Automatic defrost
The humidity contained in the ambient air condenses
when cooled and covers the evaporator fins with frost or
ice depending on the air temperature and the relative
humidity. This frost or ice buildup is automatically de-
frosted from the unit.
During the defrost phase, the dehumidification mode is
briefly interrupted. The “Defrost” control light indicates
that the defrost cycle is switched on.
Emptying the condensation tank
1. Carefully pull out the tank to-
wards you.
2. Pour the condensation into a
drain.
3. Clean the tank with a clean towel.
4. Carefully reinsert the tank into the unit.
5. Keep in mind that the unit only starts when the tank
has been correctly inserted.
The red warning lamp (Tank full) will go out and au-
tomatic operation will continue.
