TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SOLUTION
• Make sure the dehumidifier's plug is pushed completely into the outlet.
• Check the house fuse/circuit breaker box and replace the fuse or reset
the breaker.
• The dehumidifier automatically turns off when either condition occurs.
Change to a lower setting or empty the bucket and replace properly.
• The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to
operate.
• There is a protective time delay (up to 3 minutes) to prevent tripping of the
compressor overload. For this reason, the unit may not start normal
dehumidifying for 3 minutes after it is turned 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 the Choosing a Location section.
• See the Care and Cleaning section.
• For drier air, press the - pad and set to a lower percent value (%) or at CO
(continuous) for maximum dehumidification.
• Check that all doors, windows and other openings are securely closed.
• Install the dehumidifier away from the dryer. The dryer should be vented to
the outside.
• Moisture removal is best at higher room temperatures. Lower room
temperatures will reduce the moisture removal rate. Models are designed
to be operated at temperatures above 41°F (5°C).
• The capacity of your dehumidifier may not be adequate.
• Close all doors and windows to the outside.
• This is normal. Frost will usually disappear within 60 minutes. See the
Automatic Defrost section.
• This is normal. Wait approximately 3 minutes and set the fan as desired.
• This is normal.
• Check the hose connection. See the Removing Collected Water
section.
• Disconnect the hose if using the bucket to collect water. See the
Removing Collected Water section.
