drying out an adjacent enclosed area, such as a closet,
unless there is adequate circulation of air in and out
of the area.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Before cleaning and maintenance, turn the power off
on the control panel of the dehumidifier. Wait a few
minutes then unplug the unit from the outlet. Not doing
so increases the risk of electric shock or fire.
The dehumidifier's water collection tank must be cleaned
with soap and warm water or a mild detergent frequently.
Mold and mildew can build up quickly, and when inside
a dehumidifier tank, it can get dispersed into the air,
affecting air quality.
Several times a season, use a vacuum with a brush
attachment to clean the intake and exhaust grilles. Dust
and debris build-up can cause blockages that can lead to
deterioration of the unit.
Cleaning Filter
To keep the appliance working efficiently, it is recommended
to clean the filter every week of operation:
• Use a vacuum with a brush attachment to remove dust
accumulation from the filter.
• If filter is very dirty, immerse it in warm water and rinse
several times. The water temperature should never be
hotter than 104°F (40°C). Allow filter to fully dry before
reattaching back to the dehumidifier.
End of Season Maintenance and Storage
• T urn off power and unplug from outlet.
• Empty the bucket.
• Remove cap and drain remaining water into a basin.
• When all water has been drained, put the cap back
in place.
• Clean filter and dry thoroughly before reinstalling.
• Cover the appliance for dust protection.
• Store the dehumidifier upright in a dry location.
Start of Season Checks
• Inspect dehumidifier for signs of damage.
• Inspect power cable and plug for signs of damage.
• Follow the installation instructions precisely.
