CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Care and cleaning of the dehumidier
Turn the dehumidier o 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.

IN AN AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.
To remove:
Pull the water bucket out as shown in Fig.9.
Grasp the lower side of the lter and pull it downward,
see Fig.10.
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 the side and push
it upward. See Fig.10.
CAUTION:
