HOW THE DEHUMIDIFIER WORKS
Your Oster dehumidifier is used to remove excess moisture from the air. The resulting
®
reduction in relative humidity protects buildings and their contents from the adverse
effects of excess humidity.
The environmentally friendly R134a is used as a refrigerant. R134a does not have a
harmful influence on the ozone layer (ODP), a negligible greenhouse effect (GWP) and
is available worldwide. Due to its energy efficient properties, R134a is very suitable as
a refrigerant for this application. Special precautions must be observed due to the high
flammability of the refrigerant.
For optimum performance, it is not recommended to use this appliance in environments
where the temperature exceeds 37ºC or is lower than 5ºC.
The unit should only be used indoors in such areas as a living room or bedroom. Never
use it outdoors. Make sure doors and windows are closed before using the appliance.
BEFORE USING THE DEHUMIDIFIER
1. Select a location for your dehumidifier, on a flat/level surface, about 10 cm away from
the wall.
2. Place unit on a stable and flat floor surface. If the floor surface is not even, there is a
risk the unit might be unstable or topple over. Also, it may result in excessive vibration
and noise.
3. Plug the power cord into a corresponding current outlet.
