INTRODUCTION
How it Works
When the dehumidifier is started, the fan begins to pull moisture-laden air
across the dehumidifying coils. The coils condense or draw moisture from the
air, and air flows through the top louver into the room as dry, warm air.
Moisture removed from the air is collected in a drain bucket on the front of
the dehumidifier.
The appliance is designed to operate between 41° F (5 ° C), and 90 ° F (32º.C) The “Compressor” circuit has an automatic 3 minute time delayed start if the appliance is turned off and on quickly. This prevents over heating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. Make sure the drain bucket is fitted correctly otherwise the appliance will not turn on.
Energy Saving Guide
This Whynter dehumidifier is an Energy Star rated appliance. Follow the guide
below can help to get the best performance and efficiency from your
dehumidifier.
- Do not cover the air intake and outlet.
- Do not place the appliance in front of curtains or drapes- to ensure they do not obstruct the air intake.
- Keep curtains, blinds or drapes closed during the sunniest part of the day.
- Close all windows and doors.
- Indoor relative humidity should ideally be kept between 30%RH and 80%RH depending on the ambient temperature.
- Make sure the appliance is on a hard and level surface.
- To prolong the compressor’s life, please wait at least 3 minutes before turning the appliance back on after shutting it off.
- Inspect and keep the air filter clean by cleaning regularly.
- Perform routine maintenance.

WATER DRAINAGE INSTRUCTION
Using a portable dehumidifier requires that collected water be emptied frequently. Draining water from this unit can be done in 3 different methods:
DRAIN BUCKET METHOD
1. When the bucket is full, the Full indicator light will light. The
compressor and fan will turn off, the Full indicator will light, and a P2 code
will be displayed.|
---|---
2. It is recommended to turn the unit off before removing the drain
bucket.
3. Grip the left and right handles of the drain bucket securely and
carefully pull out the drain bucket. Do not put the drain bucket on the
floor because the bottom of the bucket is not even which may cause
the water to spill. See Fig.3 and Fig. 4.
4. Remove the water from the drain bucket and replace it back to the
dehumidifier. The drain bucket must be installed properly and securely seated
for the dehumidifier to operate.
5. The machine will restart when the drain bucket is restored to its correct
position. If the unit was turned off prior to the removal of the drain bucket,
press the Power button to restore operation.

that the drain bucket is properly installed and the in right position.
WATER DRAINAGE INSTRUCTIONS
CONTINUOUS / GRAVITY DRAIN METHOD
Water can be automatically emptied into a floor drain by attaching the 20”
continuous/gravity drain hose to the continuous/gravity drain outlet. To use
gravity to drain your portable dehumidifier, it must be installed on a level
surface or at least 12 inches above the ground, on a sturdy table or shelf
unit. When using the function of continuous/ gravity drainage, your drain hose
must be placed horizontally below the drainage hole. Avoid uneven ground and
folding the hose.
1. Remove the continuous drain cover and then attach the 20”
continuous/gravity drain hose. Make sure the hose is securely fastened to
prevent leakage.|
---|---
2. Direct the drain hose toward a drain or other suitable drainage outlet.
Make sure that there are no distortions with the hose that may stop the water
flow. (See Fig. 7)
3. Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed on the unit for
continuous draining to start.
NOTE: When using continuous/gravity drainage setup, there may be some water collected in the water in the drain bucket
WATER PUMP METHOD
One of the key features of this dehumidifier is that it has a water pump that
pushes water up or over a longer distance. Using this feature will enable your
unit to run maintenance-free.
NOTE: The water pump will ONLY engage when the drain bucket is full.
1. Make sure the continuous/gravity drain assembly is removed from
the continuous/gravity drain outlet and the plastic cover is installed.|
---|---
2. Insert the 16 ft. pump drain hose (included) into the bottom pump drain
outlet (See Fig. 8), then lead the drain hose to a suitable drainage facility.
Make sure that the hose is fully inserted to avoid water leakage and no kinks
which will cause the water to stop flowing.
3. Press the Pump button to activate the pump operation.
NOTE: The water pump will ONLY engage when the drain bucket is full.
4. The water pump may make some noise when it starts to work within the first
3 – 5 minutes. This is a part of the unit’s normal operation.
5. Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed on the unit.
NOTE: The Pump Indicator Light will flash when there is a failure in the pump operation. Please turn off the unit and unplug the power cord and check the following points:
- Clean the pump filter – remove the drain bucket from the unit, pull down the pump filter, and clean (See Fig. 9)
- Check the pump drain hose for kinks or obstructions
- Reinstall the pump filter and drain bucket properly. Turn on the unit. If the error repeats, call for service
- Do not use this operation when the outdoor temperature is equal to or less than 32°F. Otherwise, water hose may be blocked as the water will turn to ice and cause the unit to fail. When the pump drain feature is not being used, remove the pump drain hose from the outlet.
