• Do not put fingers or foreign objects (pin, needle, stick, etc.) into the air outlet or air intake.
  (The fan is rotating at high speed inside. Injury, electric shock and malfunction may occur.)
• Do not place the unit near heating appliances.
  (Otherwise, plastic parts will melt and fire ignition may occur.)

CAUTION

Power Plug, Power Cord

• Always hold the power plug when unplugging the unit.
  (Otherwise, fire, electric shock, short circuit may occur.)
• If you are planning not to use the unit for a long time, unplug the power plug from outlet for safety.
  (Otherwise, electric shock, electric leakage or fire may be caused.)
• During maintenance, be sure to power off the dehumidifier and remove the power plug from the socket

During Usage

• For the vulnerable floor, uneven floor or long wool carpet, lift the main unit
  when you move it. (Otherwise, the floor or carpet may be scratched).
• Do not overturn or drop the main unit. Do not store or move the dehumidifier when the main unit is overturned. (Otherwise, equipment damage or malfunction such as water/electric leakage
  may be caused.)
• Do not use the dehumidifier in a narrow place, for example, the gap of a closet or furniture.
• Prevent cloth or other objects from obstructing the air outlet or inlet.
  (Poor ventilation may lead to overheating or fire.)

• Do not rinse the main unit with water.
• Do not place an object with water such as a vase on top of the main unit.
• For indoor use only. Do not use the unit under direct sunlight or in any location exposed to rain and wind.
• Do not leave the unit where oil or flammable gas may leak.
  (Otherwise, electric shock, overheating, electric leakage or fire may be caused.)
• Do not expose the air from this product directly to heating appliances.
  (Otherwise, incomplete combustion of heating may be caused.)
• Do not stand or lean on the main unit.
  (Otherwise, injury may be caused from moving or falling.)
• Do not use the drained water for drinking or feeding.
  (Otherwise, health problems may be caused.)
• Do not use for storage/special purpose for artworks or academic materials.
  (Otherwise, quality degradation of stored materials may be caused.)

• Before moving the main unit, always stop the operation and dispose the water in the water tank.
  Operate the unit only on level, stable surfaces.
  (If water leaks from the dehumidifier and soaks the furniture in the room, electric shock, electric leakage or fire may be caused.)
• Always have plenty of room around the main unit.
  (Poor ventilation may cause over-heating, fire, malfunction.)

• Be sure to clean the product, floor and surroundings when using the product in a same place for a long period of time.
  (Move the dehumidifier and clean the ground from time to time.)
• Do not remove the water tank while the dehumidifier is operating.
  (Otherwise, water may drop on the floor or carpet.)

WHEN MOVING

NOTE: For the vulnerable floor, uneven floor or long wool carpet, lift the main unit when you move it;
otherwise, the floor or carpet surface may be damaged.

HOW TO OPERATE

AUTO DEFROST

• During defrosting, the defrosting indicator is on, the compressor stops, and the fan keeps rotating at the highest speed. After the defrosting ends, the dehumidifying function starts, the compressor restarts, and the fan resumes the preset speed.
• When the temperature sensor fixed on the copper pipe of evaporator detects that the dehumidifier temperature is lower than or equal to -1°C (and the relative room temperature is lower than or equal to 13°C), the dehumidifier will start the automatic defrosting procedure, namely, the dehumidifier defrosts automatically after the dehumidifying mode runs for 20 minutes; when the evaporator surface is defrosted completely, the temperature sensor detects that the temperature is higher than or equal to 2°C and the defrosting duration is longer than or equal to 10 minutes, the dehumidifier will stop defrosting and enable the dehumidifying function.

COMPRESSOR STOP / START PROTECTION

• During operation, if the compressor stops due to any operation, the dehumidifier will automatically switch to the function of restarting the compressor after stopping it for 3 minutes, namely, the compressor cannot be restarted in 3 minutes, but other functions are available.
• In the dehumidifying mode, if you remove and replace the water tank or power off and power back on the dehumidifier, the dehumidifying function will start after an interval of 3 minutes.

CONTROL PANEL

EASY-TO-USE FUNCTIONS

After you insert the power plug, all the LED indicators and digital display are on for 1 second and then turn off. Meanwhile, the buzzer sends three alert sounds. Each time you press a button, the buzzer sends a alert tone. When you press the ON / OFF button to power the unit off, the buzzer sends a long beep sound .

OTHER FUNCTIONS

AUTO STOP AT TANK FULL

•  If the water in the water tank reaches the set level when the dehumidifier operates in the dehumidifying mode, both the compressor and the fan motor stop running, the unit stops operation the buzzer sends out ten warning sounds, and only the Tank full indicator is on.

POWER FAILURE MEMORY

•  After you power off the unit by pressing the ON/OFF button, when you power it back on by pressing the same button, the dehumidifier will begin operating with the mode before it is powered off.
  If power fails while the dehumidifier is operating (i.e. the power plug is removed), the dehumidifier will memorize the operating mode before the power failure and resume this mode automatically after it is powered back on.

LOW/HIGH TEMPERATURE PROTECTION

• The function eliminates the risk that the dehumidifier may operate in an abnormal environment. When the temperature/humidity sensor of the air inlet detects that the current ambient temperature is lower than or equal to 0°C or higher than or equal to 40°C (including open circuit or short circuit of the temperature sensor (NTC)), the dehumidifier will stop running and enable the over-temperature protection function. The buzzer keeps sending out three long and two short warning tones, all the indicators turn off, and only the digital display blinks and shows C1.

• When the temperature sensor of the copper pipe of evaporator detects that its temperature is higher thanor equal to 40°C within two continuous minutes, the dehumidifier will stop running and enable the over-temperature protection function. All the indicators turn off, only the digital display blinks and shows C2, none of the buttons work, and the buzzer does not beeps. In this case, you must power off and back on the dehumidifier.

HOW TO DRAIN

After the water tank is removed, the Tank full indicator is on and the operation stops .

Note: 

• Always stop the operation and dispose water before moving the main unit.
  (Water in the tank may spill and damage household goods.)
• Clean the inside of water tank periodically (about once a week).
  (Failing to clean for a long period of time may increase mold and bacteria which causes bad odor.)

CONTINUOUS DRAINPIPE

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

We recommend periodical cleaning for a long, clean and sanitary use !

AIR INLET Once Week

FOR HEAVY DUST
