Your dehumidifier will begin to protect your home from the harmful effects of
excessive moisture as soon as it is turned on.
Excess moisture travels throughout your home, in the same way cooking smells
spread to every room in the house. For this reason, the dehumidifier should be
positioned in a central and clear location so that it can draw the moist air towards it
from all over the home. A warm hallway or landing is an excellent position for your
dehumidifier. If possible, leave interior doors ajar to allow air circulation.
Alternatively, if you have a serious problem in one area you can begin by positioning
the dehumidifier there and later moving it to a more central point.
For the most effective use, run your dehumidifier with external doors and windows
kept closed when the dehumidifier is operating. Please note the unit should not be
placed directly against a radiator or other heat source.
When positioning your dehumidifier, ensure that it is placed securely on a level
surface clear of any obstacle that may limit the air movement.
Your dehumidifier is fitted with 4 wheels for easy movement. Before you move the
unit, switch it off and empty the water tank.
imPorTANT:
Keep a minimal 0.2 m safety distance between the appliance and an electrical heater
or any inflammable surface.

Always unplug the unit from the mains before carrying out any maintenance or
cleaning the unit.
Cleaning the body
Use only a soft cloth to wipe the unit clean.
Do not use volatile chemicals, petrol, detergents, chemically treated cloths or other
harmful cleansing solutions. These could all possibly damage the cabinet.
Cleaning the washable air filter
This dehumidifier is equipped with a washable filter. This will
capture most airborne pollutants like dust, smoke, animal
dander, mould spores and pollen to create a less irritating
living environment.
It is advisable to check the filter on a regular basis (at least
monthly and after storage) and clean as necessary:
• Extract the filter holder
• Use a vacuum cleaner or tap the filter lightly.
If the filter is particularly dirty, use lukewarm water with a small amount of medium
strength detergent and rinse thoroughly under the cold water tap.
Make sure the filter is completely dry before replacing.
Do not expose the filter to sunlight or other sources of direct heat as this may cause
the filter and frame to warp.
sTorAGe

When the water tank is full, the unit will switch off
automatically and beep 15 times, the LED [2] will light up.
- hold the top and bottom center of the tank with both hands
and pull it out gently.
- after having emptied the tank, gently push the tank back
into its place. The LED light will go off.
warning:
1. Do not remove the float from the water tank. The tank full sensor will no longer
be able to detect the water level correctly without the float and water may leak
from the water tank.
2. If the tank is dirty, wash it with cold or lukewarm water. Do not use detergent,
scouring pads, chemically treated dust cloths, gasoline, benzene, thinner, or
other solvents, as these can scratch and damage the tank and cause water
leakage.
3. When replacing the drainage tank, press the tank firmly into place with both
hands. If the tank is not positioned properly, the “TANK FULL” sensor will be
activated, and the dehumidifier will not operate.
