CHOOSING A LOCATION
A Dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little no effect in drying out an adja-
cent enclosed storage area, such as a closet, unless there is adequate circulation of air
in and out of the area.
•
Do not use outdoors
•
This dehumidifier is intended for indoor residential applications only. This unit
should not be used for commercial or industrial applications
•
Place the dehumidifier on a smooth , level floor surface that is strong enough to
support the unit with a full bucket of water.
•
Allow at least 12"-18" of air flow on all sides and at least 40" for the exhaust side.
•
Place the dehumidifier in an area where the temperature will not fall below 41°F.
The coils can become covered with frost at temperatures below 41°F, which may
reduce performance
•
Use the dehumidifier in cooking, laundry, bathing and dishwashing areas that have
excessive moisture. NOTE: Place the dehumidifier away from a clothes dryer.
•
Use the dehumidifier to prevent moisture damage anywhere books or valuables
are stored.
•
Use the dehumidifier in a basement to help prevent moisture damage.
•
The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective.
•
Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.
AUTOMATIC DEFROST
When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor will cycle off and the fan will continue to run until the frost disappears.
When the coils is completely defrosted, the compressor or fan (depending on the model) will automatically restart and
dehumidification will resume.
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE HOSE
Water can be automatically emptied by attaching a hose to the continuous drainage port on the side of the dehumidifier. This will
allow the unit to run continuously (depending on the selected humidity level) without having to empty the water bucket. To drain,
simply attach a standard garden hose (not included).
•
Remove the drain cap (1) by unscrewing the cap (counter-clockwise) from the back of the unit.
•
Remove the drain plug (2) after removing the drain cap
•
Attach the garden hose connector (included) to the dehumidifier
•
Attach the garden hose (not included) to the garden hose connector on the dehumidifier to start the continuous drainage process.
NOTE: The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate correctly.
