FAQs
How often should I clean the air filter?
It is recommended to 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?
Carefully remove the water tank from the dehumidifier. Carry the tank to a sink and empty the water. Replace the tank securely in the unit.
Can I use an extension cord with this dehumidifier?
It is recommended to plug the dehumidifier directly into a wall outlet. If an extension cord is necessary, use a heavy-duty cord rated for the appliance's power consumption.
What is the ideal humidity level for my home?
The ideal humidity level is generally between 40% and 60%. This range helps prevent mould growth and maintains a comfortable living environment.
How do I use the laundry mode?
Select the laundry mode on the control panel. This mode typically sets the dehumidifier to operate continuously at high fan speed to dry clothes quickly.
What happens if the water tank is full?
The dehumidifier will automatically shut off when the water tank is full. An indicator light will illuminate to alert you to empty the tank.
What kind of maintenance is required?
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the air filter, emptying the water tank, and occasionally wiping the exterior of the unit. Ensure the unit is clean from dust to improve its efficiency.
Troubleshooting
Dehumidifier not turning on
Check the power cord connection and ensure the unit is plugged into a working outlet. Check that the water tank is correctly inserted.
Dehumidifier is not removing moisture
Check the humidity settings and ensure they are lower than the current room humidity. Make sure the air filter is clean and not blocked. Check the ambient temperature and humidity - dehumidifiers work best in warmer environments.

Ensure the dehumidifier is placed on a level surface. Check if the fan or internal components are obstructed. If the noise persists, contact customer support.
Water tank full indicator light is on, but the tank is not full.
Check the float inside the water tank to ensure it's moving freely. Clean the float if necessary. If the issue continues, the sensor may be faulty, and you should contact customer support.
