INTRODUCTION
How it Works
When the dehumidifier is started, the fan begins to pull moisture -laden air across the dehumidifying coils.
The coils condense or draw moisture from the air, and air flows through the top louver into the room as dry,
warm air. Moisture removed from air is collected in a drain bucket on the front of the dehumidifier.
The appliance is designed to operate between 41°F (5°C), and 96°F (35°C). The "Compressor" circuit has
an automatic 3 minute time delayed start if the appliance is turned off and on quickly. This prevents over-
heating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. Make sure the drain bucket is fitted correctly
otherwise appliance will not turn on.
