Place the appliance on a firm, flat level surface.
If continuous drainage is to be used, unscrew and remove the bung from the
drainage port (on the back of the appliance, half-way up, on the right-hand side),
and connect a drainage hose to the port. Use a hose with an internal diameter of
12mm (½"). Make sure that the hose runs downwards throughout its entire
length, and has no kinks. Otherwise the drainage will not work.
The bung can be stored in the bucket in case it is required at a later date. Make
sure that the bucket is fitted correctly into the housing.
•
Plug the mains lead into a 13 Amp mains socket.
•
If connecting via an extension lead, make sure that the lead is rated at 5
Amps, and that it is fully unwound.
•
Place the appliance on a firm flat level surface.
•
Switch the appliance on at the mains socket. Then press the power switch to
start operation.The appliance will wait for 3 minutes whilst the refrigerant
settles before starting to operate, this is to extend the life of the compressor.
• Using the + and ˜ buttons, set the required humidity level on the display. The
level can be set between 35% and 80% in 5% increments. The appliance will
remove humidity from the air whenever the humidity level is higher that the
set level.

After a delay of 5 seconds, the display changes to showing the present room
humidity level.

To select continuous operation, press the CONT. button. The appliance will
continuously remove humidity from the air regardless of the humidity level.
Press the CONT. button again to stop continuous operation.

Take particular care if selecting continuous operation when continuous
drainage is being used. It will lead to a continous reduction of humidity
levels; which, if the humidity becomes too low, may lead to the cracking of
delicate wooden items.
•
If operating at an ambient temperature below 10 °C, the internal heat
exchanger will drop below 0 °C, causing ice to form. If this happens, the
appliance will automatically defrost: when this happens P1 will be shown in
the display.
•
Unplug the appliance from the mains when not in use. (Do not disconnect
whilst still operating, press the power switch to turn the appliance OFF first)
•
Check the appliance regularly for damage and cease using it immediately if
any damage to the product, the cable or the mains plug is found.
•
The appliance operates best if it is in an enclosed area. Close all doors and
windows, and eliminate sources of additional humiditiy, such as cooking,
clothes drying. Cover fish tanks.
