LESS MOISTURE BEING REMOVED OVER TIME IS A GOOD THING!
Using a dehumidifier will cause your area to maintain a more comfortable humidity level. Over time, this humidity level will become more and more stable. Due to the stable humidity level in the area, t dehumidifier will need to remove less and less moisture over time.
Please do not be concerned if the dehumidifier is removing less moisture from the air or the bucket is taking longer to fill up. This is a direct result of your dehumidifier creating a more stable humidity level in your area.

DON’T REMOVE THE STYROFOAM IN THE BUCKET!
All Soleus Air dehumidifiers are equipped with a reliable Styrofoam float system. The Styrofoam located in­side the float in the bucket is essential to the bucket full system working properly. Please do not r Styrofoam from the float.

This dehumidifier is intended for indoor residential applications only. This unit should not be used for commercial or indust r i al applicat i ons
Place the dehumidifier on a smooth , level floor surface that is strong enough to support the unit with a full bucket of water.
Place the dehumidifier in an area where the temperature will not fall below 41°F. The coils can become covered with frost at temperatures below 41°F, which may
reduce performance
Use the dehumidifier in cooking, laundry, bathing and dishwashing areas that have excessive moisture. NOTE: Place the dehumidifier away from a clothes dryer.
Use the dehumidifier 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.
AUTOMATIC DEFROST
When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor will cycle off and the fan will continue to run un til the frost disappears. When the coils is completely defrosted, the compressor or fan (depending on the model) will automatically restart and dehumidification will resume.
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE HOSE
Water can be automatically emptied by attaching a hose to the continuous drainage port on the side of the dehumidifier. This will allow the unit to run continuously (depending on the selected humidity level) without having to empty the water bucket. To drain, simply attach a standard garden hose (not included). The thread standard for garden hoses in the US and its territories is known as
GHT or "garden hose thread" which has an outer diameter of 1 1/16 inches (1.0625 inches or 27.0 mm) and a pitch of 11.5 TPI.
Remove the bucket from the front of the unit.
Open the drain cover on the side of the dehumidifier.
Thread a garden hose (not supplied) onto the nozzle, cut to length and lead to the floor drain.
Replace the bucket in the dehumidifier.
NOTE: The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.
ATTENTION: When using continuous drainage option, place dehumidifier on a level surface and make sure garden hose
is clear of any obstructions and is directed downward. Press down drain door so it rests on top of the hose. Placing dehumidifier on an uneven surface or improper hose installation may result in water filling up the bucket and causing the unit to shut off. Empty water bucket if shut off occurs, then check dehumidifier
location and hose for proper setup.
