addition, we ask that you exercise
a degree of care and adhere to the

following precautions.

IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USE AND SAVE
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

• Carefully read all instructions
before operation and save for
future reference.

• Remove and safely discard
any packaging material and
promotional labels before
using the dehumidifier for the
first time.

• To eliminate a choking hazard
for young children, remove and
safely discard the protective
cover fitted to the power plug
of this dehumidifier.

• When unpacking the
dehumidifier, check to see you
have received all the items
listed in the parts list before
discarding the packaging.

• The dehumidifier is intended
for household use only and not
for commercial or industrial
use. Do not use outdoors.

• Always ensure the
dehumidifier is properly
assembled before use.
Follow the instructions
provided in this book.

• Do not place the dehumidifier
near the edge of a bench or
table during operation.
Ensure the surface is level,
clean and free of water.

• Do not run the power cord
under carpeting or cover the
cord with rugs, runners or the
like. Arrange the cord away
from traffic areas and where
it will not be tripped over.

• Do not route the power cord
under furniture or appliances.

• To protect against electrical
hazards, do not immerse any
part of the dehumidifier in
water or other liquids.
Do not use the dehumidifier in
the immediate surroundings
of a bath, shower or swimming
pool.

• Water in the water tank is
not suitable for drinking.
Do not drink this water, and do
not serve to animals or use to
water plants. When you empty
the water tank, pour the water
down a drain.

• Always turn off and unplug
the dehumidifier before
moving, removing the water
tank, changing filters, cleaning
or whenever the dehumidifier
is not in use.

• Do not unplug the
dehumidifier by pulling on
the cord.

• Never insert fingers, pencils
or any other objects through
the guards whenever the
power plug is connected,
and in particular, when the
dehumidifier is switched on.

• Do not operate the
dehumidifier with a
damaged cord or plug, or
if the dehumidifier has
been dropped or damaged
in any manner. Return the
dehumidifier to your nearest
Breville service centre for

examination, electrical
or mechanical adjustment
or repair.

• Do not use the dehumidifier
with an external timer,
programmer or any other
device that switches the
dehumidifier on automatically
since a fire risk may exist if the
dehumidifier is covered
or positioned incorrectly.

• Do not place anything on
top of the dehumidifier when
assembled, when in use and
when stored.

• Never block the air openings,
grilles and outlets, or place on
a soft surface such as a bed or
sofa as this could cause the
unit to tip over, blocking the
air inlet or outlet.

• Do not attempt to repair
or adjust any electrical or
mechanical functions on this
unit. Doing so will void your
warranty. The inside of the
unit contains no user
serviceable parts. All servicing
should be performed by
qualified personnel only.

• If the dehumidifier ever tips or
falls over when the water tank
is full, immediately unplug the
power cord. Ensure the unit
is dried thoroughly before
resuming operation.

• Keep the dehumidifier and
dust filters clean. Follow the
