SOCIABLE REMARK
When using this dehumidifier in the European countries, the following information
must be followed:
DISPOSAL: Do not dispose this product as unsorted municipal waste. Collection
of such waste separately for special treatment is necessary.
It is prohibited to dispose of this appliance in domestic household waste.
For disposal, there are several possibilities:
A) The municipality has established collection systems, where electronic waste can
be disposed of at least free of charge to the user.
B) When buying a new product, the retailer will take back the old product at least
free of charge.
C) The manufacture will take back the old appliance for disposal at least free of
charge to the user.
D) As old products contain valuable resources, they can be sold to scrap metal
dealers.
Wild disposal of waste in forests and landscapes endangers your health when
hazardous substances leak into the ground-water and find their way into the food
chain.

OPERATING THE UNIT
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 circulation of air in and out of the area.
Do not use outdoors.
This dehumidifer is intended for indoor residential
applications only. This dehumidifier should not be used
for commercial or industrial applications.
Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor strong
enough to support the unit with a full bucket of water.
Allow at least 20cm 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 5 C(41 F). The coils can become covered with
frost at temperatures below 5 C(41 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.

Casters(Install at four points on the bottom
of unit)
Casters can only move laterally.
Do not force casters to move over carpet,
nor move the unit with water in the bucket.
(The unit may tip over and spill water.)
NOTE:Casters is optional,some models without.

When using the unit
When first using the dehumidifier, operate the unit continuously 24 hours.
This unit is designed to operate with a working environment between 5C(41 F) and 35 C(95 F).
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 bucket is correctly fitted otherwise the unit will not operate properly.

Removing the collected water
There are two ways to remove collected water.
1. Use the bucket
When the bucket is full, the unit will automatically stop
running and display P2 , the Full indicator light will flash.
Slowly pull out the bucket. Grip the left and right handles
securely, and carefully pull out straight so water does
not spill. Do not put the tank on the floor because the
bottom of the bucket is uneven. Otherwise the bucket
will fall down and cause the water to spill (see Fig.5 & 6).
Throw away the water and replace the bucket. The
bucket must be in place and securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate.
The machine will re-start when the bucket is restored
in its correct position.
NOTES:
When you remove the bucket, do not touch any parts
inside of the unit. Doing so may damage the product.
Be sure to push the bucket gently all the way into the
unit. Banging the bucket against anything or failing to
push it in securely may cause the unit not to operate.
2. Continuous draining
Water can be automatically emptied into a floor
drain by attaching the unit with a water hose
(not included).
Remove the water bucket.
Cut off the plastic cover located at drain hose
outlet by a scissor,then insert the water hose
(ID=O13.5mm) into the drain outlet (see Fig.7) and
securely press it onto the connector of the unit
(see Fig.8).
Lead the water hose to the floor drain or a suitable
drainage facility.The drainage facility should be lower
than the drain outlet of the unit.
Make sure the connection of the water hose and the
connector is tight and do not let the water leak.
Be sure to run the water hose sloping downward and let
the water flow out smoothly.Do not install the water
hose as shown Fig.9a and Fig.9b.
Replace the bucket in the unit. The bucket must be in
place and securely seated.
NOTE: When the continuous drain feature is not being
used, remove the drain hose from the outlet.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Care and cleaning of the dehumidifier
Turn the dehumidifier off and remove the plug
from the wall outlet before cleaning.
1. Clean the Grille and Case
Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach
or abrasives.
Do not splash water directly onto the main unit. Doing
so may cause an electrical shock, cause the insulation
to deteriorate, or cause the unit to rust.
The air intake and outlet grilles get soiled easily, so use
a vacuum attachment or brush to clean.
2. Clean the bucket
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 bucket.
After clean, the bucket must be in place and securely
seated for the dehumidifier to operate.
3. Clean the air filter
The air filter behind the front grille should be
checked and cleaned at least every 30 days
or more often if necessary.
NOTE: DO NOT RINSE OR PUT THE FILTER
IN AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.
To remove:
Grip the tab on the filter and pull it upward, then
pull it out as shown in Fig.9a.
Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse and
let the filter dry before replacing it. Do not clean the
filter in a dishwasher.
To attach:
Insert the air filter into the unit as shown in Fig.9b.
CAUTION:
DO NOT operate the dehumidifier without a filter
because dirt and lint will clog it and reduce
performance.
