PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE OPERATING DEHUMIDIFIER
Always take these basic precautions:
This dehumidifier must be properly installed and

Never operate this dehumidifier in an area that is
likely to accumulate standing water. If this situation
develops, disconnect the power supply before
touching, stepping into, or attempting to clean up
the water.
Repair and replace immediately all electric service
cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. DO NOT use a power cord that shows signs
of damage anywhere along its length, at the plug,
or where it is connected to the appliance.
Always unplug dehumidifier before servicing or
moving the unit.

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.
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.
WARNING
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.
DO NOT, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the third (ground) prong from the power cord.

PROPER USE & CARE
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
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:

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.
WARNING
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.
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.
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.
