• The unit is designated for indoor operation. Never operate or store the unit in direct sunlight.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not clean the dehumidifier by spraying it or immersing it in water. Do not use any chemicals when cleaning the dehumidifier.
• Do not insert any object into the opening of the dehumidifier. Do not place anything on top of the dehumidifier and do not cover with any kind of material while in use.
• Do not unplug the power cord before pressing the Power key to “OFF”, as this could damage the dehumidifier.
• Disconnect from the mains when unit is not in use, when moving the unit, and before cleaning the unit or any of its components. To disconnect, grip the plug with dry hands and pull from the socket. Never pull by the cord.
• Do not run power cord under carpeting, or cover with rugs or runners. Arrange the cord away from areas where it may be tripped over
• Never connect to an electrical outlet using an extension cord. If an outlet is not available, one should be installed by a licensed electrician.
• Place the dehumidifier in location appropriate to the appliance IP rating (see technical data).
• Any service other than regular cleaning setting fan mode or filter replacement should be performed by an authorised service representative. Failure to do so could result in a loss of warranty. Your dehumidifier is supplied with an electrical cable (-2m) and an earthed plug.
• Never operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug. If the supply cord is damaged an approved service representative or a similar qualified person must replace it in order to avoid any hazards.
• There should be direct access to the electrical plug after connecting the power.
• This product is not made for DIY repair.
• Do not use your dehumidifier under the following conditions:
  • if the power cable is damaged
  • close to heat source
  • near flammable gas or combustibles, such as gasoline, benzene, thinner, etc. as it may cause an explosion or fire.
  • where small children or pets may be left unattended
  •  where the power cable may be easily damaged
  • where there is a risk of liquids falling on the unit
  • where it may be damaged by chemicals

HOWIT WORKS

The air to be processed is suctioned via a filter into the cabinet by a centrifugal fan. The pressured air mainly passes a desiccant rotor to leave moisture on it and becomes dry air flowing out through the main outlet. A motor slowly drives the rotor to pass through a heater-collector portion where the moisture on the rotor will be evaporated out to the wet air outlet, and the rotor is regenerated for later moisture adsorption again. The wet air is a small part of the pressured air that passes the heater to be heated up and then passes the rotor to bring moisture out.

UNIT SETUP

Positioning the dehumidifier
The dehumidifier is designed for indoor use, but can be placed either inside (internal positioning) or outside (external positioning) the room to be dried.
A) Internal Positioning

1. Place centrally inside the room.
2. Ensure inlet and outlet ducts are clear of obstruction.
3. If required, ducts can be connect to the outlet and/or inlet to direct the drying to specific areas.
4. The wet air out MUST be ducted outside the room.

B) External Positioning

1. Connect ducting to the outlet to direct the dry airstream into the room to be dried.
2. Optionally, the inlet may also be ducted to the room to give a re-circulation effect.

NOTE:

1. As the wet-air-out-discharge is warm and very humid, ensure it is directed where it will have no adverse effect on the immediate environment.
2. Keep the duct length as short as possible to minimize static pressure loss.
3. All duct connections must be air tight and vapor tight to ensure full performance.
4. The ducting must be insulated when there is a risk of freezing.
5. The opening to the inlet duct should be located to prevent picking up dust and debris, rain and snow or contaminants such as engine exhaust gases, steam and harmful vapors.
6. Wet air duct must resist corrosion and withstand up to 70°C.
7. Wet-air-out should be declined from the dehumidifier where possible if there is a risk of any condensation build up in the exhaust duct running back into the dehumidifier. This can be avoided either with short wet-air-out duct lengths or adequately insulating the wet-air-duct to prevent condensation. Should water be seen dripping from the dehumidifier, switch off the appliance immediately. Allow water in the unit to dry completely. Correct the defect in the wet-air-out ducting and reconnect to the power to start operating again. Do not operate if there is a concern the unit is not thoroughly dry inside.
8. The wet-air-out flange outlet is 73mm and is compatible with pipes sized 76mm or 75mm (with fastener). Decreasing the exhaust pipe diameter will decrease performance. Flexible ducting may be used on all inlets and outlets. All ducting lengths should be kept to a minimum. Longer lengths will reduce performance. For the maximum recommended lengths, refer to the Specifications table (page 14).
9. Input air filter must be used to prevent contamination to the interior components of the machine. 1 o. Periodical cleaning or replacement of the filter is required.
