ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
1). It is recommended that a dedicated electrical outlet be used for the dehumidifier. The product is equipped with a 3-wire cord having a 3-prong grounding plug. It
must be plugged into a wall receptacle that is properly installed and grounded.
2). This unit must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current.
The cord provided with this unit is equipped with a grounding wire and a grounding plug.
3). The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
4). Avoid the use of three prong adapters or cutting off the third grounding prong in order to accommodate a two prong outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it
provides no effective grounding for the product and may result in shock hazard.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if:
1) The grounding instructions are not completely understood.
2) You are unsure that the unit is properly grounded.
3) You have any questions about the grounding or electrical instructions.
1. Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions.
2. If it is absolutely necessary to use longer cord sets or an extension cord, extreme care must be exercised.
a) Use only a grounding type 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle .
b) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord must equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the unit. The longer cord should be arranged so
that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
NOTE: Neither Royal Soverign nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to the product or personal iniury resulting from failure to observe the electrical connection procedures.

The patented heavy-duty pump system allows water removal of up to 16 Ft (4.9m) in height. If you want the water to flow directly to a drain, connect the condensation
discharge tube supplied to the connection pipe located on the lower front part of the unit. Select the dehumidifying function and press the PUMP button.
Note: With the condensation discharge hose missing and the pump switched ON, the PUMP symbol on the display will be blinking. The unit is not working. To correct
this problem:
• Check the hose is correctly positioned;
• Disconnect and reconnect the plug.
CONTINUOUS DRAINING USING AUTO PUMP
In the event frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor will cycle off and the fan will continue to run until the frost disappears. When the coils
are completely defrosted, the compressor will automatically restart .
