5. CONTROL PANEL AND OPERATION
Power
-
Press this button to turn the dehumidifier on, the unit bleeps three times when it is turned
on.
Tank Full
-
Lights up when the internal tank is full of water and needs to be emptied or when the tank
is incorrectly fitted.
Fault
-
Lights up when a fault is detected. Most common would be the air inlet being blocked
leading to the dehumidifier over heating internally. Clean the filter; make sure that the dehumidifier is not next to a heat
source (i.e. a radiator) and restart the dehumidifier after ten minutes. See the trouble shooting section at the end of the
manual.
Fan
-
Press the Fan button to toggle between the three fan speeds, low, medium and high. In
high fan speed the machine defaults to a continuous running mode. Water extraction will increase in medium and high
fan speeds because the regeneration heater will switch to maximum power (this increases the running wattage of the
dehumidifier as well and the amount of heat delivered to the room).
Maximum
-
Runs the dehumidifier until a relative humidity of 40%rh has been reached the
dehumidifier.
Normal
-
Aims to achieve a relative humidity of 50%rh which will be fine for most household
applications. To prevent condensation on single glazed windows or when the outside temperature drops below about
41°F you should use Maximum instead of Normal.
Minimum
-
Controls the relative humidity to 60%rh which will prevent mould from growing in the
immediate vicinity of the dehumidifier but not throughout a whole house.
Laundry
*
-
Use this mode when you want to dry washing. For optimum performance place the
dehumidifier in as small a room as possible with the door and windows closed. The dehumidifier will dry continuously
to try to achieve a relative humidity of about 35%rh which will help to dry the washing efficiently.
Take care to ensure that the dehumidifier does not become covered by the washing and that no water drips onto the
dehumidifier.
Timer
-
Using this button turns the machine off after either 1, 2, 4 or 8 hours of use. This setting is
useful for drying washing in a set time.
Swing
-
use this button to turn the rotating air deflector on or off to direct the air in the space.
