Care and Cleaning

Turn off the dehumidifier and remove the plug from the wall outlet before cleaning.

Grille and Case

To clean the case:
Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use
bleach or abrasives.

Water Bucket

To clean:
Every few weeks, clean the bucket to prevent growth of
mold, mildew and bacteria. Partially fill the bucket with clean
water and add a little mild detergent. Swish it around in the
bucket, empty and rinse.
NOTE: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the water bucket.

Air Filter

The air filter behind the front grille should be checked and
cleaned at least every 250 hours of operation or more often
if necessary.
After 250 hours of operation, the Clean the Filter indicator
light will glow to remind you to clean the filter. Remove the
filter and clean it. Replace the filter and press the Filter
Timer pad to turn off the Clean the Filter light.
To remove:
Remove the bucket. Grasp the filter edge, and pull it
straight down and out.
To clean:
Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse and let the
filter dry before replacing it.
NOTE: DO NOT put the filter in an automatic dishwasher.
CAUTION
DO NOT operate the dehumidifier
without a filter because dirt and lint will clog it and reduce
performance.
