For Your Safety
WARNING
For your safety and protection, this dehumidifier is equipped with a three-prong grounding
plug on the power cord. Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the round ground
prong from the plug.
Your dehumidifier must be plugged directly into a properly grounded and polarized
three-prong receptacle. lf the wall receptacle you intend to use will not accept a
three-prong plug, or if you are not sure the outlet is adequately grounded or protected
by a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified electrician install the proper outlet
according to the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances. Do not
use an extension cord or an adapter plug.
Never unplug the dehumidifier by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly
and pull straight out from the receptacle.
Do not pinch, bend, or knot the power cord.

Selecting a Location
IMPORTANT:
1. Dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective. Close all doors,
windows, and other outside openings to the room. The effectiveness of the dehumidifier
depends on the rate at which new moisture-laden air enters the room.
2. Place dehumidifier in a location that does not restrict the airflow of the air intake and air
outlet.
3. 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. lt may be necessary to install a second dehumidifier in the enclosed area for
satisfactory drying.
4. The dehumidifier must be installed on a level floor that will support it with a full bucket of
water.
5. There should be a minimum of 12 inches clearance around the dehumidifier. The unit will
produce heat while in operation and should not be operated in an enclosed small space like
a closet.
When the unit is started, the fan begins to pull moisture-laden air across the dehumidifying coils.
The coils condense or draw moisture from the air, and air flows through the air outlet louvers into
the room as dry, warm air. Moisture removed from air is collected in a bucket on the front of the
dehumidifier.
The unit is designed to operate between 41 °F (5 °C), and 89.6 °F (32 °C). The unit will not work
properly if the temperature is out of this temperature range, or the performance of the unit will
fall greatly.
The "Compressor" circuit has an automatic 3 minute time delayed start if the unit is turned off
and on quickly. This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping.
Make sure the tank is fitted correctly otherwise unit will not turn on.
Notes:
Display and Fan's conntors must be match the actual indicates.
