GETTING STARTED

Setting up the dehumidifier

PLACE IN ENCLOSED AREA: 

 For best results, operate the dehumidifier 

in an enclosed area to create a "drying chamber." Close all doors and 
windows that open to external areas to maximize the dehumidifier’s 
water removal efficiency. Keep traffic through the drying chamber to a 
minimum. Place the dehumidifier in the center of the room away from 
walls and furnishings where airflow may be obstructed.

ENSURE PROPER DRAINAGE: 

 This dehumidifier contains a built-in pump 

that connects to a drainage hose which is stored in the back of the unit. 
Uncoil the entire hose to ensure that there are no kinks or restrictions and 
place the unattached end into a drain or run to the outdoors. Ensure that 
water piped to the outdoors does not create a slipping hazard. To avoid 
damaging or overworking the pump, do not exceed a 10 foot vertical lift 
height between the pump and drain.

PROPER AIRFLOW IS ESSENTIAL! 

 Do not place this dehumidifier in a 

position where the front Air Intake Grill or rear Air Outlet is blocked by 
walls, furniture or any other obsruction. Do not attach ductwork to the 
unit as airflow restrictions will result.
