BEFORE USING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER
Please read this manual carefully. It contains instructions to help you use, maintain, and get the most use out of your dehumidifier.
Electrical Safety
Grounding
This dehumidifier must be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This dehumidifier has a power cord with a grounding wire and a grounded 3-prong plug.
ONLY PLUG INTO AN OUTLET THAT IS PROPERLY INSTALLED AND GROUNDED.
DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
W A R N I N G
Improper use of the grounding plug can
result in the risk of an electric shock, injury,
fire, or death. Call a qualified electrician if you do
not understand the grounding instructions, or if
you are not sure if the dehumidifier is properly
grounded. If the wall outlet is not grounded,
please contact a professional electrician to have
it replaced with a properly grounded outlet.
Power Supply Cord Wiring Requirements
115 Volt (103.5 min. – 126.5 max)
15 amp time-delay fuse or circuit breaker
Adapter plug is not recommended… however…
Since most 2-prong outlets are not grounded, we strongly advise against using an adapter plug.
HOWEVER, a temporary connection may be made where local codes permit if the 2-prong wall outlet is properly grounded.
FOR SAFETY REASONS, make sure the larger prong of the adapter goes into the large slot.
FOR PROPER GROUNDING
Ground the adapter to the outlet by using the outlet cover screw to secure the ground terminal to the outlet box.
Be absolutely certain that the outlet is grounded through the house wiring. DO NOT USE the dehumidifier until a proper ground has been made.
Extension Cord
If an extension cord is required to reach the nearest wall receptacle, use only a UL-listed, 3-wire, grounding type, 16 AWG, 15A, 125V appliance extension cord.
NO OTHER EXTENSION CORD IS PERMITTED.

PROPER USE & CARE
It is normal for the surrounding air to become slightly warmer as the dehumidifier operates. This warming effect further reduces the relative humidity of the surrounding air.
THERE ARE TWO WAYS TO REMOVE WATER FROM THE BUCKET:
1. Empty the bucket manually
When the water bucket is full, the red indicator light ”BUCKET FULL” will go on.
1.YOU MUST turn the POWER off.
2.Wait a few minutes to allow the water to stop dripping.
3.Use both side handles to lift and remove the bucket.
4.Empty water through opening into a sink or tub.
5.Reinstall bucket.
IMPORTANT
Make sure the drain cap is tightened before operating the unit.
2. Attach a standard garden hose

PROPER USE & CARE
•Place the dehumidifier in a location that does not restrict airflow into the rear coil or out of the front grille.
•The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective. Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.
•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.
•When the dehumidifier stops, wait at least 3 minutes before restarting.
PROPER CLEANING
•Before cleaning, turn the dehumidifier off and remove the plug from the wall outlet. Use water and a mild detergent to clean the inlet and outlet grilles. DO NOT use bleach or abrasives.
•The air filter is on the front of the dehumidifier. It should be checked at least every 2 to 3 weeks to see if it needs cleaning.
•When the unit is turned on for the first time, the "Bucket Full" light may be lit. If you remove and replace the bucket, the light will shut off.
W A R N I N G
You can be killed or seriously injured if you do not follow the instructions in this manual.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience operational problems, please follow these troubleshooting suggestions before calling Customer Service. If these suggestions fail to solve the problem,
call Customer Service toll free at 1-877-337-3639.
Unit not operating
•Check to see if the grounded 3-prong plug is pushed completely into the outlet.
•The fuse may be blown or the circuit has been tripped. Check the house fuse/circuit breaker. Replace fuse or reset breaker as needed.
•The bucket may be full. The dehumidifier automatically turns off when this occurs. The drain bucket needs to be emptied.
•If the bucket is not full, it may be positioned improperly. Remove and reinstall so that it fits all the way into the dehumidifier.
•When the ambient temperature is above 112°F or below 32°F, the unit will shut off. This protects the compressor. Wait 3 minutes and then restart.
Dehumidifier is icing up during initial stage of operation.
•This is normal for a dehumidifier. Frost will usually disappear within 60 minutes unless the temperature is below 60°F.
Unsatisfactory dehumidification
•When first installed, allow at least 3 or 4 days to remove the moisture from the room to maintain the desired dryness.
•Area to be dehumidified may be too large for your model. Check with your dealer.
•The controls may not be set correctly. Adjust controls according to instructions.
•Doors and windows may not be closed. Check that all doors, windows and other openings are closed tightly.
•Clothes dryer may be in operation in the same room. Install the dehumidifier away from the moisture-laden air generated by the dryer. Dryer should be vented to the outside.
•Please note that when room temperature is below 60°F, there might be ice forming on the coils. The unit will go into Auto-Defrost mode to remove the ice before resuming its dehumidification. The defrost operation will reduce the unit’s ability for moisture removal.
Airflow is restricted
•Make sure there are no curtains, blinds or furniture blocking the front or back of the dehumidifier.
•Clean the filter. It may be clogged.
NOTE:
After prolonged usage, the condenser coils behind the filter may develop a buildup of residue. Unless cleaned regularly with a soft brush, this residue will harden and may require special cleaning methods by a refrigeration/air conditioning professional.
