CHOOSING A LOCATION

A Dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little or no effect in drying out an adjacent enclosed storage area, such as a closet, unless there is adequate circulation of air in and out of the area.

• Do not use outdoors.
• This dehumidifier is intended for indoor use only. Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor surface that is strong enough to support the unit with a full bucket of water.
• Allow at least 12″-18″ of air flow on all sides.
• Place the dehumidifier in an area where the temperature will not fall below 41 °F (5°C).
• Use the dehumidifier in cooking, laundry, bathing and dishwashing areas that have excessive moisture. NOTE: Place the dehumidifier away from a clothes dryer.
• Use the dehumidifier to prevent moisture damage anywhere books or valuables are stored.
• Use the dehumidifier in a basement to help prevent moisture.
• The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective.
• Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.

AUTOMATIC DEFROST

When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor will cycle off and the fan will continue to run until the frost disappears. When the coils are completely defrosted, the compressor or fan (depending on the model) will automatically restart and dehumidification will resume.

CONTINUOUS MODE

CONTINUOUS MODE— GARDEN HOSE INSTALLATION AND SETUP

Water can be automatically emptied by attaching a hose to the continuous drainage port on the back of the dehumidifier. This will allow the unit to run continuously (depending on the selected humidity level) without having to empty the water bucket. To drain, simply attach a standard garden hose (not included). The thread standard for garden hoses in the US and its territories is known as GHT or “garden hose thread” which has an outer diameter of 1 1/16 inches (1.0625 inches or 27.0 mm) and a pitch of 11.5 TPI.

• Place dehumidifier on a level surface.
• Unscrew the cap on the back of the unit to access the garden hose nozzle
• Thread a garden hose (not supplied) onto the accessible nozzle, lead to a floor drain and cut to length. Make sure that there are no kinks or knots in the garden hose.
• Turn on the unit and press the MODE button until set to CONTINUOUS.

•  The dehumidifier automatically turns off when either condition occurs. Change to a lower setting or empty the water bucket and replace properly.

•  The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.

•  There is a protective time delay (up to 3 min.) to prevent tripping of the compressor overload. For this reason, the unit may not start normal dehumidification for 3 min. after it is powered back on.

The dehumidifier does not dry the air as it should| •  Not enough time allowed for unit to remove moisture.

•  Airflow is restricted.

•  Dirty filter.

•  The Humidity Control may not be set low enough.

•  Doors and windows may not be closed tightly.

•  Clothes dryer may be blowing moist air into the room.

•  Room temperature is too low.

•  Seethe CLEAN FILTER section.

•  For drier air, press the **** button to lower the percent humidity desired in the room, or set the dehumidifier to CO for maximum dehumidification.

•  Check that all doors, windows, and other openings are securely closed.

•  Install the dehumidifier away from the dryer. The dryer should be vented outside.

•  Moisture removal is best at higher room temperatures. Lower room temperatures will reduce the moisture removal rate. This model is designed to operate at temperatures above 41°F (5ºC).

The dehumidifier runs too much| •  The area to be dehumidified is too large.

•  Doors and windows are open.

| •  The capacity of your dehumidifier may not be adequate for the room size.
