CONTROL PANEL
Status lights
-
Full water container
Goes on when the water container is full, or not properly inserted. -
Automatic defrosting
Goes on when automatic defrosting is in progress. Flashes with 5 Hz if there is a fault on the room temperature sensor or evaporator temperature sensor. -
Continuous operation
-
Operating mode 40% relative humidity
-
Operating mode 50% relative humidity
-
Operating mode 60% relative humidity
NOTE
If the status light for automatic defrosting starts flashing, unplug and then plug in the plug again. Contact the retailer if the fault persists.
The float switch switches off the dehumidifier when the water container is full, or not properly inserted, and when the water container is taken out. On some models the float continues working for 30 seconds. -
Mode selector: Press to select operating mode: continuous dehumidification 40% humidity 50% humidity: 60% humidity: continuous dehumidification.
-
Button OFF/ON: Press to start/switch off the dehumidifier.
FIG. 4
Start delay 3 minutes
When the dehumidifier has been stopped it will not start for 3 minutes. This is a safety function, and is completely normal.
Automatic defrosting
If frost forms on the evaporator coils the compressor will switch off, and the fan will run until the frost has melted.
Automatic restart
When the power supply is reset after a power failure the dehumidifier restarts with the previously set function.
USE
POSITIONING
The product has little dehumidifying effect in adjacent separate areas without good air circulation.
-
Do not use the dehumidifier outdoors.
-
The dehumidifier is only intended for household use. It is not intended for industrial or commercial use.
-
Place the dehumidifier on a level, stable surface that can support the weight of the dehumidifier with a full water container.
-
Leave at least 20 cm of free space on all sides to ensure the adequate circulation of air
FIG. 5 -
The lowest operating temperature is 5°C. At lower temperatures frost can form on the evaporator coils, which reduces the performance of the dehumidifier.
-
Place the dehumidifier at a safe distance from sources of heat.
-
Use the dehumidifier to ensure a suitable humidity in the air for books or valuables, and to prevent damage due to damp.
-
Only use the dehumidifier in enclosed areas.
-
Close windows, doors and other openings.
-
Wheels can be fitted on the corners of the dehumidifier. Do not run the dehumidifier over carpets.
NOTE:
Wheels are not included on all models.
- Do not move the dehumidifier when there is water in the water container. The dehumidifier can tip over, and the water run out.
HOW TO USE
- When using the dehumidifier for the first time it should be switched on continuously for 24 hours.
- When the dehumidifier has been switched off it cannot be started for 3 minutes.
- Connect the dehumidifier to a separate power circuit.
- Put the dehumidifier in a suitable place and make sure that the power point is easily accessible.
- The dehumidifier must only be connected to a correctly earthed power point.
- Check that the water container is properly inserted, otherwise the dehumidifier will not work.
NOTE
Move the dehumidifier carefully when there is water in the container
DEFLATING
The water can drained off in two ways:
Water container
- The status light Full goes on when the water container is full. Carefully pull out the water container. Grip the handles on both sides firmly and pull the container straight out. Do not put the container down – the bottom is uneven and it cannot stand upright.
- Pour out the water and replace the container. Check that the water container is properly inserted, otherwise the dehumidifier will not work.
- The dehumidifier starts automatically with the previous settings when the container is replaced.
NOTE
- Do not touch any parts inside the dehumidifier when removing the water container, this could damage the dehumidifier.
- Push the water container carefully into the dehumidifier, otherwise the dehumidifier can be damaged.
- Wipe off any spilled water in the dehumidifier before replacing the container.
- Pull out the water container a little.
- Grip the handles on both sides firmly and pull the container straight out.
- Pour out the water.
FIG. 6
Continuous drainage
The water can be drained automatically to a drain with a hose with a diameter of 16.5 x 13.5 mm (sold separately)
- Remove the drain plug on the back of the dehumidifier and put it in a safe place.
- Connect the hose.
- Check that the connection is tight.
- Put the end of the hose in a suitable drain. The drain must be lower than the outlet on the dehumidifier. The hose must go down towards the drain. Avoid pulling the hose.
FIG. 7
NOTE
- Remove the hose and insert the rubber plug when the hose is not in use.
- The hose must go down all the way towards the drain.
- Do not fold or bend the hose.
MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Switch off the dehumidifier and pull out the plug before cleaning.
Cleaning the grilles and casing
- Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use strong or abrasive detergents.
- Do not expose the dehumidifier to splashing water – this can damage the insulation and result in a risk of electric shock and/or cause corrosion.
- Clean the grilles for the air intake and outlet with a vacuum cleaner or brush.
Cleaning the water container
Clean the water container every two or four weeks to prevent the build-up of mildew and bacteria etc. Pour a little fresh water with mild detergent into the water container, swish around, pour out and rinse.
NOTE:
- Do not wash the water container in a dishwasher.
- Check after cleaning that the water container is properly inserted, otherwise the dehumidifier will not work.
Cleaning the air filter
Check and clean the air filter, which sits inside the front grille, at least every other week.
NOTE:
Do not wash the filter with water, or in a dishwasher.
Removing the air filter
-
Pull out the water container.
-
Press the flap on the filter inwards a little to release the filter from the holder, and then pull down the filter.
FIG. 8 -
Clean the filter with hot soapy water. Rinse and allow to dry before fitting. Do not wash the filter in a dishwasher.
Fitting the air filter
- Put the filter in the dehumidifier, press the flap inwards and press up the filter.
- Replace the water reservoir.
NOTE
- Clean the casing and front with a soft, oil-free cloth, or with a cloth moistened with a mild detergent. Rinse and wipe dry.
- Do not use strong abrasive detergents, wax or polish on the front of the casing
- Clean the control panel with a dry or lightly moistened cloth. The penetration of water can cause the electronic components to stop working.
- Never use the dehumidifier without a filter – dust and impurities will reduce the performance of the dehumidifier.
STORAGE
If the dehumidifier is not going to be used for some time:
-
Switch off the dehumidifier, and empty the water container after one day.
-
Clean the dehumidifier, the water container and the air filter.
-
Wind up the power cord and secure with the strap.
FIG. 9 -
Cover the dehumidifier with a plastic bag.
-
Store the dehumidifier upright in a dry, well-ventilated area.
NOTE
Undo the screw on the lid of the water container before cleaning and replace it afterwards
TROUBLESHOOTING
The troubleshooting guide is used to determine the causes of common problems and how they can be rectified. Contact your dealer if you experience a problem that is not included in this troubleshooting guide.
THE DEHUMIDIFIER WILL NOT START
- The plug is not properly plugged into the power point.
