FAQs

How often should I clean the filter?

Clean the air filter every two weeks, or more frequently if the unit is used in a dusty environment.

How do I empty the water tank?

When the water tank is full, the unit will stop. Remove the tank, empty it, and reinsert it. Alternatively, use the continuous drain option.

What is the continuous drainage option?

The continuous drainage option allows you to connect a hose to the unit, directing water to a drain, eliminating the need to empty the tank.

What is the optimum humidity level?

The optimum humidity level is between 50-70% Relative Humidity (RH). The indicator lights on the unit will reflect the humidity levels.

What is the sleep mode?

Sleep mode turns off the display lights for a darker environment, promoting a more restful sleep.

Does the unit have an auto-defrost function?

Yes, the unit has an auto-defrost function to prevent ice buildup on the coils, ensuring efficient operation in lower temperatures.

How do I move the dehumidifier?

The dehumidifier has four castor wheels for easy movement. Simply push the unit to your desired location.

Troubleshooting

Dehumidifier not turning on

Check the power connection and ensure the unit is plugged in correctly. Also, check the fuse.

Dehumidifier not collecting water

Check if the water tank is full or positioned correctly. Ensure the continuous drain hose, if used, is properly connected and not blocked.

Poor dehumidifying performance

Clean or replace the air filter. Ensure doors and windows are closed to prevent outside humidity from entering. Check the room size is within the unit's capacity.

Unusual noises during operation

Ensure the unit is placed on a level surface. Check for any obstructions, and ensure that the air vents are clear. If the noise persists, contact customer support.
