During the first operation:
As the internal piping comes into contact with moisture for the first time, it can take up to approx. 3 hours for the
first liquid to accumulate in the collection container, depending on the humidity.
Start-up time / delay:
To protect the compressor, the unit does not switch on again immediately after it has stopped operation or there
has been an interruption in operation (e.g. emptying the condensation tank), but is first in a so-called "protection
mode" for approx. 3 minutes, during which neither the fan nor the compressor run. The green operating light
(running LED) also only switches on again after the protection/waiting time has elapsed.
Room humidity and dehumidification performance:
If you want to check the room humidity and the associated dehumidification performance with your own humidity
meter (hygrometer), please avoid attaching this humidity meter to a wall, as this will falsify the true humidity content
of the room air. See also the explanations under Troubleshooting !!!
