SOLUTION
The capacity of your dehumidifier may not be
adequate for the room it is used in. It is recommended
to add an extra dehumidifier for large areas.
Make sure all windows or doors to the
outside are closed and tightly sealed.
Empty the water tank.
Position the water tank correctly into the unit. Unit
will not operate until the water tank is secure in place.
The temperature of the air from the vent depends
on the room environment and other factors. It can
fluctuate and this is normal. No action required.
The dehumidifier may not work effectively in
low temperature environments. Increase the
temperature of the room or wait until the
temperature increases to use the dehumidifier.
This is normal. Frost will disappear in an hour
or so after the dehumidifier is switched OFF.
Raise the front of the Dehumidifier ½ to 1 inch
(1.27 cm to 2.54 cm) from the floor. The water
condensation will drain out the back hose and not
into the bucket.
