Preface
We would like to congratulate you on your decision to
purchase a BONECO D7064 dehumidifier. If the relative
humidity is too high, the air in a room cannot absorb the
moisture in it. The result is that it condenses on cold surfaces (windows, badly insulated walls) or household objects.
The consequences are:
• Mildew/fungi
• Stains
• Corrosion
• Polluted air
The possible effects of fungi on health vary from problems
with breathing, allergy reactions and irritated eyes to
stomach complaints.
Tips for your health
The use of a dehumidifier does not replace the need to air
a room regularly. The dehumidifier may absorb the excess
moisture but it cannot remove harmful substances.If
you think that your health complaints are connected with
influences in living or working areas, you should undergo a
full health examination and have yourself specially tested
for the presence of harmful substances in your body.
Depending on the diagnosis, it is advisable to have a biological test carried out on the areas.
Important safety directions
• Carefully read the safety directions before using
and maintaining your product.
• Remove all packaging material from the appliance.
Ensure that it does not come into the vicinity of
babies or small children, thus preventing the danger
of suffocation.
• Before you connect the appliance to the power
supply, you should check whether the voltage is
within the limits indicated on the type plate.
• The dehumidifier may only be used for the ends
for which it was developed. PLASTON is not liable
for damage arising from inappropriate use.
• The dehumidifier is a safe appliance. But you should,
in common with other electrical appliances, always
use it with care.
• Before turning on the appliance for the first time,
you should ensure that it has been upright for at
least 2 hours prior to operation.
This appliance may not be used in temperatures lower than 5 °C.
Important!
• The appliance has been designed for indoor use.
• Voltage: This appliance must be connected to an
earthed socket with 220 – 240 V / 50Hz.
• The use of the appliance must meet the directives
of the country in which it is used. If you are not
sure whether the power socket is suitable, have
it checked and, where necessary, adapted by a

Installation
• Once you have switched on your appliance, the
BONECO dehumidifier protects your home from
the damaging effects of high humidity.
• Surplus moisture spreads through your house in the
same way as cooking smells. For this reason, the
dehumidifier should be place in a central and easily
accessible position, so that it can remove the moist
air from all areas within the house. A heated hall or
landing is an ideal place for the dehumidifier. If possible, the doors inside the house should be left open
to allow air circulation.
• If you have a special moisture problem in a particular
room, you can first place the dehumidifier there and
later place it in a more central position.
• When the dehumidifier is operating, outside doors and
windows should be kept closed so that the appliance
can operate effectively. Make sure that the appliance is
not situated directly next to a radiator or other source
of heat.
• When situating the BONECO dehumidifier, make sure
that the place chosen is level and that it is sufficiently
far from interior objects to allow air to circulate freely.
• Before moving the appliance, it should be switched off
and the water reservoir should be emptied.
Make sure that there is a distance of
0.2 metres between the appliance and
all flammable materials.

Maintenance
Before undertaking maintenance and cleaning,
always remove the plug from the socket.
Cleaning the appliance
Use a soft cloth to clean the appliance. Do not use any
chemical sprays, petrol, solvents, chemically treated cloths
or other damaging cleaning product. These could damage
the casing of the appliance.
Cleaning the washable filter
This dehumidifier is fitted with a washable filter. The filter
cleans the air of most pollutants and thus ensures a less
oppressive living environment. We advise you to check the
filter regularly (at least once a month and after storing the
appliance) and if necessary to clean it as follows:
• Pull out the filter holder
• Use a vacuum cleaner or carefully wash the filter.
If the filter is partially polluted, use warm water and a
mildly aggressive cleaning product. Rinse out the filter under running cold water. Make sure the filter is completely
dry before replacing it. Never expose the filter to sunlight
or other direct heat sources. This could result in the filter
and frame buckling.
Storage
If you do not intend to use the appliance for a
lengthy period and wish to store it, you should
take the following precautions:
1. Completely empty the water reservoir.
2. Roll up the electrical wire and place it in the
water reservoir.
3. Clean the air filter.
4. Store the appliance in a dry, cool place.

Emptying the water reservoir
When the water reservoir is full, the appliance automatically switches itself off and a signal is sounded, consisting
of 15 tones. LED [1] lights up and signals that the water
reservoir is full. The water reservoir should be emptied as
follows:
• Using both hands, push gently against the sides
of the reservoir and carefully pull it out.
• Pour away the water and carefully replace the
reservoir. The LED goes out.
Directions:
1. Do not remove the float from the water reservoir. The
sensor that measures the water level in the reservoir
will not work correctly without float. If that happens,
the reservoir could leak water.
2. If the water reservoir becomes dirty, you can clean
it with cold or lukewarm water. Do not use cleaning
or scouring products, chemically treated cloths, petrol,
thinner or other solvents, as these can scratch or
damage the reservoir which can lead to it leaking
water.
3. When replacing the water reservoir, push it firmly using
both hands into the correct position. If the reservoir is
not replaced correctly, the sensor will continue to show
«RESERVOIR FULL» and the dehumidifier cannot be
turned on.
Permanent water drainage
To allow the dehumidifier to operate with continuous water
drainage, the following measures should be taken (see
illustration):
1. Turn off the appliance and remove the plug from
the socket.
2. Open the hole for the water drainage pipe in the
water reservoir (by removing part A).
3. Push a water hose (outer diameter 14 mm, inner
diameter 10 mm) through the hole and connect the
hose to the water draining connection (part B).
4. Place the end of the hose in the drain. Make sure
the hose is not folded and is laying straight.
When using permanent drainage, the water
reservoir must remain in place.
