Dehumidifier

How to dehumidify

1) Plug the appliance into a mains socket.

2) Check that the “tank full/tank missing” light is off, if not

place the tank in the correct position or empty it if it’s necessary.

3) To easily select the right humidity level, we suggest you operate

as follows:

Use the function selector to choose (for maximum dehumidi-
fying power) or (for minimum dehumidifying power).
Turn the humidistat clockwise as far as it will go to the MAX position.
(The dehumidification standby light comes on for the first 3
minutes after which the appliance starts dehumidifying).
Leave the unit on this setting until signs of excess moisture (e.g.
condensation on windows) decrease.
At this point select or and slowly turn the humidistat
knob anti-clockwise until the dehumidification light switches off.
The dehumidifier will then keep the humidity at the selected level
automatically.
