Overview

This document describes the Ivation 50 Pint Dehumidifier, a household appliance designed to remove moisture from the air. The dehumidifier is Energy Star rated, ensuring quality assurance and energy efficiency. It is intended for household use only and comes with a limited one-year warranty, subject to specific limits and exclusions detailed in the warranty section.

The primary function of this dehumidifier is to remove excess moisture from the air, helping to create a more comfortable and healthier indoor environment. It is capable of removing up to 50 pints of moisture from the air per day. This capacity helps prevent issues such as mold growth, musty odors, and damage to household items caused by high humidity.

Key usage features of the Ivation 50 Pint Dehumidifier include:

  • Adjustable Humidity Control: Users can set their preferred humidity level, with selections displaying in increments of 5% within an adjustable range of 30% to 90% RH (relative humidity). Once the humidity is set, the display will revert to showing the current humidity after ten seconds.
  • 2-Speed Fan: The unit offers two fan speeds, HIGH and LOW, allowing users to adjust the airflow based on their needs and the room's humidity level. Speed indicator lights are located above the fan speed button on the control panel.
  • 24-Hour Timer: A built-in timer allows users to initiate the Auto start and Auto stop features, providing flexibility in operation and energy saving.
  • Auto Defrost: When operating in low temperatures (below 56.6°F/12°C), frost may develop on the evaporator surface, reducing efficiency. The unit automatically enters Defrost Mode periodically to address this. The dehumidifier can operate in temperatures as low as 41°F/5°C. If the unit freezes, it should be turned OFF and restarted. If the room temperature remains below 41°F/5°C, the unit should be switched OFF.
  • Full Reservoir Alert: The unit features a "Reservoir Full" light that illuminates when the water reservoir is full, indicating that it needs to be emptied. The unit will stop operating until the reservoir is emptied and returned to its proper position.
  • Direct Drainage Feature: For continuous operation without the need for manual emptying, the dehumidifier can be set up for continuous drainage. This involves attaching a drain hose (included) to the continuous drainage outlet at the back of the unit. A standard garden hose can also be used. This feature is particularly useful in locations with good drainage, allowing the unit to operate uninterrupted.
  • Temperature Display: The control panel displays the current temperature when the unit is in operation. When the "Timer" button is pressed to set operation time, this display shows the set time for ten seconds before returning to the current temperature display.
  • °C/°F Button: Users can switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature displays using a dedicated button on the control panel.
  • Portability: Equipped with four durable, smooth-rolling casters, the dehumidifier can be easily moved from one location to another, enhancing its versatility.

The operational instructions emphasize proper placement and setup for safe and effective use. The unit should be placed in an upright position on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface, at least 39 inches (100 mm) away from flammable or heat-sensitive materials. It must be plugged into a properly grounded wall socket that matches the unit's electrical voltage. The water reservoir must be properly attached and placed for the unit to operate. If the "Reservoir Full" light illuminates on first use, users are advised to slide the water reservoir out, ensure the "Float" lever moves freely, and then return the reservoir to its proper position. When emptying the reservoir, it is recommended to use both hands to avoid spillage.

Maintenance features are crucial for ensuring the longevity and optimal performance of the dehumidifier:

  • Removable, Cleanable Filter: The air filter is designed to trap dust and other airborne materials. For optimal efficiency, the air filter should be cleaned once every two weeks. To clean, gently pull out the air filter, clean it with a vacuum cleaner or wash it with clean water, dry it with a soft cloth, and then carefully re-install it into the unit.
  • Exterior Cleaning: The exterior of the unit can be cleaned by wiping it with a clean, soft cloth. For especially dirty areas, a mild detergent with a moist cloth can be used. It is important NOT to clean the unit with a hose or immerse it in water, as this can cause a short circuit and malfunction. Before any cleaning, the unit must be unplugged from the wall outlet.

Safety precautions are highlighted throughout the manual to prevent injury and property damage. Users are warned not to exceed the power rating of the outlet, modify the power cord, or share the outlet with other appliances, as this may cause electric shock or fire. Disconnecting power if strange sounds, smells, or smoke occur is advised. The unit should not be used near flammable gases or combustibles. Operating or stopping the unit by switching the power on or off, inserting or pulling out the plug with wet hands, or attempting to repair the unit oneself are prohibited. The water drained from the unit should not be consumed. The power cord should not be damaged or unspecified. The unit should not be placed near a heat source. Before cleaning, the unit must be unplugged. The water bucket should not be removed during operation.

Further cautions include not covering intake or exhaust openings, not inserting fingers or foreign objects into grills, ensuring filters are securely inserted and cleaned regularly, and exercising care when using the unit in rooms with infants, children, elderly people, or individuals not sensitive to humidity. Heavy objects should not be placed on the power cord, and the cord should not be compressed. If water enters the unit, it should be turned off, disconnected from power, and a qualified service technician contacted. The unit should not be used in areas where chemicals are handled, as this can cause deterioration. Climbing or sitting on the unit is unsafe, and placing flower vases or other water containers on top of the unit is discouraged to prevent spills that could lead to electrical shock or fire.

Electrical information emphasizes proper grounding to minimize shock and fire hazards. The power cord is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug. The unit must be used with a properly grounded wall outlet. If the outlet is not adequately grounded or protected, a qualified electrician should install the proper outlet. The outlet should be accessible after installation. Extension cords or adapter plugs are not recommended; if an extension cord is necessary, only an approved dehumidifier extension cord should be used. To prevent personal injury, the power supply should always be disconnected before installing or servicing the unit.
