• If the power cord on this unit is damaged it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• This appliance is not intended for use by children or other persons without assistance or supervision
if their physical, sensory or mental capabilities prevent them from using it safely. Children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste.
Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your local authority or retailer for recycling advice.
It draws in room air, cools it with a cooling unit,
and changes the humidity to drops of water.
The drops of water fall into a drainage tank.
The dehumidified air is re-heated by a heating
unit and discharged.
Steps ,,and are repeated to remove
humidity from the room.
After the air passes through the re-heating unit, its temperature will rise a little, so that the
temperature of the room will rise by 2 to 4oC. This is normal operation.
Cooling unit Re-heating unit
Moist air Dried air
Compressor Drainage tank
If you pour cold water into a cup, the air around the cup is cooled, and drops of water form on the
surface of the cup. The dehumidier takes advantage of this phenomenon to remove moisture.

Operation Instructions
1. Make sure the plug is firmly plugged into the wall socket.
2. Make sure the device water tank is placed in its correct position. (After
powering on the device for the first time, if the full tank light lights up, just
pull out the water tank then push it back to the proper position).
3. Turn the control knob to the suitable humidity setting (usually at
normal position). If the humidity level is over 60oC, then the device
will start removing moisture. If the humidity indoors is high, then
turn the control knob to ‘continuous’.
4. When the humidity in the room reaches below 60oC then the device will stop operating.
5. When the humidity in the room is over 60oC then the device will start removing moisture again.
6. The circulation between points 3., 4. and 5. is controlled by the set humidity.
WHEN FULL TANK LIGHT IS ON
When the water tank is full, the indication light will light up, the device will stop operating. Remove
the water in the tank, then place the water tank back in it’s proper position, the device will start
operating again.
DEFROST
When operating in low temperatures (less than 12oC) the surface of the evaporator will accumulate
frost and effect the efficiency of the dehumidifier. When this happens the device will go into periodic
defrost mode automatically. This is quite normal. Defrost light will come on. The device will operate
in temperatures down to 5oC in the area it is being used. Defrost times may vary. If the dehumidifier
freezes up turn the device off and let ice melt then turn the device back on. If the device freezes up
again it may be that the temperature is lower than 5oC, if it is, then you should not run the device until
the temperature rises. If the device continues to freeze up it may need looking at, return it to the place
of purchase to be sent back for service.
START OPERATION
Remove the water in the water tank
with two hands

CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE OPTION
THE PROPER WAY TO PLACE THE WATER DRAINAGE PVC HOSE
When using continuous drainage, the PVC hose must be placed below the drainage hole. Avoid
uneven ground and kinking drainage hose.
Continuous Drainage
1. Put in the PVC hose into the back of the closed hole, then connect the PVC hose to the front.
• Prepare PVC hose to drain out water.
• Take out the stopple of the drainage outlet.
• Take out the soft cover, put it and tube stopple into the bucket for storage.
• Connect the PVC hose with the drainage outlet.
• Place the bucket in its original location.
2. Place water tank back in its original position.

3. Do not use the dehumidifier in the immediate surroundings of a bath, shower, or swimming pool.
4. Do not place the device close to a heater, or any appliance which will have a high temperature.
5. Do not place any objects into the air inlet or outlet.
6. Do not sit or stand on the unit.
7. Discard water that has collected in the tank regularly.
8. Do not place the dehumidifier in an enclosed area, ie. closets, which will prevent air circulation.
9. Do not use the dehumidifier for any purpose other than for which it was originally intended.
10. Install the external drain piping on a downhill gradient to ensure that condensed water can be
drained continuously.
11. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a
similarly qualified person in order to avoid hazard.

Wipe the shell with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not immerse in any
liquid. Dry with a dry cloth. Do not use harsh abrasives or solvents.
2. Air filter cleaning:
For best results, clean your air filter regularly, as it will become
clogged with dust over time.
• Pull out the filter gently.
• To clean the air filter, run a vacuum cleaner
lightly over the surface of the air filter to
remove dirt. If the air filter is very dirty,
wash it with warm water and a neutral
cleaning solvent and dry it thoroughly.
3. Insert to its original position.
