CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Care and cleaning of the dehumidifier

Turn the dehumidifier off and remove the plug
from the wall outlet before cleaning.
1. Clean the Grille 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 an electrical shock, cause the insulation
to deteriorate, or cause the unit to rust.
The air intake and outlet grilles get soiled easily, so use
a vacuum attachment or brush to clean.
2. Clean the bucket
Every few weeks, clean the bucket to prevent
growth of mold, mildew and bacteria. 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 clean, the bucket must be in place
and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.
3. Clean the air filter
The air filter behind the front grille should be
checked and cleaned at least every two weeks
or more often if necessary.
NOTE: DO NOT RINSE OR PUT THE FILTER
IN AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.
To remove:
Pull the water bucket out as shown in Fig.10a
or 11a.
Grip the tab on the filter and press it in slightly
to take it out from the filter holder, then pull out
the filter downward for model A.(see Fig.10b).
Take out the right and left filters for the model B.
(see Fig.11b).
Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse
and let the filter dry before replacing it. Do not
clean the filter in a dishwasher.
