• This unit is designed to operate with a working environment between 5 ºC(41 ºF) and 35 ºC(95 ºF).
• If the unit has been switched off and needs to be switched on again quickly, allow approximately
three minutes for the correct operation to resume.
• Do not connect the dehumidifier to a multiple socket outlet, which is also being used for other electrical appliances.
• Select a suitable location, making sure you have easy access to an electrical outlet.
• Plug the unit into a 115V~ 60Hz/220~240V 50Hz (Refer to the nameplate located on the side/rear of the unit ) electrical
socket-outlet with earth connection.
• Make sure the water bucket is correctly fitted otherwise the unit will not operate properly.

Positioning the unit
Do not use outdoors.
This dehumidifer is intended for indoor residential
applications only. This dehumidifier should not be used
for commercial or industrial applications.
Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor strong
enough to support the unit with a full bucket of water.
Allow at least 20cm of air space on all sides of the unit
for good air circulation.
Place the unit in an area where the temperature will not
fall below 5 ºC(41 ºF). The coils can become covered with
frost at temperatures below 5 ºC(41 ºF), which may reduce
performance.
Place the unit away fromthe clothes dryer, heater or radiator.
Use the unit anywhere books or valuables are stored to
prevent moisture damage.
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.

Removing the collected water
There are two ways to remove collected water.
1. Use the bucket
• When the bucket is full, the unit will automatically
stop running, and the Full indicator light will flash.
• Slowly pull out the bucket. Grip the left and right
handles securely, and carefully pull out straight so the
water does not spill. Do not put the bucket on the floor
because the bottomof the bucket is uneven.
Doing so will cause the bucket to fall and the water to spill.
• Throw away the water from the water outlet (See Fig.7)
and replace the bucket. The bucket must be in place
and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.
• The machine will re-start when the bucket is restored
in its correct position.
NOTES:
When you remove the bucket, do not touch any parts
inside of the unit. Doing so may damage the product.
Be sure to push the bucket gently all the way into the
unit. Banging the bucket against anything or failing to
push it in securely may cause the unit not to operate.
2. Continuous draining
Water can be automatically emptied into a floor
drain by attaching the unit with a water hose
( Φ16.5*13.5mm) (not included).
Remove the rubber plug fromthe back of the unit and store
it in a safe location.
Insert the water hose into the unit from the drain outlet in the
back of the unit as shown in Fig.8. Attach the water hose to
the drain hose outlet of the unit. Make sure the connection
of the water hose and the drain hose outlet of the unit is tight
and does not let the water leak.
Then lead the water hose to the floor drain or a suitable
drainage facility.The drainage facilify should be lower than the
drain outlet of the unit.
Be sure to run the water hose sloping downward allowing the
water to flow out smoothly. Do not install the water hose as
shown in Fig.9a and Fig.9b.
NOTE: When the continuous drain feature is not
being used, remove the drain hose fromthe outlet
and attach the rubber plug back into the drain outlet.

4. When not using the unit for long time periods
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Turn the dehumidifier off and remove the plug
fromthe wall outlet before cleaning.
1. Clean the Grille and Case
Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach
or abrasives.
Do not splash water directly onto the main unit. Doing
so may cause an electrical shock, cause the insulation
to deteriorate, or cause the unit to rust.
The air intake and outlet grilles get soiled easily, so use
a vacuumattachment or brush to clean.
2. Clean the bucket
Every few weeks, clean the bucket to prevent
growth of mold, mildew and bacteria. Partially
fill the bucket with clean water and add a little
mild detergent. Swish it around in the bucket,
empty and rinse.
NOTE: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the
bucket. After cleaning, the bucket must be in place
and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.

3.Clean the air filter
The air filter behind the front grille should be
checked and cleaned at least every 30 days
or more often if necessary.
Pull the water bucket out as shown in Fig.10.
Grip the tab on the filter and press them in slightly
to take them out fromthe filter holder, then pull out
the filter downward.(see Fig.11~13).
Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse and
let the filter dry before replacing it. Do not clean the
filter in a dishwasher.
Insert the filter into the unit,then press the tab in on
the filter slightly and push the filter upward.(See
