Operating manual
1. The dehumidifier is designed for 1/N/PEN 230 V / 50 Hz
single-phase current with earth connector. 16 A fuse.
2. If cable drums etc. are used, they always have to be
completely unrolled during operation! When connecting several
dehumidifiers to a cable drum, always observe total power and
fusing specifications!
3.Socket CEE 7/7:
The dehumidifier must only be operated with ground
connection!
4. The device must be positioned in a way that the air inlet and
outlet grids are not being blocked.

5. The condensate can be permanently discharged from the
dehumidifier via the hose connection. To do so, the condensate
discharge line must be laid with a continuous decline all the
way to the drain.
Alternatively, you can set up a water collection container next
to the device. Due to the high dehumidification performance,
we recommend using a container with a volume of at
least 90 litres. Once the water collection container is full, the
dehumidifier does not switch off automatically. For this reason,
always make sure to empty the container in time.
To do so, the condensate discharge line must be laid with a
continuous decline all the way to the drain.
If you use a separate water collection container, cut the
condensation drain hose connected to the dehumidifier right
below the upper part of the container (or above the maximum
water level inside the container). If the hose end is positioned
below the water level in the collection container, it may affect
the condensate discharging properly from the dehumidifier,
which will lead to water leaking out uncontrollably from the
dehumidifier.
See operating manual when operating with integrated
condensate pump.
6. Room temperatures below approx. 18 °C may cause the
(extensive) formation of ice at the dehumidifier's cooling
element (air intake side). The ice will quickly defrost
automatically and regularly. The fan in the dehumidifier
switches off during the defrosting process. The defrosting time
depends on the temperature.
7. After switching the dehumidifier off, wait at least 5 minutes
until switching it on again. Otherwise damages on the device
may occur.
8. Cleaning: In order to guarantee a high dehumidification
performance, clean the device regularly. Always disconnect the
mains plug prior to cleaning! Clean the cooling grids of the
dehumidifier's air inlet every 4-6 weeks depending on their
degree of contamination (see instructions).
The connection of the condensate discharge and the attached
condensation hose should be disconnected after each use. In
addition, they should be cleaned with compressed air in the
opposite direction of the water current direction. Otherwise,
contaminations and blockage may occur inside the condensate
discharge line, and water may uncontrollably leak out of the
lower part of the dehumidifier.
It is best to use air filters which also have to be cleaned with
compressed air and/or water on a regular basis, depending on
their degree of contamination.
Transport and storage
The device can be transported and stored in vertical and
horizontal position. Operation must only be carried out in a
vertical position! Other operating positions will lead to a
complete device failure!
