Setting the operating mode
The following operating modes are available:
• cooling: The room air is circulated by the device and cooled
at the same time.
• ventilation: The room air is circulated by the device.
The device will start up in cooling mode approx. 3.5 min after
switch-on.
• You can select ventilation mode (without cooling) by means
of the VENT. button (30).
– The VENT. indication (20) will be illuminated when
ventilation mode is activated.
Automatic defrost
At low ambient temperatures, ice may form at the evaporator
during dehumidification.
The device then carries out an automatic defrost by means of the
hot gas feed. Here, a hot cooling agent is led into the iced
evaporator for its surfaces to defrost.
The duration of the defrost process can vary. The hot gas
automatic defrost system integrated in the device automatically
switches on the defrost cycle at regular intervals.
Do not switch the device off during automatic defrost. Do not
remove the mains plug from the mains socket.
After automatic defrosting the device keeps running for approx.
90 s for the purpose of air circulation – regardless of the ambient
temperature and the desired room temperature. Afterwards the
device resumes operation with the set values.
Shutdown
1. Use the ON/OFF button (29) to switch the device off.
2. Remove the mains plug from the mains socket.
3. Disconnect all connections between basic device and
external heat exchanger.

the error message HIPS.
The device works with reduced or no cooling capacity:
• Check whether cooling mode is selected.
• Check the connection lines leading to the external heat
exchanger for proper fit.
• Check the air filter for dirt. If required, clean the air filter (see
