OPERATING THE UNIT

Removing the collected water

There are two ways to remove collected water.
1. Using the water bucket
• When the unit is off and the bucket is full, the unit will
beep 8 times and the Full indicator light will flash
(Display will show P2).
• When the unit is on and the bucket is full, the compressor
turns off and the fan turns off after 30 seconds for drying
the water of the condenser. The unit will then beep 8 times
and the Full indicator light will flash (Display will show P2).
• Slowly pull out the bucket. Grip the left and right
handles securely, and carefully pull outwards so the water
does not spill. Do not set the bucket on the floor
because the bottom of the bucket is uneven. Doing so
will cause the bucket to fall and the water to spill.
• Pour out the water and replace the bucket. The
bucket must be securely and properly positioned for the
dehumidifier to operate.
• The machine will re-start when the bucket is placed
in its correct position.
NOTES:
• When you remove the bucket, do not touch any parts
inside the unit. Doing so may damage the product.
• Be sure to gently push the bucket securely into the unit.
Banging the bucket against anything or failing to
push it in securely may cause the unit not to operate.
• Please be sure to dry any water you may see on or in
the unit when you remove the bucket.
2. Continuous draining.
• Water can be automatically emptied into a floor
drain by attaching the unit with a water hose
(not included).
• Remove the rubber plug from the back drain
hose outlet. Attach a drain hose (ID=13.5mm)
and lead it to a suitable drainage facility(see Fig.7).
• Make sure the hose is attached securely so there are no leaks.
• Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that
there are no kinks that will stop the water flow.
• Place the end of the hose into the drain and make sure
the end of the hose is level or sloping downwards allowing
the water to flow smoothly. Never have the water flow
upwards.
• Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed
on the unit for continuous draining to start.
NOTE: When the continuous drain feature
is not being used, remove the drain hose
from the back drain hose from the back drain hose outlet and
replace the rubber plug.

Care and cleaning of the dehumidifier

Turn the dehumidifier off and remove the plug
from the wall outlet before cleaning.
1 . Cleaning the Grill and Case
Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach
or abrasives.
Do not splash water directly onto the main unit. Doing
so may cause rust, insulation deterioration, or an
electrical shock.
The air intake and outlet grill get soiled easily; use a
brush or vacuum attachment for cleaning.
2 . Cleaning the bucket
Clean the bucket every two weeks to prevent mold, mildew,
and bacteria growth. Partially fill the bucket with clean water
and add a little mild detergent. Swish it around in the bucket,
empty and rinse.
NOTE: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the bucket.
After cleaning, the bucket must be in securely positioned
for the dehumidifier to operate.
3 . Cleaning the air filter
The air filter behind the front grill should be
checked and cleaned every 30 days.
NOTE: DO NOT RINSE OR PUT THE FILTER
IN AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.
To remove:
Grip the tab on the filter and pull it upward, then
pull it out as shown in Fig.8.
Wipe the filter with a warm, damp cloth (a mild
detergent can be added if desired). Let the filter dry completely
before re-inserting it. Do not clean the filter in a dishwasher.
To attach:
Insert the air filter into the unit from the underside to
the upside. See Fig.10.
CAUTION:
DO NOT operate the dehumidifier without a filter.
Dirt and lint will clog the unit and reduce performance.
4 . When not using the unit for extended periods
After turning off the unit, wait one day before emptying
the bucket.
Clean the main unit, water bucket and air filter.
Cover the unit with a plastic bag.
Store the unit upright in a dry, well-ventilated place.
