CONTROL PANEL
-
On/Off Button
Press this button to turn the dehumidifier on and off. When you turn the machine on, the ‘power’ light will turn on and the display will show the air humidity percentage at the moment. -
Mode This button allows you to choose from 4 settings:
Dehumidify
The air humidity can be set from 35% relative humidity to 85% relative humidity at 5% intervals. For dryer air, press “-” and set the air humidity to a lower percentage. (min. = 35) For moister air, press “+” and set the air humidity to a higher percentage. (max. = 85) The ideal humidity in the house falls approximately between 40% and 60%. There will be no indicator light with this setting. Note: The compressor switches on and off automatically to reach the set humidity. The fan operates continuously.
Dryer function
With this setting, the dehumidifier operates at maximum capacity. The ventilation speed is high. Select this setting to dry moist clothes more quickly. Position the dehumidifier with the air exhaust aimed at the clothes. Leave approximately 30 to 50 cm between the appliance and the clothes. Caution: do not cover the openings of the appliance. A lack of air circulation can cause overheating and fire. Make sure that no water gets into the appliance; this may cause electrical shocks. The “Dryer” indicator light will light up.
Continuous dehumidifying
Press this button to let the dehumidifier run continuously for maximum dehumidification until the water reservoir is full. The buttons to set the air humidity cannot be used when the device is set to «continual». Press this button again to cancel the continual operation. You can also go back and use the buttons to set the humidity. The “Cont.” indicator light will light up.
Smart dehumidifying
With this function, the dehumidifier will check the humidity automatically and ensure a pleasant climate. The level of humidity will be regulated between 45% and 55%. The level of humidity that was set with the dehumidifying program no longer applies. The “SMD” (Smart Dehumidifying Mode) indicator light will light up. -
Timer
You can set the timer for a maximum of 24 hours. Pressing the “+” and “-” buttons will increase or decrease the time by half an hour. With a setting of more than 10 hours, the time will increase or decrease by an hour. Timer for switching on automatically Press the timer button while the appliance is off.

Once the set time has passed, the appliance will switch off automatically. -
Fan
Select the fan speed using the fan button. The appliance will reduce the humidity more quickly with a higher ventilation speed. The indicator light above the button will light up:- Low: low speed
- Med: medium speed
- Low & Med: high speed
-
“+” and “-” buttons
Use these buttons to set the desired humidity percentage. This can only be done in the Dehumidify mode. See point 2. Mode. -
Display
The standard setting for the display indicates the air humidity in the chamber to an accuracy of approximately 5%. When you select the humidity yourself with the buttons provided, you will always see the desired humidity percentage for which the machine will be set.
Error Messages:
AS= Humidity sensor error: Pull the plug from the outlet and plug it in again. If the error message repeats, have the machine looked at. ES= Temperature sensor error: Pull the plug from the outlet and plug it in again. If the error message repeats, have the machine looked at.
E3= unit malfunction: Pull the plug from the outlet and plug it in again. If the error message repeats, have the machine looked at.

Warning Codes:
P1= The machine is thawing. Let the machine thaw automatically. When the machine has completely thawed, this code will disappear from the screen.
P2=The water reservoir is full or is not in the correct position. Empty the water reservoir and put it back in the correct position. -
Water level indication
When the water reservoir is full, or when it is not replaced correctly, this light will turn on (“Full”). See
“Removing the Water Reservoir”
EXTRA FUNCTIONS
Automatic Defrost
When ice forms in the machine, the machine will automatically start to thaw
itself.
Automatic Shut-Off
When the water reservoir is full, has been pulled out or is not in the correct
position, the dehumidifier will shut off automatically. When the desired
humidity degree has been reached, the machine will turn itself automatically.
Automatic Restart
If the machine is unexpectedly disconnected from the power, when the power is
restored, the machine will turn back on automatically at the setting set
before the power was disconnected.
Wait 3 minutes before restarting operation.
When the machine is stopped, it cannot be restarted for the first three
minutes. This is to protect the machine. The machine will automatically
restart after 3 minutes.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
REMOVING THE WATER IN THE WATER RESERVOIR.
There are two ways to remove the water from the reservoir.
- Use of the Water Reservoir
- When the water reservoir is full, the appliance will automatically stop and the “full” light will turn on.
- Slowly remove the water reservoir from the machine. Hold it securely and pull the reservoir slowly out straight, so that no water is spilled.
- Pour the water out and place the reservoir back in the machine. The reservoir must be placed correctly back in the machine so that the dehumidifier will work properly.
- The machine will resume functioning when the water reservoir is replaced correctly in position.
- Continual Drainage
The water reservoir can be automatically emptied via a drain by connecting a
water hose to the machine. (circumference: 13,5 mm, not included). The outlet
for the drain is located on the back of the machine. Pull the rubber stopper
out of the opening. Insert the water hose through the opening into the
machine. Connect the hose tightly to the drainage outlet and make sure that
the connection is tight and that no water can leak out. Lead the hose to the
location to which the water is destined, such as a floor drain. Make sure that
this point is lower than the drainage outlet. Make sure that the hose runs
vertically, so that the water can drain quickly. In other be no kinks in the
hose.
NOTE : when this continual drainage is not used, make sure that the
rubber stopper hole.
CLEANING
Turn off the machine and pull the plug from the outlet before cleaning the
machine.
Grill and Housing
Use water and a mild detergent to wipe the grills and the housing clean. Do
not use bleach water or abrasive agents. Do not pour or spill water directly
onto the machine. This can cause electrical shock, damage to the insulation or
rust on the machine. The grills where the air enters and exits can easily
become soiled. Use a vacuum cleaner accessory or a brush to clean it.
Water Reservoir
Clean the water reservoir regularly to prevent the growth of mould and
bacteria. Partially fill the water reservoir with clean water and add a bit of
mild detergent. Rinse the reservoir with this solution, pour the solution out,
and rinse the reservoir. After cleaning, the reservoir must be replaced
correctly into the dehumidifier so that the machine will function. NOTE: do
not use a dishwasher to clean the reservoir.
Air Filter
The air filter behind the grill grate should be checked and cleaned every 30
days. Remove the filter. Clean it with warm soapy water. Rinse the filter and
let it dry before putting it back. Do not clean the filter in the dishwasher!
NOTE: never use the dehumidifier without a filter. The machine may get clogged by dirt and dust which will negatively affect its performance.
When the machine has not been used for a long time
- Turn the machine off and wait a day before emptying the water reservoir. This gives the machine a chance to drain and there will be as little residual moisture in the machine as possible.
- Clean the machine, the water reservoir, and the air filter.
- Cover the machine with a plastic sack.
- Store the machine upright in a dry, well-ventilated place.
