• Do not splash water directly onto the main unit. Doing so may cause
an electrical shock, cause the insulation to deteriorate, or cause the
unit to rust.
• The air intake and outlet grilles get soiled easily, so use a vacuum
attachment or brush to clean.
2. Clean the collector
• Every few weeks, clean the collector to prevent growth of mold,
mildew and bacteria. Partially ll the collector with clean water and
add a little mild detergent. Swish it around in the collector, empty it
and rinse it.

the collector must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidier
to operate.
• The air lter behind the front grille should be checked and cleaned
at least every two weeks or more often if necessary.
To remove:
• Grip the tab on the lter and pull it upward,
then pull it out as shown in Fig. 8.
• Clean the lter with warm, soapy water. Rinse
and let the lter dry before replacing it. Do
not clean the lter in a dishwasher.
To attach:
• Insert the air lter into the unit from
underside to upside. See Fig. 10.
