■ Operation

ENGLISH

Owner’s Manual 7

Prior to Operation

1. Consult an installation specialist for installation.

2. Plug in the power plug properly.

3. Use a dedicated circuit.

4. Do not use an extension cord.

5. Do not start/stop operation by plugging/unplugging the power cord.

6. If the cord/plug is damaged, only replace it with an authorized replacement part.

1. Being exposed to direct airflow for an extended period of time could be hazardous to your

health. Do not expose occupants, pets, or plants to direct airflow for extended periods of time.

2. Ventilate the room when the dehumidifier is used with other heating devices. Otherwise the

oxygen supply may be inadequate.

3. Do not use this dehumidifier for non-specified special purposes (e.g. preserving precision

devices, food, pets, plants, and art objects). Such usage could damage the items.

1. Do not touch the metal parts of the unit when removing the filter. Injuries can occur when

handling sharp metal edges.

2. Do not use water to clean inside the dehumidifier. Exposure to water can destroy the insulation,

leading to possible electric shock.

3. When cleaning the unit, first make sure that the power and breaker are turned off. The fan

rotates at a very high speed during operation. There is a possibility of injury if the unit’s power

is accidently turned on while the interior of the unit is being cleaned.

For repair and maintenance, contact your authorized service dealer.

Electrical Safety

WARNING: This appliance must be properly grounded.

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug.

To minimize the risk of electric shock, use the plug with a standard three-slot

grounding wall power outlet. If the power outlet does not include a grounding slot,

have a qualified electrician replace the outlet before you use the dehumidifier.

WARNING: Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from the

power plug.

WARNING: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall

receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the

cover screw is metal and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is

grounded through the house wiring.

WARNING: If you have any doubt whether the dehumidifier is

properly grounded, have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by

a qualified electrician.

Preferred method

Ensure proper ground

exists before use

10 Dehumidifier

Electrical Safety

Temporary Use of an Adapter

We strongly discourage the use of an adapter due to potential safety hazards.

For temporary connections, use only a UL-listed adapter, available from most local

hardware stores. To disconnect the power cord from the adapter, use one hand on

each to avoid damaging the ground terminal. Avoid frequently unplugging the power

cord as this can lead to eventual ground terminal damage.

WARNING: Never use the appliance with a broken adapter.

We strongly discourage the use of an extension cord due to potential safety

hazards.

1.Allow at least 12 inches of space on all sides of the unit for good air circulation.

2.Install your dehumidifier on a floor, table, or shelf. When installing the dehumidifier

on a table or shelf, make sure the table or shelf is strong enough to support the weight

of the dehumidifier with a full bucket. Do not sit or stand on the dehumidifier.

Secure wheels with blocks to prevent unit from falling when installed on a table or shelf.

The height of a table or shelf might provide a better position from

which to handle the bucket and help prevent icing of the coils due to

colder air near the floor (such as in a basement.)

3.Lift the bucket and place it in the dehumidifier, making sure the slots on

the bottom side of the bucket are positioned correctly.

4.Rollers let you move the dehumidifier easily.

NOTICE

1.Pull out the bucket cover. 2.

Brush off the residue in the bucket.

Clean the bucket by

wiping with a brush or a cloth

dampened in a mild detergent

solution.

3. Close the cover.

Push the tabs on the top

of the bucket when installing

the bucket.

NOTICE

• Use the dehumidifier in a

basement to help prevent

moisture damage.

• Use the dehumidifier in laundry

drying, bathing, and dishwashing

areas which have excessive

moisture.

• Use the dehumidifier to prevent

moisture damage where books

are stored.
