General safety rules

• Read the following instruction manual.
• Keep this always this manual with the dehumidifier for future reference.
• This dehumidifier is NOT intended for people, children included, with limited physical or mental
cababilities or without enough experience concerning the use of it. Keep it away from children and
animals.
• This dehumidifier SHOULD not operate in rooms where a danger of explosion exists.
• Do NOT use this dehumidifier in environments with air containing oil, sulphur or chlorine.
• Keep always the inlet and outlet air grids free (10 centimeters at least).
• The appliance must always operate in a vertical position with the four wheels turned downwards.
• Do NOT move the dehumidifier when working.
• To move the dehumidifier switch it off and empty the condensate tank.
• Do NOT put any tool inside the unit.
• Make sure that the power supply voltage corresponds to that indicated in Tab.A, that the electrical
installations comply with the regulations in force and are properly protected.
• Do NOT use the dehumidifier in different ways other then the one described in this manual.
!
WARNING: any maintainance on the refrigerating or electric circuit must be made
only by experienced and qualified staff.
Introduction
This appliance is an air dehumidifier that removes the humidity from the environment. It's equipped with a
refrigerating circuit and the new electronic control performs all the fuctions included automatic start and
stop and defrosting cycle if necessary. These dehumidifiers were designed for a domestic an not industrial
use.
Operating principle
The appliance uses a fan (5) to suck up the air (14) to be dehumidified and pass it through the refrigera-
tor circuit evaporator (9). In this way the temperature of the air is lowered to below its dew point and the
vapour condenses to form drops of water that are collected in the appropriate tank (11).
!
The water collected inside the tank is NOT drinkable. Do NOT drink this water
anyway.
The air thus dehumidified is passed through the condenser (10) that raises its temperature slightly higher
than the initial value. In this way the quantity of humidity contained in the environmental air is gradually
decreased until it reaches the desired value.
S
When the dehumidifier works in a room it reduces the humidity of the walls and
floor of the room, as well as the materials contained therein, is also lowered.
The defrosting cycle
If the temperature goes below 16°C ice may form on the evaporator (9). The ice must be regularly melted
to avoid it reduces the air passage. The electronic board automatically performs the defrosting cycle (see
ahead). During the defrosting cycle the compressor (6) stops. The time it takes to melt the ice changes with
the humidity and temperature.
