1. GENERAL ADVICE
Before putting your dehumidifier into operation for the first time, the instruction manual should be studied carefully.
After receiving the unit, you should check your dehumidifier for any transport damage. In case of damage, you
should inform the sender immediately.
Keep the packaging for the dehumidifier in a safe place in order to be able to despatch the dehumidifier safely if it
requires a service. In order to save space, you can simply cut through the adhesive tape using a knife and fold up
the cardboard box.
2. DEHUMIDIFIER PRINCIPLES
This dehumidifier is designed to reduce humidity from the air in a building or part of a building. The purpose is to help
dry laundry, prevent condensation, mould, musty air and other issues associated with high relative humidity.
The time necessary for the dehumidifier to dry a room and reach the desired relative humidity depends on the
environmental conditions prevailing within the room. For example the number of air changes with outside, any
sources of moisture and the room temperature can all either speed up or slow down the dehumidification process.
The dehumidifier functions according to the condensation principle with heat recovery. The fan takes the humid air
from the room in and across a filter and then through an evaporator. Here the air is cooled below dew point so that
the water vapour of the air forms a condensate on the coils which flows into the internal container ready to be poured
away. The cooled and dried air is heated again by a condenser. By recycling the room air through the dehumidifier
over and over again the moisture content and relative humidity of the air is reduced.
3. INSTALLATION AND TRANSPORTATION
For installation and transportation, the following instructions must be considered:
The air inlet and the air outlet must not be covered whilst the dehumidifier is in operation.
Before any moving the dehumidifier it must be switched off by its ON-OFF switch. The mains plug is to be
removed from the socket and the water tank should be emptied.
For transportation the dehumidifier should be secured on a level base only and must be prevented from
rolling around.
The dehumidifier must always be transported vertically.
This dehumidifier must be used exclusively for air dry.
If the dehumidifier has been in a horizontal position for any time over a few minutes, you must let it stand in
the upright position for at least 30 minutes before operating. This allows the oil to drain back into the
compressor.
