and has musty odor only in humid weather.

odor. Damp spots show on walls or floor.
Wet—Space feels and smells wet. Walls or floor sweat,

Table indicates recommended GE dehumidifier models, based on the area of the space to be dehumidified and the conditions that would exist in that space when a
dehumidifier is not in use. Dehumidification variables also include such other factors as climate, laundry equipment, number of family members, number of doors and
8
windows and degree and intensity of area activity.
Possible Causes
The dehumidifier
is unplugged.
The fuse is blown/circuit
breaker is tripped.
Dehumidifier has reached its
preset level or bucket is full.
Bucket is not in the
proper position.
Did not allow enough time
to remove the moisture.
Airflow is restricted.
The Humidity Control may
not be set low enough.
Doors and windows may not
be closed tightly.
Clothes dryer may be
blowing moisture-laden
air into the room.
Room temperature
is too low.
Area to be dehumidified
is too large.
Doors and windows are open.
Dehumidifier has been recently
turned on or room temperature
is below 65°F (18°C).
Air is moving through
the dehumidifier.
Bucket drain hose
connection may be loose.
Water bucket is not
all of the way in.
What To Do
• Make sure the dehumidifier's plug is pushed completely
into the outlet.
• Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and replace
the fuse or reset the breaker.
• The dehumidifier automatically turns off when this
occurs. Empty the bucket and replace properly.
• See the Installing the Water Bucket section.
• When first installed, allow at least 24 hours to maintain
the desired dryness.
• Make sure there are no curtains, blinds or furniture
blocking the front or back of the dehumidifier. See the
Choosing a Location section.
• Press the Humidity Control
humidity setting.
• Check that all doors, windows and other openings
are securely closed.
• Install the dehumidifier away from the dryer.
The dryer should be vented to the outside.
• Moisture removal is best at higher room temperatures.
Lower room temperatures will reduce the moisture
removal rate. This unit is designed to be operated at
temperatures above 65°F (18°C).
• Refer to the chart below to see if the capacity of your
dehumidifier is adequate.
• Close all doors and windows to the outside.
• This is normal. Frost will usually disappear
within 60 minutes. See the Automatic Defrost section.
• This is normal.
• Check the hose if one is attached.
• See the Installing the Water Bucket section.
