When first using the dehumidifier, operate the unit continuously 24 hours.

How the Dehumidifier Operates

Moist, humid air is drawn over a cold reingerated

dehumidifving coil. Moisture in the air condenses

on this coil and drains into a bucket (or through

the bucket into a hose and drain).

Dn', clean air is drawn through the condenser

where it is heated and dischaiged out the front

grille into the room.

It is normal for the surrounding air to become slightly

warmer as the dehumidifier operates.

This wanning effect further reduces the relative

humidirt of the sun oundina; air.

Choosing a Location

A dehumidifier operating in a basement \rill have

little or no effect in dning an adjacent enclosed

storage area, such as a closet, unless there is

adequate circulation of air in and out of the area.

■ Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level door

strong enough to support the unit with a full bucket

of water.

■ Allow at least 12-18 inches of airspace on all sides

of the unit for good air circulation.

■ Place the dehumidifier in an area where the

temperature will not fall below 65°F(18°Cj. The coils

can become covered with frost at temperatures

below 65°F, which may reduce performance.

■ Use the dehumidifier in cooking, laundry, bathing

and dishwashing areas that have excessive

moisture. NOTE: Place the dehumidifier away

from the clothes dryer.

■ Use the dehumidifier to prevent moisture damage

anywhere books or valuables are stored.

■ Use the dehumidifier in a basement to help prevent

moisture damage.

■ The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed

area to be most effective.

■ Close all doors, windows and other outside openings

to the room.

YES NO

NOTE: The dehumidifier has rollers to aid placement,

but it should only be rolled on smooth, flat surfaces.

Do not attempt to roll the dehumidifier on carpet or

over objects.

Automatic Defrost

When the dehumidifier control senses frost

buildup on the evaporator coil, it will automatically

shut off the compressor. The fan will continue

to run to draw air across the coil and melt the frost.

When the coil is defrosted, the compressor will

automaticallv restart and dehumidifvinG; will resume.
