SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT CAUTIONS FOR USING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, injury, or damage to the
dehumidifiers, these safety precautions must be followed:
Safety
• Do not place the power cord or dehumidifi-
er unit near a heater.
• Do not use an electrical outlet near flam-
mable or combustible materials such as gasoline, propane, paint thinners, etc.
• Do not disassemble or modify dehumidifier
parts or components. It may cause electric shock and failure.
Plug in the power cord properly.
Do not turn the unit on and off by inserting
or pulling out the power plug.
Do not damage the power cord or use an unspecified power cord.
Do not modify power cord length.
Do not share the outlet with another appli-
ance.
Always plug into a grounded outlet. Not grounding unit may cause electrical shock.
Unplug the unit if it emits strange sounds,
odors, or smoke.
Do not use an electrical outlet if it is loose or damaged.
Do not operate or plug in unit with wet hands or in a wet environment.
Ventilate area before operating dehumidifi­er. Check for the presence of natural gas
or the buildup of other combustible vapors.
Do not clean the dehumidifier with water. Water may enter the unit and degrade the insulation resulting in an electrical shock.
If water enters the product, turn off the de­humidifier's power switch, then unplug the unit. Do not plug in unit until it has been inspected by an authorized repair service.
Because the fan rotates at high speed dur­ing operation, always unplug dehumidifier before attempting any recommended maintenance or cleaning.
Do not block the inlet or outlet. It may cause unit to fail or to operate inefficiently.
• Do not remove plug from outlet by pulling
on the cord.
• When not in use, turning the unit off will
save energy. Unplug the dehumidifier when not using for long periods of time.
• When removing the filter, be aware that
some metal parts may have sharp edges and may cause injury.
• Do not use the water collected in the
bucket for drinking purposes. It is not sanitary and could cause illness.
• Do not allow children to play with this
product.
Tips
• Make sure the dehumidifier is the correct
size for the area you want to dehumidify. It is not designed to dehumidify the entire house.
• For proper operation, the dehumidifier
should only be placed on a level floor.
• Close all doors, windows and other
openings to the room. The dehumidifier must operate in an enclosed area to be effective.
• To clean, use a soft cloth; do not use
wax, thinners, or strong detergents as they may change the color of the unit or cause surface damage.
• Be sure to replace the bucket properly
after emptying to prevent water from col­lecting on the floor causing damage to some types of flooring.
• Do not put a pet or house plant where it
will be exposed to direct air flow. This could injure the pet or plant.
• Operation without filter will cause unit
failure. Insert the filter securely. Clean it every two weeks. (See Care and Mainte­nance section in this manual on page
13).

Dehumidifier Facts
RECOMMENDED HUMIDITY LEVELS ACCORDING TO ENERGY STAR
Spring/Summer: 30% - 50%
Fall/Winter: 30% - 40%
WARM AIR EXHAUST IS NORMAL
During operation your dehumidifier will exhaust warm air from the side of the unit. This is normal operation.
EMPTYING THE BUCKET
The more moisture your dehumidifier removes from the air, the more often you may have to empty the bucket (unless you are using the continuous drainage option). The number of times the bucket will be emptied depends on the dehu­midifier model.
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, the 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 remove the Styrofoam from the float.
