Important notes
- Store the device in a room where there are no permanent fire (e.g. operating gas equipment) and ignition sources (e.g. operating electric heater).
- Store the device in a way that prevents mechanical damage. Do not pierce or expose to fire.
- Any person involved in servicing or working on a refrigerant circuit should have a current valid certificate issued by an accredited organisation that confirms their qualifications regarding the safe handling of refrigerants according to requirements. Servicing works must be performed only according to the device manufacturer’s guidelines. Maintenance or repair works that require the assistance of other trained personnel should be performed under the supervision of a person competent in the use of flammable refrigerants.
- Before performing any works on circuits containing flammable refrigerants, it is essential to perform a safety inspection to minimise ignition risks. Works should be performed according to a control procedure to minimise the risk of flammable gas or vapours being present during the works. All maintenance personnel and other persons working in the vicinity must be instructed in the nature of the work. Avoid working in confined spaces. Isolate the area around the workplace. Ensure that the area has been inspected by means of the control of flammable materials. Refrigerant may be odourless.
- The device contains a determined amount (in grams) of R290 refrigerant (see the nameplate).
- R290 is a refrigerant that meets the requirements of the European directives concerning environmental protection. Do not pierce any element of the refrigerant circuit.
- When installing, operating or storing the device in a place without adequate ventilation, the room must be designed in such a way that no refrigerant will accumulate (in case of leakage). Refrigerant accumulation can cause a fire or explosion due to the presence of electric heaters, stoves or other sources of ignition.
- Transport of equipment containing flammable refrigerant: see transport regulations.
- Equipment symbol designation: see local regulations. Disposal of equipment containing flammable refrigerant: see national regulations.
- Equipment/devices storage: store in compliance with the manufacturer’s guidelines.
- Storage of packed (unsold) equipment: The protective packaging of stored equipment should prevent the refrigerant from leaking in case of mechanical damage to the equipment. The maximum number of items of equipment to be stored together is specified in local regulations.

DEVICE OPERATION
The dehumidifier has three operating modes: laundry drying mode,
dehumidification mode, continuous dehumidification mode. To start the device,
press the “POWER” button. Each press of the “MODE” button switches the
operating mode to the next one.
Laundry drying mode: maximum output and maximum blowing level. Neither the
humidity nor fan speed can be set.
Dehumidification mode: The humidity and fan speed can be set. The device will
turn on and off while keeping the humidity in the room below the value chosen
by the user.
Continuous dehumidification mode: The device will operate in continuous mode.
The humidity cannot be set, the fan speed can be set.
Humidity setting:
The humidity level can be set between 30% RH and 80% RH in 5% increments. Each
press of the “HUM” button increases the expected humidity level by 5%. After 5
seconds after selecting the expected humidity level, the display will indicate
the reading of the humidity sensor. When the humidity is above or below the
set humidity value, the dehumidifier automatically turns on or off. When the
humidity level is set to 30% RH, the dehumidifier will operate in the
continuous dehumidification mode.
The LED at the “HUM” button indicates the compressor status.
Setting the timer:
The dehumidifier has a delayed start and shutdown function. To set the time
for delayed start or shutdown, press the “TIMER” button. Each press will
increase the time by 1 hour. Pressing the button longer will change the time
more quickly. You can set the timer up to 24 hours. If the delayed start/off
function is active, the LED at the TIMER button will be lit.
“CHILD LOCK” – control panel lock
To lock the control panel, hold down the “CHILD LOCK” button for 2 seconds,
the control panel and other buttons will be locked. To unlock the control
panel and buttons, press and hold down the “CHILD LOCK” button again for 2
seconds.
Memory function:
The device automatically restores the operating status when the power is
turned on. If the device is turned on and there is a power outage when the
voltage returns, the device will start while maintaining the configured
parameters or pre-off settings.
Automatic defrosting function:
When the internal temperature on the cold plate reaches a temperature close to
zero, the dehumidifier will automatically start the defrosting mode. The unit
will be turned off, the fan will work at full speed. The “DEHU” LED on the
control panel will flash. The dehumidifier will resume operation once the
right temperature is reached.
Overflow protection:
When the tank is full of water, the device will turn off automatically. The
indicator will flash and the device will give an audible signal. After
draining the water from the tank, the indicator will go out and the
dehumidifier will restart. Note: The water tank must be in the correct
position.
Continuous drainage function:
To allow continuous drainage of water, with the water tank bypassed, the
continuous hose must be connected for drainage (15) in the water drain (12),
and the other end of it put in the drain into the sewer.
RESETTING THE APPLIANCE SETTINGS AND ESTABLISHING A NEW CONNECTION
To connect the device to the local WiFi network, reset the WiFi connection
settings. The device should be in sleep mode. Press the “SPEED” buttons and
hold for about 5 seconds. When the WiFi LED will flash quickly, the appliance
will be ready to search. CAUTION: the appliance operates only with 2.4 GHz
wireless networks. The network should use WPA2-PSK encryption and AES
protocol.
CONNECTING THE APPLICATION WITH THE APPLIANCE USING WIFI AND BLUETOOTH
Press the “add device” button after starting the application. The appliance
should be found after about 15 seconds. Press the button to continue adding.
Select the available WiFi network and enter the appropriate password. Press
the button to continue. After a while, a message indicating that the appliance
has been added correctly should be displayed.
CONNECTING THE APPLICATION WITH THE APPLIANCE USING WIFI
Press the “add device” button after starting the application. In the “Add
manually” section, select the product group “small appliances…” and then the
“air dehumidifier”. Then select the available WiFi network and enter the
appropriate password. The application should disconnect from the current WiFi
network, connect with the appliance and provide configuration parameters. The
application should return to the previous network. After a while, a message
indicating that the appliance has been added correctly should be displayed.
CONTROLLING THE APPLIANCE USING THE APP
The application indicates the current temperature and humidity in the room.
The application allows you to change the expected humidity level, choose the
intensity of air supply,change the operating mode. This allows you to change
other settings: – button lock – switch off sounds – time switch, in how many
hours the device should start – time switch, in how many hours the device
should turn off.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
