Indicator Light Function:
Arrow Symbols (Operation - Blue Light): This light
illuminates and remains illuminated as long as the unit is
operational.
Bucket Symbol (Water Full - Red Light): This light
illuminates under the following conditions;
1.When the internal water tank is not properly installed
inside the cabinet.
2.When the internal water tank is full.Water tank must be
emptied and replaced back in the cabinet before normal
operating conditions can resume.
Water Tank Operation:
Proper installation of the water tank is crucial in
maintaining reliable dehumidifier operation.
The water tank holds accumulated condensed water
routed from the evaporator (cooling) coil during
dehumidifier operation.The water level inside the tank is
controlled by a float switch mechanism that automatically
stops dehumidifier operation when the water level
reaches a pre-determined level.
When the water tank is full and /or incorrectly positioned
inside the cabinet, the (water full) red light flashes and a
signal (beep) sounds for 10 seconds.This condition
results in the immediate shut down of the dehumidifying
system. (compressor cycle terminated, however the fan
motor will continue to operate) The water tank must be
emptied and/or correctly re-positioned before
dehumidifier operation can resume NOTE: It may take
several minutes before operating conditions resume.
This is normal.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper with or attempt to defeat the
float switch mechanism. (as this will result in flooding)
Factory Default Setting:
When the unit is first connected to a power supply, the
electronic circuit board will automatically default to the
following factory settings;
Mode: Dehumidification

Location:
Select a suitable location, making sure you have easy
access to an electrical outlet. (avoid the use of
extension cords) If it is absolutely necessary to use an
extension cord, use an approved "air conditioner”
heavy duty extension cord only. (available at most local
hardware stores)
Select a suitable location making sure there are no
obstructions restricting airflow through the front air
intake grill. Maintain a minimum clearance of a least
20cm (8”) between adjacent walls and the back of the
unit to allow for proper air circulation and maximum
efficiency.
To obtain maximum operating efficiency from your
dehumidifier, the recommended (room ambient)
operating temperatures should be between 6ºC /
42.8ºF ~ 35ºC / 95ºF.
It is important to remember the efficiency of a
dehumidifier will be effected /influenced by the rate at
which new humid air (moisture) is allowed to infiltrate
the same space/area.To maintain efficiency, the
dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area.
Keep all doors and windows closed.
INSTALLATION

Operating Instructions:
Dehumidifying is a means of removing moisture from the
air.that will help to protect your home and valued
possessions from damage (swelling) caused by moisture
in the air. It also prevents mold and mildew from
accumulating in damp areas of the home. Essentially a
dehumidifier removes moisture from the air, as moist air
passes over a dehumidifying (evaporator cooling) coil.
Moisture is condensed on the evaporator coil, drained
and collected inside an internal (removable) water tank
located at the front of the unit.The exhausted air being
returned into the room environment is elevated several
degrees causing the surrounding air temperature to
increase (slightly).This process contributes to lowering
the relative humidity of the surrounding air.
Factory Default Setting:
When the unit is first connected to a power supply, the
electronic circuit board will automatically default to the
following factory settings.
Mode: Dehumidifier
Humidity Set Air Value:60% RH
Fan Speed: = Low
NOTE:In the event of a power failure or the unit is
switched ‘Off’, the most recent settings are retained and
restored once the power is switched “On”/resumed.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Depending on humidity conditions,
(when power is restored or switched ‘On’) the
dehumidifier may not start automatically under the factory
or custom (
see page 7 ) default setting .This is an
indication the RH% level of the surrounding environment
is lower than the current default setting and it may be
necessary to select a lower SET AIR (RH%) value.
DEHUMIDIFYING MODE SELECTION:
1. The unit does not have to be switched on
(operational) to select/set a program. All programs can be
selected with the unit in the “off” position
2. Press the MODE button and select dehumidifier mode
(a rain drop symbol will appear in the display). Each time
the button is pressed, the setting will alternate between
DRY (dehumidifier) mode and FAN (only) mode.
3. Press the “UP” or “DOWN” buttons to select the desired
SET AIR operating value. (between 35% ~ 80%) To
select CONTINUOUS dehumidifying mode, press the
DOWN button until the symbol “- -” appear in the SET
AIR display. NOTE: During CONTINUOUS mode
operation, the humidistat (control) will be by-passed and
the compressor will operate non-stop regardless of
humidity conditions.
FAN SPEED SELECTION:
4. Press the fan symbol on the keypad. Each time the
button is pressed, the mode selection will alternate
between "High Fan" and "Low Fan" speed options.The

