Use and Care Manual
DEHUMIDIFIER USE
IMPORTANT: If the dehumidier has been tilted on its
side, wait 24 hours before turning on the dehumidier to
allow the oil to return to the compressor. This will
prevent the dehumidier from failing prematurely.
•
Allow 20" (51 cm) of space around the unit for proper air
circulation.
•
Do Not operate the dehumidier without an air lter in
place.
•
Do not spill liquid on the control panel; it may cause an
electrical short to the interior electronic parts that would
either disable them or cause them to function
improperly.
•
When the unit is operated in high humidity conditions,
you may need to empty the water bucket more
frequently.
•
When the water collection bucket is full, the dehumidier
will stop operating automatically. The Bucket Full
indicator illuminates to alert you of this condition. Empty
the water collection bucket. See “Cleaning.”
•
When the empty water collection bucket is replaced
properly, the dehumidier will restart and operate
normally.
DEFROST MODE
•
If the dehumidier is operated at temperatures below
54°F (12°C), but above 41°F (5°C), the surface of the
evaporator may accumulate a layer of frost which would
reduce the eciency of the dehumidier. So, the
dehumidier will enter periodic defrost mode. The time
to defrost may vary. If the dehumidier freezes up, turn it
o at the power supply and restart.
NOTE: If the room temperature remains below 41°F
(5°C), the dehumidier should be turned OFF.
