Operating Instructions
2. Note
Ensure the supply power is in correspondence with the value on the nameplate.

Ensure the water tank is correctly fitted before the dehumidifier can be switched on.

If the dehumidifier is turned off and then turned back on again immediately, it will take approximately 3 minutes to reach full power (compressor back to work).

If the dehumidifier is switched off by a power cut, it will automatically switch back on once the power is restored.

The dehumidifier works best at normal room temperature, its efficiency is reduced if the ambient temperature falls below 15 °C.
3. Switching the Unit On / Off
Connect the mains lead to power socket.

Press power button once to turn on the unit. By default, it runs on Manual Dehumidifying Mode.

Press Power button once again to turn off the unit.
4. Target Humidity Setting
Press the Humidity button once to enter Manual Dehumidifying Mode or to select the desired humidity level

(CO, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, CO).

Note:

If ambient humidity is lower than 30%, display shows LO.

If ambient humidity is higher than 90%, display shows HI.

Switching logic

Once the target value is reached, the compressor and fan switch off immediately.

After 55 minutes, the fan switches on.

After 60 minutes, the H/T sensor switches on (five minutes after the fan) and measures the humidity.

If the humidity is above the target value, the compressor switches on and dehumidification starts again.

If the humidity is not above the target value, the fan switches off.

The next check starts again after 55 minutes.
