CLEANING THE FILTER

and cleaned every 6 months.
1. Press the ON/OFF button on the user interface to turn the unit
OFF.
2. Loosen the retaining screw on the lter access door (see
FIGURE 1) from the drain side of the dehumidier until it
releases and then remove the lter door.
3. Slide the lter out of the dehumidier.

particles from the lter.

has been properly installed. See INSTALLING THE DRAIN on
