This product is using the Environment
friendly refrigerant R290. R290 has no
damaging influence on the ozone layer
(ODP), a negligible greenhouse effect
(GWP) and is available worldwide. This
refrigerant is tasteless and combustible,
moreover, it can burn and explode under
certain condition. Special precautions must
be taken into consideration before using
and maintenance of this appliance due to
the coolant's high flammability: so please
read this user manual carefully before using
and maintenance.
SYMBOLS FROM THE UNIT AND USER MANUAL
This unit uses a flammable refrigerant gas.
If refrigerant gas leaks and comes in contact
to fire or heating part, it will be created harmful
gas and there is risk of fire.
Read the USER MANUAL carefully before op-
eration and maintenance.
Further information is available in the USER
MANUAL and the SERVICE MANUAL.
Service personnel are required to carefully
read the USER and SERVICE MANUAL before
operation and maintenance.
Additional warning for appliance with R290 refrigerant gas
(refer to the rating plate for the type of refrigerant gas used).
R290 refrigerant gas complies with European environmental
directives.

• To avoid any damage, place the unit in an upright position for
at least 24 hours before initiation.
• Make sure that the air outlet and air inlet are never blocked.
• Only operate the unit on a horizontal surface to ensure no wa-
ter leaks out.
• After removing the packaging, make sure that the appliance is
in good condition.
• Do not allow children to play with the packaging materials as
there is risk of suffocation.

BLUE color shows Ambient humidity <50%
GREEN color shows Ambient humidity between 50% and 70%
RED color shows Ambient humidity >70%
POWER:
Press the POWER button to turn the unit on or off.
HUMIDITY DIGITAL SLIDE SETTING:
Slide the humidity digital slide setting to set the desired dehumidification de-
gree (30%-80%). Pressing the negative mark humidity shows 30% and then
by sliding you can be set in 5% increments from 30, 35, 40, 45,…, 80.(positive

CAUTIONS
1. Do not remove the float in the water tank, otherwise, the machine cannot
start work or power on.
2. If the water tank is dirty, clean by cool water or warm water, cannot use
cleaner, steel wool, chemical rag duster, gas oil, benzene, thinner or other
solvent to clean it, otherwise, it would damage the water tank and lead to
leakage.
3. When you place the water tank back into place, please use two hands to
push the water tank into the machine and force to the right position. If you
do not place the water tank in the right position, the machine would not
power on or start.
Continuous Drainage
This dehumidifier has a continuous drainage hole which used to be connected
by a plastic tube, then the dehumidification water can be continuous drainage.
• Turn off the unit and unplug, take out the water tank and then insert the pipe
• Use a water hose to connect the water outlet.
• For continuous drainage, the end of the hose should not be submerged in
water to prevent it from being blocked or damaged.
