Operation Instruction

Operation panel Key description:

1. Power switch key: In the shutdown state, press once to turn on the machine, otherwise turn off the machine.
2. Up key: Increase the humidity setting value.
3. Down key: decrease the humidity setting value.
4. Timer key: used to set the timing time.

Humidity setting:
In the power-on state, press the “Up” or “Down” key once to enter the humidity setting state: the display screen flashes the humidity setting value “ ”. In the humidity setting state, press the “Up” or “Down” key to set the humidity, and the setting range is 10-98% RH. After the key operation is stopped for a few seconds, the humidity setting state is automatically exited.
Timer setting:
In the power-off state, the timer is set to timed power-on. In the power-on state, the timer is set to timed power-off.Press the “Timer key” to set the timer time. The timer time will increase by 1h every time you press it. The setting range is 1 ~ 24h, which can be set circularly. Press and hold the “timer key” for several seconds to continuously adjust the timer time; if the timer time is 00, the timer is invalid.
When the timer is valid, the timer indicator is on. Press the “timer key” once, and the display screen will display the remaining timer time.
After a few seconds, the current humidity value will be automatically displayed.
Action description:
Startup: the fan is turned on, and the compressor 1 is turned on with a delay of several seconds.
Shutdown: the compressor is stopped immediately, and the fan is stopped after a delay of several seconds.
Without turning on the power supply, the compressor can be turned on again after it stops running for 3 minutes.
Defrosting function:
When operating at low ambient temperature, the system will automatically judge whether there is frost, and if there is frost, it will automatically defrost.
Defrosting action: the fan does not stop and the compressor stops.
End of defrosting: the defrosting indicator is off, and the fan and compressor operate according to the humidity control requirements.
Defrost display: when defrosting, the defrosting indicator is on.
Fault Code

(Whether the above fault codes exist depends on whether the actual  model has this function.)
Notice:

1. In case of Ec fault, the machine operation is not controlled by the operation panel.

Temperature Protection Function

1. When the ambient temperature is higher than the high temperature setting value (default 113°F / 45°C), the system enters high temperature protection, prompts “HH”, and the compressor stops running;
2. When the ambient temperature is lower than the low temperature setting value (default 39°F / 4°C), the system enters the low temperature protection, prompts “LL”, and the dehumidifier stops running;

State Description

1. Power On: The fan starts running, and the compressor starts to run after a delay of a few seconds.
2. Power Off: The compressor stops running immediately, and the fan stops after a few seconds delay.
3. To prevent the machine from starting and stopping frequently, there is a 3-minute delay in the start-up interval.

Turn The Dehumidifier Off
Press the Power Switch to turn the dehumidifier off.
Note: To protect the compressor, the fan will continue to operate for 5 seconds after the dehumidifier has shut off. So please do not disconnect the power cord to force the dehumidifier to stop.

Maintenance

Unplug the power cord before maintaining and cleaning the dehumidifier.
Use a soft damp cloth to clean the body of the dehumidifier. Don’t use detergents, scrubbing wires, chemically treated dusting cloths, gasoline, thinner, or other solvents to clean and wipe the machine.
Clean the filter:
There is a washable filter behind the dehumidifier to filter airborne dirt. It is recommended to check the filter regularly and clean it at least once a month.

1. Use a vacuum cleaner or something to gently remove the dirt on the filter:
2. if the filter is particularly dirty, rinse it with warm water and mild detergent, and dry it thoroughly; do not expose the filter to direct sunlight or use other exothermic products to dry the filter, which will deform the filter and its frame;
3. Put the dried filter back into the dehumidifier;|If the dehumidifier fails, please follow the “Troubleshooting” in the manual before contacting ANDTE support. Do not repair or disassemble the dehumidifier by yourself.

Improper maintenance may endanger the safety of users.
Note: Don’t operate the dehumidifier without a filter because dirt and lint maybe clog it.

Troubleshooting

Before seeking support from the service team, you can check the following troubleshooting tips:

2. Query the fault code and request the manufacturer’s technical  support;
Dehumidifying effect is not obvious| 1. Air filter fouling;
2. There are obstacles in the air inlet and outlet of the dehumidifier;
3. The space is not sealed; 4.Refrigerant leakage;| 1.Clean the filter;
2.Remove obstacles;
3.Close the doors and windows, the dehumidification   effect of the confined space is more obvious;
4.Contact the agent or manufacturer for maintenance;
Water leakage| 1. Machine tilt;
2. The outlet pipe is Blocked;| 1.Adjust the machine and place it horizontally; 2.Remove the access door to remove the foreign matter blocked in the pipe;
Abnormal noise| 1. The machine is not placed smoothly;
2. Is the filter blocked;| 1. Relocate the machine to a stable place;
2. Clean the filter;

Humidity always shows “10”(when there is a big difference from the actual humidity)

| Humidity sensor failure| 1. When the “10” fault phenomenon is always displayed,  the  humidity is set to 10%RH, and the machine can   still continue to run and be used normally;
2. Repair and replace the humidity sensor;
Humidity always shows “99”(when there is a big difference from the actual humidity)| 1.The surface of the humidity sensor os condensed or wetted with water; 2.Humidity sensor failure| 1. When the “99” fault phenomenon is displayed all the time, the machine can still continue to dehumidify and operate normally;
2. After the machine has been running for a period of time, when the moisture on the surface of the humidity sensor dissipates,ig can automatically remove the fault and resume normal operation; 3.Repair and replace the humidity sensor;

1. When the above fault cannot be eliminated and it is confirmed that repair is required, please contact the ANDTE support, please do not disassemble the machine for repair without authorization.
2. When the dehumidifier is running or stopped, it is normal to hear the sound of refrigerant circulating.
3. It is normal for hot air to be discharged from the air outlet.

Safety Precautions

1. When using, do not place the dehumidifier on soft, uneven ground to avoid vibration or movement.
2. Do not use thin rods or hard objects to insert into the fuselage to avoid malfunction or danger.
3. When using, please keep the dehumidifier away from heat sources such as heaters and electric kettles to save electricity.
4. When using, please close the doors and windows to achieve the best dehumidification effect.
5. Do not place items before and after the dehumidifier. If the ventilation is blocked, the dehumidification effect will be affected.
6. In case of power failure or long-term non-use, please unplug the power cord.
7. When cleaning the dehumidifier, gently wipe it with a damp cloth, do not directly spray water to clean it.
8. Do not place any objects on the dehumidifier.
9. Please clean the filter every two weeks (do not use hot water above 104°F/40°C, alcohol, gasoline, or toluene).
10. During continuous drainage, the drainage pipe must be placed horizontally or downwards, and must not be uneven or entangled.
11. After the filter is cleaned, please do not place it in direct sunlight to dry it to avoid deformation.
12. Before moving or carrying the dehumidifier, please pour out the accumulated water in the water tank.
