manual abstract
By doing so you will obtain optimum results and maximum safety. Electrical connections Before plugging the appliance into the power socket, check that: • The mains power supply corresponds to the power supply indicated on the rating plate. • The power socket and electrical circuit are adequate for the appliance. • The power socket matches the plug. If this is not the case, have the plug replaced by a qualified electrician; • The power socket must be adequately earthed; Failure to respect this safety rule absolves the manufacturer from all liability. This appliance is manufactured in compliance with EEC standard EN 55014 on the suppression of radio interference. • The cable must be replaced by approved service personnel only. Installation 1) Positioning Position your dehumidifier wherever your condensation or damp problem is. A clear area of at least 50cm must be left at the front and back of the dehumidifier to ensure adequate ventilation. Do not place the dehumidifier next to a radiator or other heat source as this will reduce its performance. For ongoing usage we suggest positioning in a hallway or on a landing. Please remember to keep internal doors ajar to allow air circulation. Before using your dehumidifier for the first time, it should be stood upright for 24hrs prior to use. When moving it from room to room it is advisable to wait an hour before using it again. 2) Water Collection The water collected (condensate) can be drained in one of two ways: A) Draining into the tank The condensate can be drained directly into the tank located inside the appliance ). The tank can be easily removed and has a handle making it sim ple to carry and empty. (fig. 1). B) Continuous external draining If the appliance is to be operated for long periods of time but you are unable to empty the tank, you are recommended to use the continuous drain facility. • Drill the inside of the drain spout using a small drill bit. (Fig. 2). • Fasten the rubber hose to the spout. For models without drain hoses supplied, we suggest you purchase a rubber hose around 2m long, with an internal diameter of 9.5 mm. • Make sure that the hose is not higher than the spout (Fig. 3), otherwise water will remain in the tank; also check that the hose is not twisted. N.B: Keep the rubber bung.You will need it to plug the hose or close the spout if you revert to draining into the tank (see point A). 3 fig. 1 fig. 2 fig. 3 NO YES drain spout Dehumidifier 5748010000 6-08-2003 18:02 Pagina 4 Controls Tank control system This dehumidifier is fitted with a special device to ensure correct operation. A red indicator light on the control panel comes on to warn the user when: 1. the tank is full empty the tank 2. the tank is missing replace the tank 3. the tank is in the wrong position position the tank correctly 4. in continuous drain: the hose is obstructed or placed too high above the drain spout remove the obstruction. Once the cause has been eliminated, the light goes out and the appliance resumes operation. Dehumidification light This switches on when the machine is dehumidifying.The light remains on only when the appliance is effectively dehumidifying; if the humidity in the room is already low enough, the light will be off. Dehumidification standby/low temperature operation light The light comes on in the following two cases: 1) To signal a delay of around 3 minutes in the start-up of the appliance.This is due to a safety device which protects the compressor. 2) To signal low temperature operation.When the room temperature is too low, the electronic low temperature operation device is activated. This device allows the appliance to operate by alternating dehumidification cycles and fan only cycles. This is to avoid the formation of ice. For frequent use in cold environments, it is recommended to heat the room at the same time.This allows the dehumidifier to operate in conditions that ensure better performance and faster dehumidification. Heating light This switches on when the machine is heating.The light remains on only when the appliance is effectively heating; if the temperature in the room is already high enough, the light will be off.

Turn the humidistat clockwise as far as it will go to the MAX position. (The dehumidification standby light comes on for the first 3 minutes after which the appliance starts dehumidifying). Leave the unit on this setting until signs of excess moisture (e.g. condensation on windows) decr...
