Installing it properly
ikWARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
Because your dehumidifier weighs
between 50 lbs (22.5 kg) and 75 lbs
(33.75 kg), depending on the amount
of water collected in the pan, it is
recommended that you use proper
lifting techniques when lifting or moving
your unit.
Failure to do so could result in personai
injury.
1. Allow at least 12 Inches (30.5 cm) of
space on all sides of the unit for good
air circulation.
2. Install your dehumIdIfier on a floor,
table, or shelf. When installing the
dehumidifier on a table or shelf, make
sure the table or shelf is strong enough
to support the weight of the dehumidifier
with a full water pan (50 to 75 lbs [28.5
to 33.75 kg]). Do not sit or stand on the
dehumidifier.
NOTE: The height of a tabie or sheif
might provide a better position from which
to handie the water pan and help prevent
icing of the coils due to colder air near the
floor (such as in a basement).
3. Keep all outside doors, windows,
and other openings closed when the
dehumidifier is operating. Humid outdoor
air will add to the dehumidifier’s operating
load.
4. The water pan must be properly
positioned on the hangers inside the
cabinet in order for the automatic shutoff
to operate correctly.
5. Two rollers let you move the dehumidi­
fier easily. Remove the water pan, tilt
the unit fonward, and roll it to another
position.
