Care and cleaning of the dehumidier
Turn the dehumidier off and remove the plug from the
wall outlet before cleaning.
1. Clean the Grille and Case
● Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or
abrasives.
● 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 bucket
Every few weeks, clean the bucket to prevent growth of
mold, mildew and bacteria. Partially ll the bucket with
clean water and add a little mild detergent. Swish it around
in the bucket, empty and rinse.
NOTE: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the bucket. After
clean, the bucket must be in place and securely seated for
the dehumidier to operate.
3. Clean the air lter
The air lter behind the front grille should be checked and
cleaned at least every 30 days or more often if necessary.
NOTE: DO NOT RINSE OR PUT THE FILTER IN AN
AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.
To remove:
● Grip the tab on the lter and pull it upward, then pull it out
as shown in Fig.8 and Fig.9.
● 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.
CAUTION:
DO NOT operate the dehumidier without a lter because
dirt and lint will clog it and reduce performance.
4. When not using the unit for long time periods
● After turning off the unit, wait one day before emptying the
bucket.
● Clean the main unit, water bucket and air lter.
● Cover the unit with a plastic bag.
● Store the unit upright in a dry, well-ventilated place.
