MAINTENANCE
CAUTION: Always turn off and unplug the dehumidifier before cleaning
1. Cleaning the air grille and main unit
Use a damp cloth to wrap the main unit or use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach, chemicals or
abrasives.
Do not splash water directly onto the unit. Doing so may cause an electrical shock, cause the insulation to de-
teriorate, or cause the unit to rust.
Use a vacuum attachment or brush to clean the air intake and outlet grilles.
2. Cleaning the bucket
Clean the bucket to prevent growth of mold, mildew and bacteria every two weeks.
Fill the bucket with clean warm water and add mild detergent to the water.
Dry thoroughly before reinserting the bucket to the main unit.
NOTE: Do not clean the bucket in a dishwasher.
3. Cleaning the air filter
To ensure the air intake is filtered properly and to assure that your dehumidifi-
er runs efficiently, it is recommended to clean the air filter at least once every two
weeks.
Use a vacuum cleaner or tap the filter lightly to remove loose dust and dirt.
Rinse the air filter under warm or cold running water (no hotter than 100F.)
Dry thoroughly before reinserting the air filter.
Reinstall the air filter and replace bucket securely.
4. End of Season Storage
After turning off the unit, wait 24 hours before emptying the bucket to allow
excess moisture to drain into the bucket.
Attach the power cord buckle.
Wrap the power cord using the power cord buckle.
Clean the main unit, drain bucket and air filter as detailed above.
Cover the unit with the original plastic bag that came with the unit or any ap-
propriate dust cover.
Store the unit upright in a dry, well-ventilated place.
