry one or a few items of washing. If you press and hold
down one of the three function keys stated below for 5 seconds, automatic mode is activated
for a defined time:
P1 Manual mode for 30 minutes
P2 Manual mode for 60 minutes
P3 Manual mode for 90 minutes
When manual mode is activated, the LED on the relevant function key flashes. Once the defined
time has passed, the device switches o and manual mode is automatically deactivated.
Optional additional heating
In very cold drying rooms, the additional heating function can be used to enhance the drying
function (see technical data on page 68). When you purchase the H model, this additional
heating function has already been installed by the factory. It can be retrofitted to the normal
version for an extra charge.
If room temperature is less than +14°C, the additional heating switches on automatically
and helps to heat up the dry air. If room temperature reaches +16°C, the heating element
switches o automatically. The heating capacity is adjusted according to the volume of air.


Cleaning
Cleaning the device:
1. Wipe the housing with a damp cloth.
2. Pull the air filter up and out of the device (hold on the left and right side).
3. Dust the air filter with a brush and insert again.
Internal cleaning is needed if the device is very dirty. This maintenance work must be
undertakenbyarefrigerationspecialist. Failuretoundertakethemaintenancework required
may result in a device defect. Defects caused by failure to undertake maintenance work are
excluded from warranty claims – especially if the filter has not been cleaned, resulting in the
device overheating. To ensure a long service life and trouble-free operation, we recommend
taking out a maintenance contract.
Disposal
The dehumidifier is filled with a refrigerant. It therefore requires special disposal. Please
contact your dealer or the local waste disposal facility.


Before contacting the fault service team, please consult the following questions:
If the device is not running
Is the mains plug correctly plugged in?
Is the electric box’s fuse OK?
Is the mains cable OK?
If the device is running constantly
Are the doors and windows closed?
Can humidity be originating from other sources?
Has the correct drying programme been selected (see page 64: Choosing the
appropriate drying programme)
If the device is providing unsatisfactory dehumidification
Is the air circulating in the room?
Are the intake and exhaust openings unobstructed?
Is the room temperature too high or too low (see page 62)?
Is the filter clean?
Is there at least 0.5 metre between the outlet opening and the first piece of washing?
Are only a few or single items of washing hanging up? (see page 65: Manual mode)
Blinken der roten LED
If the red fault lamp is flashing, the device is interlocked. Each fault has its own flash code.
In other words, depending on the type of error, the lamp will flash at a dierent frequency.
Establish the fault code and take a note of it before pressing the reset button (see page 59,
no. 6) behind the filter. If the interlock cannot be reset despite several attempts, please
contact the fault service team. Tell them the error code as well as the article no. and serial
no. that can be found on the identification plate on the front left-hand side of the device.
This will help to considerably improve troubleshooting.
