1.6.1 HOW DOES THE DEHUMIDIFIER WORK?
The dehumidifier, as shown in Figure 1, consists of a
small refrigerant system and a fan. The fan pulls
humid air from the room, across the cold evaporator
coil where the water drips off into a bucket or drain
hose.
1.6.2 LOCATION FOR THE DEHUMIDIFIER
1. In order for the unit to operate effectively, all doors,
windows and other openings should be closed.
Moisture-laden outdoor air will only add to the
dehumidifier's operating load.
2. Allow at least 12 inches of space on all sides of the
unit for good air circulation.
3. Install your dehumidifier on a floor, table, or shelf.
When installing the dehumidifier on a table or shelf,
make sure the table or shelf is strong enough to
support the weight of the dehumidifier with a full
bucket. Do not sit or stand on the dehumidifier.
NOTE: The height of a table or shelf might provide
a better position from which to handle the
bucket and help prevent icing of the coils
due to colder air near the floor (such as in a
basement).
Humidity Control
•The Humidity Control can be set anywhere between
Off and Max for normal operation. If you need more
dehumidification, turn the Humidity Control toward
Max. If you need less dehumidification, turn the
Humidity Control toward Off.
•Turn the Humidity Control to Off to stop the unit
manually.
Fan Speed
•If you want to control the speed of air flow, turn the
Fan Speed toward Low or High.
Auto Shut-Off
LAMP ON : Bucket is full.
LAMP OFF : Bucket isn't full.
•When the bucket is full, operation automatically shuts
down and a lamp also lights.

1.6 HOW TO OPERATE DEHUMIDIFIER
1.5 CONTROL

1.6.5 HUMIDISTAT
Humidistat maintains the constant relative humidity in the
room automatically to satisfy particular need.
(When the relative humidity in the room increases to the
selected level, the dehumidifier starts automatically.) Once
the relative humidity drops to the selected level, the
dehumidifier stops automatically.
When first using the dehumidifier, it is recommended, for
the first three or four days, to operate the unit with the
humidistat control set at the MAX. At this setting, the unit
will run continuously.
When the sweating has stopped and the dampness odors
have gone, it is preferable to select the humidistat position
that will best suit local conditions.
The relative humidity range it can control is from 20 % to
80%. (See Figure 3)
NOTE: The relative humidity at the number is the
approximate value.
1.6.6 DRIER ASSEMBLY
Dryer is used to prevent water from overflowing in all tubes
and H/E assembly-condenser assembly and evaporator
assembly-and an acid, water and bad material from heating
oil. Also, dryer is used to remove corrosion of the
components.
NOTE: When dryer is replaced, proper injection to
capillary is needed. On opening the dryer, it
should be welded instantly. The oxidization of
dryer inside and all tubes inside after welding
can be prevented.(For Model DH2510A)

1.6.3 SWITCH ASSEMBLY, MICRO
The micro switch assembly, which is located on the back of the unit, automatically shuts off the dehumidifier when the bucket is
full (note, the Auto Shut Off lights, to indicate bucket must be emptied). Once the bucket has been emptied and replaced, the
unit once again turns itself on.
NOTE: Before removing the bucket, turn the Humidity Control to Off.
1.6.4 CONTROL, DEFROST
The Defrost Control senses frost build-up on the evaporator coil and automatically shuts off the compressor. The fan continues
to run, drawing air across the coil and melting the frost. When the coil is defrosted, the compressor automatically restarts, and
dehumidifying resumes.
NOTE: Do not operate the dehumidifier at temperature below 65˚F(18˚C). If your dehumidifier runs when the
temperature and humidity conditions of room are low, frost can form in its evaporator coil. This interferes with
proper operation.
