• Your dehumidifier must be plugged directly into a properly grounded and polarized three-prong receptacle. If the wall receptacle you intend to use will not accept a three-prong plug, or if you are not sure the outlet is adequately grounded or protected by a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified electrician install the proper outlet according to the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances. Do n nnot u uuse a aan e eextension c ccord o oor a aan adapter p pplug. • Never unplug the dehumidifier by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. • Do not pinch, bend, or knot the power cord. Selecting a aa L LLocation Location IM PORTA NT: 1.

How It Works When the unit is started, the fan begins to pull moisture-laden air across the dehumidifying coils. The coils condense or draw moisture from the air, and air flows through the side louvers into the room as dry, warm air. Moisture removed from air is collected in a bucket on the front of the dehumidifier. The unit is designed to operate between 41 F (5 C), and 96 F (35 C). If the unit is switched off and needs to be switched on again, wait three minutes before doing so. Make sure the tank is fitted correctly otherwise unit will not turn on. 3 OPERATION & FEATURES Allow the unit to reach room temperature before operating. To begin operating the dehumidifier, follow these steps: 1. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded 110/120 volt AC outlet. Note the POWER indicators will illuminate. BUCKET FULL 2. To turn the unit on press the ON/OFF button. The unit will run in the factory setting of CONTINUOUS and high fan speed. It is recommended you leave the unit running in the CONTINUOUS setting for the first three or four days until the sweating and dampness odors have stopped. BUCKET FULL 4 3. After a few days when the Relative Humidity has declined, press the HUMIDITY button to choose either 50%, 60% or 70%, so the room is kept at a comfortable concentration. The unit will cycle on and off keeping the desired level of comfort. BUCKET FULL 4. You can also use the FAN button to change the fan speed to HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW. The indicator light will show the setting you have selected. A higher fan speed will result in quicker moisture removal. BUCKET FULL 5. To shut the unit down, press the ON/OFF button. Note: the power indicator will still be lit when the unit is turned off. Only removing the plug will extinguish these lights. BUCKET FULL 5 REMOVING COLLECTED WATER 1. Emptying the Bucket: a. When the bucket is full the unit will shut down and the BUCKET FULL indicator light will illuminate. BUCKET FULL b. Do not move the unit at this point otherwise water may spill on the floor. c. Press sides of bucket gently to unclip the bucket from the unit. d. Remove the bucket as shown in the photographs below and empty the bucket. e. Replace the empty bucket back into the unit and once seated correctly the unit will start up again. f. You should hear a click when the bucket is in the correct position If the bucket full light does not extinguish, check that the float is correctly snapped in place as indicated by the photo. 6 2.
