DRAINAGE INSTALLATION

1. When the tank is at full capacity, the “FULL” light will power on.

2. An alarm will then sound to notify user. Press the power button to shut down the system.

3. To drain the water tank, open the front panel to access tank.

4. Grab tank handle and remove it horizontally.

5. After disposing of the water, replace tank, and close the front panel.

CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE

In extremely wet conditions, the tank may require frequent drainage. It can be set for continuous drainage by completing the following:

1. Open the front cover, remove tank, and dispose of water.

2. Rotate the drain pipe connector on the water tank. Use cutting tools to cut the side outlet, and then install the drain pipe connector to an outlet.

3. Install the included drain hose to the connector and direct the pipe to the desired area prior to operating the machine.

4. Clean the water tank, drain the hose and pipe connector, and shut the front panel.

5. When continuous drainage is not being used, switch over to water tank usage by using the sealing washer, without the hole, to stop the water outﬂow.

BUTTON FUNCTION

1. Press this button while screen light is on and unit will automatically enter a continuous mode. The screen will display the environmental humidity and

the compressor will turn on after the fan has run for 3 seconds. Press this button again, and the compressor will stop with the display screen showing “- -“. The unit will then enter a standby mode; the fan will run for another minute and stop.

2. Hold down this button until the light powers on, then press “MINUS” and “ADD” to set the start time. When the countdown is over, the fan

When the countdown is over, the fan and compressor will power off. Hold down this button for 3 seconds to view the current temperature. After 10 seconds, the display will return to the current humidity. Hold this button to show the current temperature.

3. The humidity can be increased by increments of 5% RH during normal mode. Hold this button for 1 second to increase the humidity.

4. The humidity can be decreased by increments of 5% RH during normal mode. Hold this button for 1 second to decrease the humidity.

increase and decrease increments as follows: 20%-25%-30%-35%-40%-45%-50%-55%-60%65%-70%-75%-80%-85%-90%

B. Environmental and machine set humidity will decide the

status of the compressor and fan. If the environmental humidity is ≥ the machine set humidity + 3%, the compressor and fan will begin operation. If the environmental humidity is < the machine set humidity + 3%, the compressor and fan will cease operation. Press the continue button for continuous mode or switch to normal dehumidiﬁcation mode to set the humidity manually.

5. During continuous mode, the humidity setting

will be unavailable. The continuous mode light will turn on and the screen will display the current humidity. Press this button to switch to normal mode where the humidity setting is available.

MAINTENANCE

1. Clean the machine with a soft, damp cloth.

2. Remove the louver on the front panel to gain ﬁlter access.

3. Remove ﬁlter mesh from unit.

4. Use a clean rag to absorb the surface dust on the ﬁlter mesh. If the ﬁlter is extremely dirty, use tap water to ﬂush it out. Fully dry the ﬁlter before replacing it back into the air inlet fence.

A clean ﬁlter will increase the unit’s overall efﬁciency.

MACHINE STORAGE

If unused for an extended period of time, please store the unit in the following manner:

1. Clean ﬁlter mesh.

ATTENTION: The internal evaporator must be dry prior to storage to avoid component damage and mold. Unplug the unit and place it in a dry, open area. Another drying method is to set the humidity point 2% higher than the ambient humidity to force the fan to dry the evaporator.

2. Store the power cord in the back of the unit.

3. Store in a clean, dry environment.
