Important Notes Before Use
• The water bucket must be properly installed and emptied in order for the dehumidifier to function.
• Do not remove the bucket while the unit is in operation. If the bucket needs to be emptied, please make sure you shut off the unit first.
This appliance features auto shutoff when the bucket is full or removed entirely, but you should not remove it while the unit is running
to avoid risk of electrical shock or other safety hazards.
• If you would prefer to use a hose to continuously drain the device rather than repeatedly emptying the bucket, please refer to the
“Option 2: Hose” section under Drainage Options on page 8.
• All successful button presses on the control panel will be indicated with an auditory “beep” response as confirmation.
• When the power cable is connected, the indicator light above the power button will be lit and the dehumidifier will beep to confirm it
has been connected to a power source.
Using Your Dehumidifier
For further detail on the functions of the buttons and lights on the control panel, please refer to Button Functions on page 6.
1. Press the power button to turn the unit on.
2. Use the + or – keys to adjust the humidity levels by increments of 5%.
NOTES ON HUMIDITY
You can only adjust the humidity percentage while the device is not operating in any of the preset modes (Sleeping
Space, Living Room, Basement, or Continuous). Each of these modes has a predefined humidity percentage that
cannot be altered. To exit the preset modes and manually adjust the humidity, press the MODE key until none of the
lights next to the preset names are illuminated.
Humidity levels are only available from 35% – 80%. This is a standard feature on the majority of dehumidifiers. Under
35% humidity is too dry to be comfortable, and over 80% humidity is not only too muggy to be comfortable, but could
also cause the device to malfunction or create the risk of electrical shock.
3. Press the button labeled FAN SPEED to adjust the speed of the fan. Some preset modes have default fan speeds, but you can adjust
these to suit your comfort levels.
4. If you would like to set a timer for how long the dehumidifier should run, follow these instructions. If not, skip to step 5.
a. Press the TIMER button while the device is switched on. This will cause the timer indicator to start blinking.
b. Use the + and – keys to set the duration of the timer.
(If the duration is less than 10 hours, the + and – keys will adjust in increments of 0.5 hours. If the duration is more than 10 hours,
they will adjust the duration in increments of one (1) hour. Maximum duration is 24 hours.)
c. Once the time is set, you can either wait five (5) seconds for the timer to automatically confirm, or press the TIMER button a
second time to confirm right away. The indicator light labeled TIMER will be illuminated to notify you that a timer has been set.
d. To cancel an existing timer, press the TIMER button. This will only work if the unit has a timer set already. To check if there is a
timer currently set, check the TIMER indicator LED. If it is illuminated, a timer has been set. If not, pressing the TIMER button will
start the process of setting a timer.
e. To set a timer for how long you would like your dehumidifier to stay off before turning back on, repeat the above steps while the
device is switched off.
5. If you would like the dehumidifier to operate in one of the preset modes (Sleeping Space, Living Room, Basement, or Continuous),
press the MODE button until the indicator LED next to your preferred mode is illuminated. Please note that while using the
dehumidifier in any preset mode, you cannot change the humidity levels, but you can change the fan speed. In continuous mode,
the dehumidifier will not turn itself off and on automatically while running, so you could experience an increase in power
consumption and a decrease in energy efficiency.
6. If you have a pump connected to drain the water bucket, press and hold the PUMP button for three (3) seconds, and the dehumidifier
will enter Pump Mode. The indicator light next to the word PUMP will be illuminated to verify that. For further instructions on how to
connect a pump to the dehumidifier, see the “Option 3: Pump” section under Drainage Options on page 9.
7. Once you’ve established your preferred settings, you can press and hold the + and – keys for three (3) seconds to lock the buttons on
the control panel. This will make sure nothing gets changed by accident. The LOCK indicator LED will also light up, and the display
panel will flash LC three (3) times to notify you that the keypad is locked. To unlock the control panel and make any changes, simply
press and hold the + and – keys for another three (3) seconds.
