DRY (Dehumidifier) Operating Instructions
1) Press the I/O (on/off) key pad to switch on
the unit.
2) Press the MODE key until the word DRY
(Dehumidifying) is displayed in the LCD display
window. Fig. 17. Each depression of the MODE
key will advance to a different mode setting
(Cool-Heat-Dry-Fan).
3) Press the appropriate or key to set a
dehumidifying temperature between
10°C (50°F) to 30°C (88°F). Fig. 18. The green
indicator light will come on indicating the
dehumidifying mode is operational (there may be
a slight delay of 10-30 seconds before the cycle
begins, this is normal).
IMPORTANT: The temperature selected
should always be set a few degrees lower than the
room ambient temperature, to ensure normal
dehumidifying operation. However, it is not
recommended to operate your Dehumidifier,
below temperatures of 15.5°C (60°F), this could
result in icing-up conditions of the evaporator coils,
minimizing efficiency. Under the dehumidifying
mode, you cannot select a fan speed. The fan
motor operates at a pre-set speed, which registers
as MED in the LCD window.
4) Condensed water will be accumulated in the
water tank. When the tank is full, the unit will
sound a signal (8 beeps) and the Water Full
indicator light start flashing. At this time the
dehumidification process will immediately stop.
However, the fan motor will continue to operate
(this is normal). Carefully remove the water tank
from the cabinet and dispose of the water.
Replace the water tank back to it’s original
position (in cabinet) and the Dehumidifying
process will automatically resume. It may take
3-5 minutes for the compressor to re-start. This
is normal.
5) This unit also has provisions for a continuous
“drain” option (for basement applications having
a floor drain). The required drain hose extension
is not included with this unit. It can be purchased
through any local Hardware Store. Drain Hose
Specifications: Standard garden hose.
