equipment, electrical control elements, power lines and screw couplings for
any damage and if they are tightened appropriately. Replace any damaged parts
before the appliance is put into operation if necessary.

by covering the ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers, table-
cloths, curtains, etc. When draining the hose, ensure that the hose is not
blocked and that the open end of the hose is lower than the unit.

standby mode. The LED displays the “water tank full” symbol and an alarm
sounds.

At start-up, the fan runs for 3 seconds before the compressor starts. When
switched off, the fan runs for 3 seconds. The compressor dehumidifies until
the set air humidity value has been reached, and then shuts itself off. The
fan continues to run for 1 additional minute. If the relative air humidity
increases again, the compressor turns back on again.

dehumidification mode by default. After shutting down, the compressor needs 3
minutes before it can be started again.

operation. In so doing, the dehumidification is adjusted and the fan continues
to run.
