Defrosting operation
When the evaporator coils become frosted, the defrost indicator will illuminate, meaning the
defrost function will start. The compressor will switch off and the fan will run until the frost is
removed. When the unit runs at a room temperature between 5-12ºC, it will stop and defrost
approximately every eight minutes. When the room temperature is between 12-18ºC, it will
stop and defrost approximately every 25 minutes. When the room temperature is between
18-24ºC, it will stop and defrost approximately every 120 minutes.
Wait three minutes before resuming operation. After the compressor has stopped, it will not
restart until three minutes have passed.
The room temperature increases during the operation.
This dehumidifier does not have a cooling function. It will produce heat during use and
increase the room temperature by 1-4°C. This temperature rise may be very distinct when
the appliance is in a cabinet or similar spaces. Closed doors and windows raise the
temperature, as well as other appliances and sunlight.
Dehumidifying capacity
The graph below shows the capacity of the dehumidifier. The capacity mentioned is based
on a room temperature of 30°C, relative humidity of 80% and the air outlet being fully open.
Note: At different temperatures and relative humidity levels, the dehumidifier's capacity may
vary.
In rooms with the same temperature, the dehumidifier capacity will be higher when the
relative humidity is higher, and lower when the relative humidity is lower. Similarly, at the
same relative humidity, the dehumidifying capacity will be higher in higher temperatures
and lower in lower temperatures.
If the appliance is placed inside a cabinet, its dehumidifying capacity may significantly
decrease shortly after operation. This occurs because the humidity inside the cabinet is
rapidly reduced, resulting in higher levels of dryness.
