Inspect filter. Look for accumulated dust and dirt that would restrict airflow
through the filter into the unit. If any is visible, vacuum out the debris. Do
not wash the filter, as it will reduce the effectiveness of the electrostatic
material.
Important: Replace the filter whenever
It has been vacuumed clean 3 times.
It has been used on a mold remediation job.
Periodically Inspection (as needed)
Make sure the unit is unplugged. Remove housing, in order to locate the coil,
pump and drain hose.
Check coil and clean visible dirty
Vacuum both sides of the coils until clean.
Check pump
Inspect and clean the pump system regularly to maintain effective
operation. Remove one screw to open up the top cover, and then
open up the second cover. Clean the float shaft to make sure the
floating switch can operate smoothly.
Check drain hose
Look for obstructions. Disconnect and clear any debris present.
Warranty
Shazaam warrants to the original purchaser that if, within a period of 12
months from the date of purchase, this equipment is found to be defective
either in original materials or workmanship, other than that of fair wear and tear,
the faulty part will be replaced free of charge upon presentation of the
appropriate evidence, providing the unit is returned to the original supplier.
Shipping expenses are not covered under the warranty.
Shazaam Dehumidifiers are used by professionals for the drying out of wet
materials such as carpets, carpet cushions, floors, walls, building contents and
more. They reduce the water in enclosed structural environments like buildings
or parts of a building by removing water vapor from the air.
Safety Instructions
Do not allow children to play with or around the operating unit.
Keep wiring and motor dry. Never operate the unit in standing water, rain
and snow, as this may create a risk of injury from electric shock.
Do not use residential three way multiple plug adapter.
Do not operate the unit with a damaged power cable.
Always operate the unit with a grounded plug and with a grounded
supply.
Extension cables must be grounded and be able to deliver the
appropriate voltage to the unit.
Do not drop or throw the unit.
Always operate the unit on a stable, level surface.
Do not clog or block air intakes.
Always to keep the filter clean.
Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the unit if you are not qualified to
do so.

Setting Up a Drying Area
Managing the electrical consumption
The dehumidifier should be plugged in to grounded electrical outlet. In large
disaster environments, you will find the use of optional 230v to 115 volt
converters helpful. This allows you to use the electricity from the electric stove
or oven which in turn will leave the electricity from the wall available for your air
movers. These converters will minimize tripping of electrical breakers when
lots of air movers and dehumidifiers are present.
Create a closed drying chamber
The dehumidifier should be operated in an enclosed space, as this creates a
drying chamber. Close all doors, windows or areas that open to the outside to
maximize the unit’s water removal efficiency. Inside the drying chamber, air
should circulate freely. Open interior doors and turn on Air Movers to increase
the circulation.
Position the dehumidifier
Place the dehumidifiers in the center of a room and keep it away from anything
that could prevent airflow into and out of the unit.
Managing the rising temperature
The dehumidifier warms the air as it removes its moisture. Room temperatures
of about 68oF to 84oF are usually in good condition for drying. In summer
months while drying flooded homes, set the A/C to 68oF with theA/C blower on
constant (ON). This will circulate the air in the entire home to make sure the dry
air is distributed evenly. In the winter, please set the heater to at least 65oF
with the blower set to the “ON” position. When storing or transporting the unit in
temperatures below 60oF, place the dehumidifier in the room for about an hour
(when possible) before turning it on. This will allow the unit to acclimate to the
warmer temperature and minimize the coils from freezing up and having to go
through it’s defrost cycle.
CAUTION! Never operate the DriStorm dehumidifier at temperatures above
100oF. It could damage the machine and building contents.

Note:.
When Er01 or Er02 error message comes up, the dehumidification will stop
automatically. The machine will be back to STANDBY MODE and it won’t be
automatically turn off unless you do so. Contact your local distributor for service.

Maintenance
WARNING! Always unplug any dehumidifier before performing maintenance
procedures.

Before Each Use
Inspect the electrical cord for damage.
Inspect pump tube. Make sure the pump tube is completely unwrapped
and not kinked. Failure to do so can cause water to back up in the pump
and leak out. The control panel may signal this problem by displaying
“ER01
Touch Pad Keys (Cont.):
PURGE. Press the PURGE key to empty water from the pump reservoir.
During the normal operation, the pump purges automatically whenever
the reservoir is full. The display will read PURGE ON icon.
TO PURGE THE PUMP MANUALLY BEFORE TRANSPORTATION:
Stop the dehumidification using the START/STOP key, and let the
unit sit for about 10mins. This allows water to drip from the coils.
Press PURGE to remove residual water.
DISPLAY. Press the DISPLAY key to display “TIMER” CLOCK,
“TOTAL” CLOCK and “JOB” CLOCK while the machine has been turned
on. Press the DISPLAY key once can only display ONE kind of clock
time.
In STANDBY MODE, the default display is “TIMER” CLOCK time.
By press the DISPLAY key once to display the “TOTAL” CLOCK
time. Press it again to display “JOB” CLOCK time, which shows the
LAST JOB run time.
While the dehumidification stops as the “TIMER”set, the default
CLOCK display is “TIMER” CLOCK time, which shows remaining
running time of the CURRENT JOB. Press the DISPLAY key once
to display the “TOTAL” CLOCK time. Press it again to display “JOB”
CLOCK time, which counts the CURRENT JOB run time.
While the dehumidification runs continuously without “TIMER”
setting, the default CLOCK display is “JOB” CLOCK, which shows
the CURRENT JOB running time. Press the DISPLAY key once to
display “TIMER” CLOCK time, which reads “00:00”. Press it again
to display the “TOTAL” CLOCK time.
If the DISPLAY key has not been pressed within 15 seconds, the
CLOCK time will back to its default display.
When error messages are on, “TIMER”, “TOTAL”and “JOB”
CLOCK displays disappear. Press DISPLAY key once to get the
clock displays back.
Operating Your Dehumidifier
Place the dehumidifiers in upright position
If the dehumidifier has been laid down in a horizontal position for any time over
a few minutes, you must set it upright (vertical) for 30 minutes before starting.
Connect the drainage system
You can find the hose wrapped around the back of the machine. Unwrap the
entire hose and run it into a sink, toilet, drain, or bucket. Remove any kinks in
the hose. Use bleach in the condensate pump once a year to keep clean.
Plug in the electrical cord
Locate the electrical cord and unwrap around the air outlet located on the back
of the unit. Plug it into a standard outlet with the correct voltage and amperage
for the unit. If you use the optional 230v to 115 volt converters that allow you
to plug in multiple units at the same time into your customers electric clothes
dryer, stove or oven, always check the voltage with our optional volt meters.
Before Transporting Your Dehumidifier
Before moving the unit, make sure the pump is empty of water. To do this, let
the unit stop dehumidification for 10mins. Push PURGE key to clear waters.
