Continuous Dehumidifying Operation
For models with out built-in pump, continuous operation is activated by pressing the CONT. button on the control
panel. (See. Fig. 1).This allows the dehumidier to run
continuously at 35% RH (relative humidity) without cycling the compressor and fan on and off when the desired humidity set point is achieved. By continuously running
the fan and compressor, constant dehumidication occurs,
which achieves the maximum moisture removal from the air.
2
Filter
The check lter feature is a reminder to clean the Air Filter for more efcient operation. The Filter light (clean lter light)
will illuminate after 250 hours of operation to remind you to
clean the lter. After cleaning the lter, press the Filter pad
and the light will go off.

When the humidity has been reduced or quieter operation is preferred, set the fan speed to Normal. For models without pumps, the Turbo or Normal indicator lights will display for the corresponding fan speed. For models with built in pump, the Turbo indicator light will display when Turbo fan speed is selected. The Turbo indicator light will be off when the fan is in Normal mode. There is an audible difference between Turbo and Normal speeds.
