2.2. Product usage
Positioning the unit
A dehumidifier operating in a basement
will have little or no effect in drying an
adjacent enclosed storage area, such
as a closet, unless there is adequate
air circulation in and out of the area.
• Do not use the unit outdoors.
• This dehumidifier is intended for indo-
or residential use only. This dehumi-
difier should not be used for commer-
cial or industrial uses.
• Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, levelled floor, strong enough to
support the unit with a full water collector.
• Allow at least 20 cm of air space on all sides of the unit for good air
circulation.
• Place the unit in an area where the temperature will not fall
below 5º C (41º F). The coils can become covered with frost at
temperatures below 5º C (41º F), which may reduce performance.
• Place the unit away from the clothes dryer, heater or radiator.
• Use the unit 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.
When using the unit
• When first using the dehumidifier, operate it continuously for 24
hours.
• This unit is designed to operate with a working environment
between 5º C / 41º F and 32º C / 90º F, and between 30 % (RH)
and 80 % (RH).
• If the unit has been switched off and needs to be switched on again
quickly, allow approximately three minutes for the correct operation
to resume.
• Do not connect the dehumidifier to a multiple socket outlet, which is
also being used for other electrical appliances.
• Select a suitable location, making sure you have easy access to an
electrical outlet.
• Plug the unit into an electrical socket-outlet with earth connection.

• Make sure the water collector is correctly fitted otherwise the unit
will not operate properly.
NOTE: When the water in the collector reaches to a certain level,
please be careful when moving the unit to avoid it spilling over.
Removing the collected water
There are two ways to remove collected water.
1. Use the collector
• When the collector is full, the Full indicator light will illuminate.
• Slowly pull out the collector. Grip the left and right handles securely,
and carefully pull it out straight, so that water does not spill. Do not
place the collector on the floor because the bottom of the collector
is uneven. Otherwise, the collector will fall and spill water.
• Throw away the water and replace the collector. This must be in
place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.
• The dehumidifier will resume its original operation when the collector
is replaced in its correct position

NOTES:
• When you remove the collector, do not touch any parts inside of the
unit. Doing so may damage the product.
• Make sure you push the collector gently all the way back into the
unit. Banging the collector against anything or failing to push it in
securely may cause the unit not to operate.
• When you remove the collector, if there is some water in the unit
you must dry it.
2. Continuous draining
• Water can be automatically emptied into a floor drain by attaching
the unit to a water hose (Ø16.5*13.5 mm) (not included).
• Remove the rubber plug from the back of the unit and store it in a
safe location.
