Continual drainage
The water reservoir can be automatically emptied via a drain by connecting a water hose to the machine.
(circumference: 12 mm, not included).
·
The outlet for the drain is located on the back of the machine.
·
Pull the rubber stopper out of the opening.
·
Insert the water hose through the opening into the machine. Connect the hose tightly to the drainage
outlet and make sure that the connection is tight and that no water can leak out.
·
Lead the hose to the location to which the water is destined, such as a floor drain. Make sure that this
point is lower than the drainage outlet.
·
Make sure that the hose runs vertically, so that the water can drain quickly.
NOTE: When this continual drainage is not used, make sure that the rubber stopper is in the drainage
hole.
CLEANING
Grill and Housing
Use water and a mild detergent to wipe the grill and the housing clean. Do not use bleach water or
abrasive agents.
Do not pour or spill water directly onto the machine. This can cause electrical shock, damage to the
insulation or rust on the machine.
The grill where the air enters and exits can easily become soiled. Use a vacuum cleaner accessory or a
brush to clean it.
Water reservoir
Clean the water reservoir regularly to prevent the growth of mould and bacteria. Partially fill the water
reservoir with clean water and add a bit of mild detergent. Rinse the reservoir with this solution, pour the
solution out, and rinse the reservoir again.
After cleaning, the reservoir must be replaced correctly into the dehumidifier so that the machine will
function.
NOTE: The water reservoir is not dishwasher safe.
Air Filter
The air filter behind the grill grate should be checked and cleaned every 30 days.
Remove the filter. Clean it with warm water with a mild detergent. Rinse the filter and let it dry before
putting it back.
NOTE: The filter is not dishwasher safe.
NOTE: Never use the dehumidifier without a filter. The machine may get clogged by dirt and dust which
will negatively affect its performance.
When the machine has not been used for a long time
·
Turn the machine off and wait a day before emptying the water reservoir. This gives the machine a
chance to drain and there will be as little residual moisture in the machine as possible.
·
Clean the machine, the water reservoir and the air filter.
·
Cover the machine with a plastic sack.
·
Store the machine upright in a dry, well ventilated place.
