INTRODUCTION

How it Works 

When the dehumidifier is started, the fan begins to pull moisture-laden air across the dehumidifying 
coils. The coils condense or draw moisture from the air, and air flows through the top louver into the 
room as dry, warm air. Moisture removed from air is collected in a water bucket on the front of the 
dehumidifier. 

The appliance is designed to operate between 41°F (5°C), and 96°F (35°C). The 

c

ompressor circuit has

an  automatic  3  minute  time  delayed  start  if  the  appliance  is  turned  off  and  on  quickly.  This  prevents 
overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. Make sure the water bucket is fitted 
correctly otherwise appliance will not turn on. 

Energy Saving Guide 

This Whynter dehumidifier is an Energy Star rated appliance. Follow the guide below can help to get 
the best performance and efficiency from your dehumidifier. 

Do not cover the air intake and outlet.

Do not place the appliance in front of curtains or drapes- to ensure they do not obstruct the air

intake.

Keep curtains, blinds or drapes closed during the sunniest part of the day.

Close all windows and doors.

Indoor relative humidity should ideally be kept between 35%RH and 60%RH depending on the

ambient temperature.

Make sure the appliance is on a hard and level surface.

To prolong the compressor's life, please wait at least 3 minutes before turning the appliance back
on after shutting it off.

Inspect and keep the air filter clean by cleaning regularly.

Perform routine maintenance.
