Operating instructions
Dehumidifier 16 l
Item no. 1227387

Intended use

An air humidity of 65% constitutes the upper limit at which people still feel comfortable.
Humidity has a specific relation to temperature. In general, a relative humidity of 35 -
65% at 21 °C is ideal for physical comfort. The dehumidifier is used to dehumidify the
air of privately used rooms (e.g. living rooms, bedrooms, storage rooms and cellars). It
is not intended to be used for any other means.
The dehumidifier monitors the relative humidity of the indrawn room air. Moisture in
the air condenses on the cooling elements as water and is discharged into the water
tank. Slightly warmer dry air is then fed back into the room. When the activated carbon
filter is used, odours as well as oil and other hydrocarbons are filtered from the air.
The product is not intended for commercial, mechanical or industrial use. No warranty
will be provided if the appliance is used in a commercial, mechanical or industrial
setting.
It is intended for indoor use only. Do not use it outdoors. Contact with moisture, e.g. in
bathrooms, must be avoided under all circumstances.
For safety and approval purposes (CE), you must not rebuild and/or modify this product.
If you use the product for purposes other than those described above, the product may
be damaged. In addition, improper use can cause hazards such as short circuiting,
fire, electric shock etc. Read the instructions carefully and keep them. Make this
product available to third parties only together with its operating instructions.
