How to operate your dehumidifier
Starting your dehumidifier: ensure that the on/off switch (see con-
trol panel) is switched off, that the change-over switch is set at
position II (high speed), and the humidistat is turned completely to
the right. Insert the plug and switch on at the mains switch. Press
the on/off switch so that the dehumidifier starts operating. The
lamp in the on/off switch will switch on at the same time, which
indicates that the dehumidifier is under tension.
Your dehumidifier is fitted with an adjustable humidistat to auto-
matically switch off the unit when the preset relative humidity in
the room ist reached an switch the appliance back on again when
it increases.
The dehumidifier is fitted with a change-over switch to the left on
the control panel, by which it is possible to change between high
and low fan speed. Wherever possible, you should always use the
high speed (pos. II), as this gives the largest dehumidification and
less risk of ice formation on the cooling coils. The low speed (pos. I)
is only to be used when the noise is annoying.
Operating the variable humidity control
You can select the level of relative humidity you require and the
appliance will operate until the preset level has been achieved at
which time the dehumidifier will switch off.
As a guide to operation - the higher the setting the lower the rela-
tive humidity level will be before the appliance switches off; there-
fore the appliance will operate longer. For your guidance in setting
the humidistat people are most comfortable at 20°C to 22°C at a
relative humidity of 45% to 55%. The correct setting for your own
personal preference.
Please note:
If your dehumidifier switches off an condensation is still present,
you may find that the humidistat is set too low (too far to the left).
Conversely if condensation has been removed from the room and
the appliance still operates, the setting may be too high (too far to
the right) and should be set at a lower position.
Defrosting
The dehumidifier is defrosted automatically. The compressor stops
for a few minutes every hour. The fan continues to operate.
Emptying the water tank
As the dehumidifier operates water will be collected in a tank fitted
within the appliance. As the tank becomes full the dehumidifier will
automatically switch off and the red lamp on the control panel will
glow indicating that the tank is full an requires emptying.
To empty the tank: switch off the dehumidifier by pressing the
on/off switch, take out the tank and empty it.
Replace the tank (wipe any water spillage from the water tank hou-
sing first) an switch on the dehumidifier.
Permanent draining option
If the dehumidifier is operated in situations with very high humidity
levels the tank may require emptying on a regular basis. To avoid
this inconvenience a suitable length of flexible hose can be fixed to
the outlet connection on the tank. The hose is mounted and led to
a drain after dismounting the plug on the tank. The plug can be
mounted again.
