WATER TANK

OPERATION

The water tank holds accumulated condensed water and by means of a safety switch, controls both the water

level and operation of the dehumidification process- i.e. When the water tank is full and/or accidentally

displaced inside the cabinet, the float switch actuator (inside the tank) breaks contact with the safety switch.

This condition results in the immediate shut down of the compressor and fan motor system, preventing

moisture from being condensed.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (cont’d)

DEHUMIDIFYING is a means of removing moisture from the air. A dehumidifier will help to protect your

home and valued possessions from damage (swelling) caused by moisture in the air. Essentially a dehumidifier

removes moisture from air as moist air passes over a dehumidifying (evaporator) 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 also contributes to lowering the relative

humidity of the surrounding air.

DEHUMIDIFYING

MODE INSTRUCTIONS

When the “on/off” button is activated (pressed), the

power light turns to a state “on” condition and the

dehumidifier automatically defaults to:

Display: Current Ambient Room Humidity

(RH%)

Humidity Setting:60% RH

Fan Speed: High

IMPORTANT NOTE: Depending on humidity

conditions of the surrounding environment, the

dehumidifier may not start automatically under the

default setting (this is an indication that the humidity

level of the surrounding environment is lower than

the “default” setting of 60% RH). Therefore, it may

be necessary to scroll through each of the different

dehumidifier settings 35% - 80% until the

“humidstat” (sensor) recognizes conditions that will

allow the unit to operate.

DEHUMIDIFYING MODE SELECTION:

1) To turn the unit on press the ON/OFF button.

2a) Press the humidity “UP” or “DOWN” button to

select a desired RH operating value (35% -80%)

2b) Press the CONTINUOUS button. When

CONTINUOUS mode is selected, the humidistat

(sensor) will be by-passed and the compressor

will operate non-stop regardless of humidity

conditions.

FAN SPEED SELECTION:

3) Select a fan speed on the keypad. The speed you

select is identified by the (illuminated) indicator

light located directly above the selection made.

When the unit is first connected to the electrical outlet, the (green) power light

will not light until the “on/off” button is pressed.

AIR FILTER

Your dehumidifer features a removable Air Filter, located at the front of the unit (behind the

air intake grill) directly above the water tank compartment.

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) Grasp the filter handle, and pull the filter out. The filter will slide out

easily (see Fig. 2)

2) Clean the filter thoroughly using a vacuum cleaner or wash using

lukewarm water and mild detergent. Dry thoroughly before re-installing.

3) To re-install the air filter, slide the filter back inside the tracks and push

inward.

Fig. 2

IMPORTANT: Never tamper with or attempt to defeat the water level (safety) float

switch system. Proper installation of the water tank is crucial to maintaining reliable

dehumidifier operation.

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 intake, impacting negatively on operating efficiency.
