• Unwind the cord completely. An incompletely unwound cord can lead to
overheating and cause a fire.
• Do not pull the plug from the socket with wet hands or by holding on to
the power cord.
• Do not use an extension cord, a multiway connector, or a continuously ad-
justable speed controller. This can cause overheating, fire, or electric shock.
• Connect the dehumidifier only to a single-phase socket with the supply
voltage as stated on the type plate.
• Always switch the dehumidifier off with the power key and always dis-
connect the plug from the power socket when the dehumidifier is not in
use, or when it is moved, handled or cleaned. Do not tug at the cord to
disconnect the plug. Do not disconnect the plug when the dehumidifier
is running. Always first switch the dehumidifier off with the power key.
• The dehumidifier functions optimally at a room temperature of between
56°F and 95°F (13°C and 35°C). Optimal dehumidifying performance is
only achievable in the higher temperature range (from 72°F / 22°C) and
with higher room humidity (from 70%). (The lowest working temperature
is 41°F / 5°C and relative humidity is 40%RH, the highest working tem-
perature is 104°F / 40°C and the relative humidity is 90%RH.)
• Do not use the dehumidifier anywhere near easily inflammable gases or
substances, near an open fire, or at a location where oil and water could
splash. Do not spray insecticides or similar substances onto the dehu-
midifier. Make sure that the dehumidifier is not exposed to direct sunlight.
Do not use the dehumidifier in a hothouse or near a bathtub, shower or
swimming pool. Do not put any hot or heavy objects on the dehumidifier.
• The air intake and air outflow vents must always be kept open during
dehumidification. Make sure that no objects can get into the air intake or
air outflow vents. This can lead to overheating, fire or electric shock. The
dehumidifier must not be installed behind curtains, drapes or other ob-
jects and obstacles that could impair the air circulation. A safety distance
of at least 20" / 50 cm from other objects must be maintained. In addition,
a safety distance of at least 25" / 60 cm from wet areas such as showers,
washbasins, sinks, bathtubs etc. must be maintained. A safety distance
of 50" / 120 cm from the water supply, e.g. a water tap, is necessary.
• When operating to dry clothes keep the clothing at least 20" / 50 cm away
from the unit and do not allow water to drip onto the unit.
• Do not remove the water tank while the dehumidifier is running. Drops of
remaining water could damage furniture and floor-coverings.
• Wait for 3 - 5 minutes after switching the dehumidifier off before you
switch it back on again.
• Do not dip the dehumidifier into water or any other liquids and do not pour
water or any other liquids onto the appliance or into the air intake and air
outflow vents.
• Clean the dehumidifier regularly, following the cleaning instructions.
• Empty the tank first before moving the dehumidifier.
• Always transport the dehumidifier in an upright position. Before using
the dehumidifier for the first time, leave it standing in an upright position
for 24 hours. Always stand the dehumidifier in an upright position imme-
diately after transporting the appliance, and wait for at least 60 minutes
