Occasionally you might notice the temperature of the air coming out of the dehumidifier will feel coole r.
This is perfectly normal and part of the overall dehumidification process whereby the heater is rested
during the regeneration process for the desiccant wheel.
Dehumidifier Set Up and Use
• Position on a stable, flat surface.
• Please ensure the unit is a safe distance away from a wall or furniture.
• Please keep clothes at a safe distance of 30cm away from the air inlet or outlet to prevent water
from dripping into the unit.
• Ensure the tank is correctly fitted, if the tank is full or is not in place, the “Empty Tank” light
comes on, an alarm will sound and the dehumidifier will turn off.
• Press the Power button , you should hear some bleeps.
• Select the Mode that you want to use the dehumidifier in, for most applications this will be the
“Normal” mode.
• To turn off press the Power button again.
Where to position the dehumidifier
• For best results position the dehumidifier somewhere central like a landing or a hallway. As long
as the internal doors are open the moisture will migrate naturally towards the dehumidifier to be
processed.
• To dry washing it is best to put the dehumidifier into a small room with some heating on. Close
the door and windows and use the dehumidifier in “Laundry” mode. Hang the clothes so that they
are not touching each other and so that air can circulate between the clothes. Ensure that water does
not drip onto the dehumidifier.
Smell coming from the dehumidifier
When you first use the dehumidifier and periodically afterwards you might notice a smell coming from
the dehumidifier. This is caused by the Zeolite desiccant material and is not a sign that the dehumidifier
is faulty, nor is it harmful to humans or pets. The smell occurs because the Zeolite absorbs odours
from items like cigarettes, cosmetics, hair sprays, building materials and new furniture and then when
the desiccant is heated the smell is discharged into the room. This smell has been described as being
like a burning smell or a sour smell. It is normal, will not last long and is not a sign of a fault. You can
clear it by running the dehumidifier in a separate space like a garage or if it is dry – outside.
