WATER TANK
OPERATION
The water tank holds accumulated condensed water and by
means of a safety switch, controls both the water level and
operation of the dehumidifi cation process- i.e. When the wa-
ter tank is full and/or accidentally displaced inside the cabinet,
the fl oat switch actuator (inside the tank) breaks contact with
the safety switch. This condition results in the immediate shut
down of the compressor and fan motor system, preventing
moisture from being condensed.
DEHUMIDIFYING
DEHUMIDIFYING is a means of removing moisture from the air. A dehumidifi er will help to protect your home and valued
possessions from damage (swelling) caused by moisture in the air. Essentially a dehumidifi er removes moisture from air
as moist air passes over a dehumidifying (evaporator) coil. Moisture is condensed on the evaporator coil, drained, and
collected inside an internal (removable) water tank located at the front of the unit. The exhausted air being returned into
the room environment is elevated several degrees causing the surrounding air temperature to increase (slightly). This
process also contributes to lowering the relative humidity of the surrounding air.
DEHUMIDIFYING
MODE
INSTRUCTIONS
When the unit is fi rst connected to the electrical outlet, the (green) power light will not light until the "on/off" button is
pressed. When the "on/off" button is pressed, the power light turns on and the dehumidifi er automatically defaults to:
Display: Current Ambient Room Humidity (RH%)
Humidity Setting:60% RH
Fan Speed: High
IMPORTANT NOTE: Depending on humidity conditions of the surrounding environment, the dehumidifi er may not start
automatically under the default setting (this is an indication that the humidity level of the surrounding environment is lower
than the "default" setting of 60% RH). Therefore, it may be necessary to scroll through each of the different dehumidifi er
settings 35% - 80% until the "humidstat" (sensor) recognizes conditions that will allow the unit to operate.
DEHUMIDIFYING MODE SELECTION:
1) The unit enters dehumidify mode when the ON/OFF button is pressed.
2a) Press the + / - buttons to select a desired RH operating value (35% -85%)
OR
2b) Press the CONTINUOUS button. When CONTINUOUS mode is selected, the humidistat (sensor) will be by-passed
and the compressor will operate non-stop regardless of humidity conditions.
FAN SPEED SELECTION:
3) You can choose a fan speed (normal/turbo) using the keypad. The speed you select is identifi ed by the (illuminated)
indicator light located directly above the selection made.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT:
Never tamper with or attempt to defeat the
water level (safety) fl oat switch system. Proper
installation of the water tank is crucial to
maintaining reliable dehumidifi er operation.
