Solutions
• Make sure the dehumidifier's plug is pushed completely into the outlet.
• The dehumidifier automatically turns off when either condition occurs:
Change to a lower setting
o
Empty the water bucket and replace properly.
o
The bucket must be in place and securely seated for operation.
•
• There is a protective time delay (up to 3 minutes) to prevent the overload of
the compressor. For this reason, the unit may not start normal
dehumidification for 3 minutes after it is powered back on.
• When first installed, allow at least 24 hours to maintain the desired dryness.
• Make sure there are no curtains, blinds, or furniture blocking the front or back
of the dehumidifier. See CHOOSING A LOCATION (Page 10).
See CLEAN FILTER (Page 7).
•
For drier air, lower the percent humidity desired in the room, or set the
•
dehumidifier to continuous mode for maximum dehumidification.
• Check that all doors, windows, and other openings are securely closed.
• Install the dehumidifier away from a clothes dryer.
• Moisture removal is best at high room temperatures. Lower room
temperatures will reduce the moisture removal rate. This model is designed to
operate at temperatures above 41˚F (5˚C).
• The capacity of your dehumidifier may not be adequate for the room size.
• Close all doors and windows to the outside.
• Frost will usually disappear within 60 minutes.
• Wait approximately 3 minutes and set the fan speed at the desired level.
• Check the hose connection. See CONTINUOUS MODE - GARDEN HOSE
INSTALLATION (Page 11).
Disconnect the hose if using the bucket or place the hose near a drain.
