DEHUMIDIFIER SETUP AND USE


Place the dehumidifier in an upright position on a stable, flat surface.

Please ensure the unit is a safe distance away from a wall or furniture.

Please keep clothes at a safe distance of 30cm away from the air inlet or outlet to prevent water from dripping into the
unit.

Ensure the tank is correctly fitted, if the tank is full or is not in place, the "Empty Tank"
sound and the dehumidifier will turn off.

Press the Power button

Select the Mode that you want to use the dehumidifier in, for most applications this will be the "Normal"
mode.

To turn off press the Power button

Where to position the dehumidifier


For best results position the dehumidifier somewhere central like a landing or a hallway. As long as the internal doors
are open the moisture will migrate naturally towards the dehumidifier to be processed.

To dry washing it is best to put the dehumidifier into a small room with some heating on. Close the door and windows
and use the dehumidifier in "Laundry"
that air can circulate between the clothes. Ensure that water does not drip onto the dehumidifier.

Smell coming from the dehumidifier

When you first use the dehumidifier and periodically afterwards you might notice a smell coming from the dehumidifier.
This is caused by the Zeolite desiccant material and is not a sign that the dehumidifier is faulty, nor is it harmful to
humans or pets. The smell occurs because the Zeolite absorbs odours from items like cigarettes, cosmetics, hair
sprays, building materials and new furniture and then when the desiccant is heated the smell is discharged into the
room. This smell has been described as being like a burning smell or a sour smell. It is normal, will not last long
and is not a sign of a fault.

Amount of water collected


When you first use your dehumidifier it will work harder to reduce the room humidity down to 50%rh (in
"Normal" mode). This is the time when it will produce the most water and need emptying most
frequently. As the room becomes dryer the dehumidifier collects less water and takes longer to fill the
tank, this is perfectly normal. When the target relative humidity has been reached the dehumidifier will
stop collecting water, again this is normal.

If you find that you still have condensation on your windows or you need to dry the air further then us the
"Maximum" mode. This might well be necessary if you have single glazed windows or if the outside air
