DEFROSTING

  1. The defrosting device works automatically at an interval of approximately every 30 minutes for a duration of approximately 5 minutes when the coil temperature is tested to be <= minus 1oC. The dehumidifying function will stop during the defrosting operation. DO NOT disconnect the plug or turn off the unit during the defrosting operation. The defrosting led light (fig.4.7) will light up.

NOTE: This dehumidifier does not have a cooling function, it produces heat during the operation and room temperature will rise by 1°C to 4°C. The temperature gets higher while it is operated in a closet, or similar. Furthermore, room temperature will rise because doors and windows are closed and heat is produced from other appliances in the room and from sun radiation.

EMPTYING THE WATER COLLECTION TANK refer to fig.1

  1. During the dehumidifying operation, water is collected in the water collection tank. When the tank is full of water, the dehumidifier stops operating automatically and the warning buzzer beeps twice. The unit will not restart until the water collection tank has been emptied.
  2. Open the door and remove the water collection tank from the dehumidifier by pulling it gently outwards by holding the sides of the tank.
  3. Hold the tank by the handle and carry it carefully to an emptying point.
  4. Remove the plug at the bottom of the tank and slowly empty the water out of the tank.
  5. Replace the drain plug and refit the tank in the dehumidifier, making sure it is properly back in place as the unit will not restart if it is not fitted correctly.

CONTINUOUS DRAINING

  1. If there is a place suitable for draining, continuous draining can be carried out. The continuous operation enables the dehumidifying operation to continue uninterrupted. See Section 5.1.

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
  1. The dehumidifying capacity is lowered when the air cleaning filter becomes clogged.
  2. Open the front door of the unit.
  3. Lift up the filter element from the bottom and lift out of the holder.
  4. To dislodge the dust from the filter, use a vacuum cleaner or tap it lightly.
  5. If the filter is very dirty, wash it carefully in water with a neutral detergent, then rinse well with clean water and leave until dry.
  6. To refit the air filter locate the top of the element into the locating bracket at the top of the door and then locate the lower section into the lower bracket.
