Care and Maintenance
CLEANING
1. Clean the grill and case
Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or abrasives. Do not splash water directly onto the
main unit; doing so may cause an electric shock, cause the insulation to deteriorate, or cause the unit
to rust. Use a vacuum attachment or brush to clean the air intake and outlet grills.
2. Clean the bucket
Clean the water bucket every few weeks to prevent growth of mold, mildew and bacteria. Partially fi ll
the bucket with clean water and add a small amount of mild detergent. Swish it around in the bucket,
empty and rinse.
Note: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the bucket. After cleaning, the bucket must be placed and
properly positioned for the dehumidifi er to operate.
3. Clean the air fi lter
Remove and clean the fi lter every few weeks based on normal operating conditions.
