2. DRAINING THE CONDENSATE WATER
The condensate can be drained in 2 ways:
2.1 Draining into the tank
The condensate is drained directly into the tank (A6).
When the tank is full, the appliance stops and the control panel
(C) displays the tank alarm (C1).
To restore operation of the appliance, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the tank (g. 1) and empty it into a sink or bathtub.
2. Replace the tank in its housing, making sure the handle is
properly positioned (g. 2).
2.2 Continuous external draining
If the appliance is used for long periods of time without the
possibility to regularly empty the tank, the continuous drain
function should be used. Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the continuous drain cap (A10) from the spout,
turning it in an anti-clockwise direction, then remove the
rubber stopper (A9) from the opening (g. 3). (Watch out
for any leaking water!)
2. Attach the condensate drain hose (A11) to the spout (g.
4).
3. Make sure the hose is positioned below the spout (g. 5), or
the water will ow back into the tank of the appliance.
Also make sure there are no kinks in the hose.
3. MODE SELECTION
Connect the appliance to the mains supply. Upon rst use, the
symbol will appear on the display and at the same time,
an acoustic signal will sound to indicate that the appliance is in
stand-by mode.
1. To turn the appliance on, touch the button (B1)
The’appliance will operate in the previously set mode and
the air outlet louver (A1) will open in a preset position (g.
6).
2. If there is a blackout, when the power is restored the
appliance will resume operation in the previously set
operating mode.
Please note:
• If the symbol (C1) appears on the display, the
tank (A6) needs to be emptied or properly positioned. (see
paragraph “2.1 Draining into the tank”).
3.1 Dehumidifying mode
1. Touch the button (B3). The symbol (C6) will
blink on the display (g. 7).
2. The display shows the previously set relative humidity value.
When the symbol blinks, the setting can be changed
by repeatedly touching the button . There are 5
dierent relative humidity settings ranging from 30% (dry
environment) to 70% (humid environment). Depending
on the ambient conditions, it may not be possible for the
appliance to reach the minimum settable value. In these
cases it is recommended to heat the environment needing
to be dehumidied.
3. When the symbol stops blinking, the display shows the
percentage of relative humidity in the room. The appliance
may take a few seconds to display the value of the relative
humidity in the room.
4. When the room reaches the preset relative humidity level,
the appliance stops dehumidifying and operates at a very
slow ventilation speed.
3.2 Dry mode
1. Touch the button (B5). The display shows the
symbol (C4) (g. 8).
