There should be direct access to the electrical plug after connecting the power!
Do not use your dehumidifier under the following conditions:

HOW IT WORKS

Your Ecor-Pro dehumidifier controls the Relative Humidity by passing the air through the unit forcing the excess moisture to condensate over a cooled heat exchanger. This condensate water then flows safely into a fixed drain. The dried air then passes through a final heat exchanger where it is warmed before it re-enters the room area at a slightly elevated temperature. The level of dehumidifying is set with the digital humidistat control.

POSITIONING

There must be free space of at least 30 cm between any other object and the front and the top of the unit.
Your Ecor-Pro dehumidifier can be installed in any area with too high relative humidity, such as the cellar, playing area, shed, archive, or swimming pool.
The dehumidifier will begin to protect from the harmful effects of excess moisture as soon as it is plugged in and switched on.
When positioning your Ecor-Pro dehumidifier, ensure that it is placed on a level surface.
Best results are obtained when windows and doors are closed, thus preventing the possible influx of more humid, air.
When the unit is placed in a (swimming) pool area, connect to the mains via a transformer or a breaking switch, conforms to the local regulations regarding electrical installations.
When the dehumidifier is in operation, open outside doors and windows only when necessary.

WALL MOUNTING

The unit can stand on the floor or hang on a wall. A wall-mounting bracket is provided with your Ecor-Pro dehumidifier.

Fix the supporting bracket with at least 5 screws horizontally to the wall, and use the appropriate fixings for the type of wall – Note the unit is heavy approximately 25kg.

• Hang the unit on the bracket, and the two tongues fit into the slots on the unit’s rear panel.
• Make sure the three rubber support pads on the lower part of the rear panel are properly placed.

CLEANING

Disconnect from the mains before cleaning the unit or any of its components. Cleaning the air filter
Air circulation is impeded and the efficiency of the dehumidifying and air purifying functions decreases when the filter is dirty. It is, therefore, good practice to clean the filter at regular intervals. The precise intervals depend on the room in which the appliance operates and on how frequently it is used.

• Open the front grille by pulling it gently forward at  the top edge
• Remove the filter by sliding it out.
• Clean the filter or wash in tap water.
• Dry the filter before inserting it back and closing the grille.

Housing
Wipe regularly clean with a moist cloth and mild household detergent.
Servicing
Have your dehumidifier once a year serviced by a qualified engineer.
Caution
This unit should not be operated without the air filter fitted. Operation without the air filter may damage the heat exchanger.

DRAINAGE
Connecting the permanent outlet

• Connect the pipe to an outlet tube with the correct diameter.
• Push the other end of the tube into a drain, making sure that the tubing cannot be twisted or folded.
• The entire length of the tube must have a steady fall. the drain.
• Ensure that the outlet of the drainage pipe is not under the water level in

NOTE: In very cold weather conditions precautions should be taken to prevent the drainage pipe from freezing.

CONTROLS

Your Ecor-Pro dehumidifier features a microprocessor-based digital control system for optimal performance control.
All functions are accessible via the membrane keypad shown below:

Functions:

ON/OFF
The unit is switched on and off by pressing the ‘ON/OFF’ button. When the unit is on, the fan runs in the set speed.
Humidity
Press the ‘HUMIDITY ADJUST’ buttons repeatedly to choose the desired level of relative humidity in the area. The corresponding control lights will indicate the selected percentage. The ‘CONT’ control light indicates that the unit is running continuously, disregarding the relative humidity level in the area.
Note: When the desired level of humidity is achieved the compressor will stop, however, the fan will continue to run for approximately 15 minutes, this will clear the heat exchanger of all collected water.
Fan speed
Press the ‘FAN SPEED SELECT’ button to select low or high speed. The corresponding control light will indicate this, Lo=low or Hi=high.
Humidity / Temperature display
The digital display will normally show the measured relative humidity in the area.
Timer
Press the ‘TIMER’ button to run the unit for a limited time period only. The selected time period (in hours) is displayed temporarily on the display panel, repeatedly pressing the button cycles through the available settings. When this mode is selected, the unit will switch itself off after the selected time period has elapsed. Note: During timed operation, the clock symbol indicator is illuminated
Temp
