Features
Powerful dehumidifying capability
The dehumidifier powerfully removes excess
moisture from the air creating a drier,healthier
home environment.
Quiet operation
For overnight operation,the QUIET mode may
be selected.
Excellent drying laundry function
The dehumidifier dries laundry quickly. This can
prevent laundry and furniture from becoming damp
and musty in a rainy season.
Drainage tank with a large capacity
Large 6 litre capacity water tank means the
dehumidifier requires emptying less often.
Using refrigerant for protecting environment
The dehumidifier uses no CFC refrigerant
therefore protecting the environment.
Saving energy
The power consumption is low.
SAVE
Modern Design
The dehumidifier is compact with a streamlined
appearance and modern design.
The castors at the bottom allow easy mobility.

How dehumidifying works
If you pour cold water into a cup, the air around the cup is cooled, and drops of water
form on the surface of the cup. The dehumidifier takes advantage of this phenomenon to
remove moisture.

Operation
1.Plug the power supply plug into the outlet
230-240V AC
2.Open the louver by hand
3.Switch the operation mode
Use single phase 220V ~ 240V AC power supply.
Wipe dust off of the power supply plug and insert the plug firmly,
all the way to the rubber section, if there is a dust on the plug, or
the plug is not fully inserted in the outlet, electrical shock and/or
fire may result.
Never scratch, cut, or damage the power supply cord.
Power indicator lamp lights to indicate that power is on.
Before operation please check and make sure the louver has been
opened to ensure adequate air flow.
Set louvre to desired angle (when room temperature is above

Operation
Draining the water
The drainage tank is full
When the drainage tank becomes full (approx, 6 Litres), the full indicator lights to alert the user, and the
unit turns off automatically. Empty the water from the tank and discard it.
Drainage steps Notation for drainage
1. Remove the drainage tank
Lightly pressing on the sides of the tank with
both hands, pull it gently out.
T ake hold of the handle, and then remove the tank.
2. Discard the water
Guard
Drain water
from this point
Do not remove the bubble packing from the float
on the unit. The float on the unit will no longer be
able to detect without the bubble packing when the
water level is full, and water may leak from the
tank.
If the drainage tank is dirty, wash it with cold or
lukewarm water. Do not use detergent, scouring
pads, chemically treated cloths, or other cleaning
solutions as it may damage the drainage tank.
When replacing the drainage tank, press the tank
firmly into place with both hands. If the tank is not
positioned properly, the “ Tank Full” sensor will
activate, and the dehumidifier will not operate.
Check to make sure the guards are firmly attached
to the tank. If they are not, the drainage tank will
be harder to remove.
3. Place the drainage tank back in it’s
compartment.
If the drainage tank is removed while the unit is in
operation, or immediately after operation has
stopped, water which is still in the cooling unit may
drip out on the base plate. Wait at least 30 minutes
before removing the drainage tank.(If water has
dripped, wipe it up.)

Draining the water
Continuous drainage of water
The unit has an optional continuous drainage port. Water can be continually drained by connecting a rubber
hose (15mm I.D), to this drainage port.When setting up the dehumidifier for continuous drainage, always
turn the unit off and unplug the supply plug.
1. Disconnect the drainage tank and open the
continuous drainage port.
Use sidecutters or similar tool to cut away the continuous
drainage port in the side of the main unit.
2. Push the hose into the continuous drainage port
Pass a rubber hose (15mm I.D) through the continuous
drainage port, and press it firmly into the drainage port
in the main unit, making sure water does not leak.
The height of drain piping should always be lower than the
height of the drainage port.
Make sure there are no kinks or obstructions in the rubber
hose which may prevent the water draining out.
3.Return the drainage tank to its original position
Check the hose periodically to make sure it is still connected
and has not been obstructed.
Moving the dehumidifier (using castors)
1.Drain the water.
2.Lift up the handle.
3.Move the unit.
Ensure the dehumidifier has adequate clearance
between the unit and nearby walls as shown
below.
Note:
1.If the floor is made of a material that scratches easily, or if the floor is uneven, lift up the unit and move
it. Also avoid rolling the unit on castors if the floor has shagpile carpet.
2.Tilt it within range of 20 to 30 degrees, as a rule (if you tip it too far, you may scratch the floor or water
may leak.)
3.Be careful that the power supply cord doesn't get pinched under the unit.

e closets, which will prevent air circulation.
10.
Install the external drain piping on a downhill gradient to ensure that condensed water can be drained
continuously.

Troubleshooting
The following symptoms do not indicate a breakdown
Symptom
Noise level increases during use.
The humidity does not drop.
Very little dehumidifying takes place, or
none at all.
When the unit is first used, the
discharged air smells musty.
The unit echoes.
Reason
The sound level increases when the compressor
turns on.
Is the room too big for the unit?
Are windows or doors opened and closed frequently? Is
there any item in the room which produces steam?
This happens if the temperature and/or humidity of the room
is low.
Because the temperature of the heat exchanger rises
abruptly, an unusual or musty odor may be produced for a
moment.
If the unit is used in a room with wood flooring or in a
small room, it may echo.
When the unit is turned on,or a different
mode is selected a strange noise is heard
from the main unit.
Fluid or a white film is left in the
drainage tank.
The unit will only run in
regardlless of any other mode being
selected.
The fan is running and the compressor
does not work.
Hi”mode,
The refrigerant may make some noise until circulation
stabilizes.
This is water or steam residue left from dehumification
testing at the factory.This does not indicate a problem.
