Automatic Defrosting
If the room temperature drops down to 16° C or
lower , the unit’s temperature sensor will set the
compressor to dehumidify for 25 minutes and
then shut off automatically . The fan will keep
running for 7 minutes to defrost in a cycle.
NOTE: When the defrost icon is shown on the
LCD display , the compressor will shut off and the
fan will run at high speed.
Wa ter Full Protection & Auto-Shutof f
When the water reservoir is full, the unit will
sound an alarm beeping 10 times (for about 5
seconds). The water reservoir full icon will be
displayed on the screen and the unit will shut
off automatically . This indicates that it is time to
empty the water reservoir before using the unit
again. Once the empty water reservoir is placed
back into the unit, it will take up to 3 minutes for
the dehumidifier compressor to work again. This
is a protection feature. If you wish to restart the
unit without waiting, unplug it from the electrical
outlet and plug it in again.
Wa ter Drip Protection
When the water reservoir is removed for
emptying, this device will keep the condensed
water that continues to drip. Once the water
reservoir is placed back in the unit, it will release
this water into the reservoir .
Continuous Draina ge
For added user convenience, this dehumidifier
includes a hose that can be attached to it to
operate with continuous drainage. T o use it,
simply remove the drain plug located in the
back of the unit and connect the PVC hose that
comes with the unit. Find a suitable location for
the unit where the open end of the hose can
drain the outgoing water into an appropriate
receptacle or outside of your home, far enough
away from the foundation to ensure proper
drainage. The unit will now direct water from the
bypass port and through the hose, rather than
into the water reservoir .
NOTE: Please make sure to place the open
end of the hose flat on the ground ensuring it is
not entangled.
CA UTION: The drain hose must be below the
drain plug in order for the unit to drain properly .
NOTE: T o help prevent leakage, you should
use a marker to denote the location where the
hose meets the housing on the rear of the unit.
Periodically check to make sure this indicator
has not moved away from the housing to ensure
that your hose will not leak. Leakage inside
the unit will fall into the water reservoir. If this
happens you can empty the water reservoir by
following the instructions above in the “Emptying
the Water Reservoir” section.
