Using the Adjustable air outlet cover

The LED lights will illuminate over the function when selected

The air outlet cover should always be open when 

the appliance is in use. Adjust the cover manually 

to direct the air to the preferred setting and to 

prevent the least disruption to the surroundings.

Important: 

When the dehumidifier is first used it will produce a significant amount of water and the tank will need 

emptying more frequently. As the room becomes drier the dehumidifier collects less water and the tank takes 

longer to fill.
Always switch the appliance off and unplug from the mains when removing or refitting the water tank or filter and 

before carrying out any maintenance or troubleshooting checks.

Using the hose for continuous drainage (optional)

Using the release handles pull either side 

of the water tank and remove the water 

tank from the back of the appliance .

The water tank must remain fitted to the appliance when using the hose for continuous drainage. Using the drainage hose will allow 

continuous emptying of the dehumidifier. Water will be directed out through the hose and will not collect within the internal water tank. 

The hose must be lower than the drainage port allowing the water to flow and prevent any flooding. Connect the hose to floor drain or 

stand pipe making sure it is correctly secured.

Attach the drainage hose to the  

water outlet. (Located behind the 

drainage port).

Refit the water tank making sure the 

hose lines up with the drainage port and 

does not become trapped.

Programme Options

Using the mode button choose one of the following four options: 

Fan 

– This programme operates the dehumidifier in fan only mode (no moisture extraction, ideal for summer months when dehumidification  

is not required), to circulate air in the home or a room.

Clothes dry 

– This programme ignores room humidity levels and any settings selected and operates full extraction on high fan mode.  

This programme is best suited when drying clothes ideally in a small/medium sized room. This programme will run for 4 hours and will 

automatically switch off the appliance.

Daily 

– This programme is specifically for dehumidification within the home. The user can automatically set humidity target from  

80 - 30% and will regulate to that level. The product will automatically adjust between high and low fan speed depending on the target 

humidity and actual humidity level difference.

Night

 – This programme is specifically for dehumidification at night. The user can automatically set the humidity target from 80 – 30% 

however the dehumidifier will only operate in low fan for night time use. The LED light will switch off and the audio tank full will be  

disabled, so as not to disturb you during the night.

The target humidity levels can be adjusted on the daily and night programs which are automatic.
The humidity can be adjusted from 80 – 30% in 5% increments. Once the room humidity meets the set level, the appliance will 

automatically switch off and turn back on when needed to maintain this level. (The LED light on the front panel and the display lights  

on the control panel will remain on continuously).
To make this adjustment, use the         and         buttons. The display wish flash to indicate this target value and will then revert back  

to actual room humidity.

The timer function allows you to switch the appliance off after a set number of hours. If this is not selected the appliance will run  

in continuous mode (with the exclusion of clothes drying).
Press the timer button. The display panel will then display ’00’. Using the         and         buttons select the required amount of time  

up to a maximum of 24 hours. (The clothes drying mode can only be timed to a maximum of 12 hours). After 3 seconds of setting  

the timer the display panel will revert back to displaying the humidity of the room. 
To display the remaining timed hours, press the timer button and the remaining hours will then appear on the display.

Your Vax dehumidifier automatically monitors the humidity in the room and adjusts the extraction rate accordingly, as well as changing the 

indicator light on the front of the machine.
Blue light – indicates when the room humidity is less than 50%
Green light – indicates when the room humidity is at an ideal humidity setting of between 50% - 70%
Red light – indicates when the room humidity is very high, greater than 70%
Red flashing light means the water tank is full and will need to be emptied out.