AIR FILTER:
Your dehumidifier features a removable Air Filter.This
filter is located at the front of the unit (behind the front air
intake grill) The air filter plays an important role in helping
to reduce (minimize) dust/dirt particles from the
surrounding environment. A blocked/clogged air filter
reduces air flow impacting negatively on operating
efficiency.To maintain maximum operating efficiency;The
filter must
be checked and cleaned regularly. (every 2 weeks) More
frequent cleaning may be required depending upon
indoor air quality.
IMPORTANT: Never operate the unit without the air
filter in place.
AIR FILTER REMOVAL:
1. Locate the air filter (handle) tab on the upper right side
of the front air intake grill and slide-out the filter to
the right.
2. Clean the filter thoroughly using a vacuum cleaner or
wash using luke warm water and mild detergent.

AVERTISSEMENT – AVIS IMPORTANTS
POUR LA SÉCURITÉ DES UTILISATEURS – Pour minimiser tout risque d’incendie ou d’explosion, ne
jamais remiser d’essence ou autres produits liquides ou gazeux inflammables à proximité de cet appareil
ou de tout autre appareil ménager.
CIRCUIT ÉLECTRIQUE – Pour réduire le risque d’incendie, de choc électrique ou de dommages corporels,
on doit s’assurer que tout câblage électrique et circuit de mise à la terre soient conformes aux codes
national et local de l’électricité. C’est à l’acquéreur qu’incombe la responsabilité de consulter
éventuellement un électricien qualifié qui pourra inspecter le câblage et les fusibles de la résidence et
déterminer si la source d’électricité disponible est adéquate pour l’alimentation de l’appareil. Cet appareil
est conçu pour être alimenté par un circuit 120 volts CA, 60 Hz (circuit indépendant à 3 conducteurs,
alimentant une prise de courant convenablement polarisée et mise à la terre) protégé par un fusible de 15
ampères (ou disjoncteur ou fusible temporisé équivalent).
La fiche de branchement à trois broches du cordon d’alimentation doit être branchée directement sur une
prise de courant polarisée de même configuration et mise à la terre, conçue pour les circuits 110/120 V CA.
INSTRUCTIONS DE MISE À LATERRE – La mise à la terre incorrecte de cet appareil peut susciter un
risque de choc électrique. En cas de doute quant à la qualité de la mise à la terre de la prise de courant
disponible, consulter un électricien qualifié.
Cet appareil doit être mis à la terre. Advenant une anomalie de fonctionnement ou une panne, la mise à la
terre réduira le risque de choc électrique, grâce à une voie de moindre résistance disponible pour le
passage du courant électrique. Cet appareil est équipé d’un cordon d’alimentation comportant un
conducteur de mise à la terre et une fiche de branchement à trois broches (pour mise à la terre). La fiche
de branchement doit être branchée sur une prise de courant convenablement installée et mise à la terre
conformément aux prescriptions des codes et règlements locaux en vigueur.
Ne jamais modifier la fiche de branchement de l’appareil. Si la configuration de la fiche de branchement ne
permet pas son branchement sur la prise de courant, il sera nécessaire de faire installer une prise de
courant adéquate par un électricien qualifié.
Si les caractéristiques de la source d’alimentation électrique de la résidence ne correspondent pas aux
spécifications ci-dessus, ou en cas d’incertitude quant à la qualité de la mise à la terre, demander à un
électricien qualifié ou à la compagnie de distribution d’électricité d’inspecter l’installation électrique et
d’effectuer tout travail correctif nécessaire.
