PRODUCT OVERVIEW
ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
See the information on the rear panel of the unit for electrical and other technical data specific to this unit.
Be sure the unit is properly grounded. To minimize shock and fire hazards, proper grounding is necessary.
The power cord is equipped with a three-prong grounding plug for protection against shock hazards.
Your unit must be used in a properly grounded wall outlet. If the wall outlet you intend to use is not adequately grounded or protected by a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified electrician install the proper outlet.
Ensure the outlet is accessible after unit installation.
Do not use extension cords or an adapter plug with this unit. However, if it is necessary to use an extension cord, use an approved dehumidifier extension cord only (available at most local hardware stores).
To avoid the possibility of personal injury, always disconnect the power supply to the unit, before installing and/or servicing.

USAGE
OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS USAGE
GENERAL OPERATION
Place the unit in the upright position ensuring that it is on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface. Note: To avoid a hazardous condition, do NOT place within 39 inches (100 mm) of anything that is flammable or heat-sensitive.
Plug unit into wall socket (check the rating label to ensure that it matches the voltage of your electrical outlet). ).
Ensure that the Water Reservoir (4) is properly attached and placed. Note: If the Reservoir Full light illuminates on first use, slide water reservoir out and make sure that “Float” lever moves freely. Return reservoir to proper position. SETTING UP YOUR WI-FI® FEATURE The Wi-Fi® feature of your new dehumidifier works best when located 3 to 10 feet (1 to 3 meters) from a router, with no walls or other obstructions between the unit and the router.

Error Messages
If the unit is powered off or loses connection, you will receive a “Device offline” error message. You may need to plug the unit back in or reset the unit manually.
If the reservoir is full or dislodged, you will receive a “Full tank” error message and the app will no longer allow you to make selections. You may need to empty or resettle the reservoir
WHEN RESERVOIR FULL LIGHT IS ON
When the reservoir is full, the unit will stop and the “Reservoir Full” light (A) will illuminate. Carefully remove the reservoir from the unit by sliding it out from the front of the unit, and discard water. Once the reservoir is empty, return it to position. The unit will return to normal operation.
Note: Use both hands when emptying the reservoir to avoid spillage.
DEFROST MODE
When the unit operates at low temperatures (less than 56.6°F/12°C, a layer of frost may develop on the evaporator surface, which reduces the dehumidifier’s efficiency. In these cases, the unit goes into periodic Defrost Mode. Time to defrost may vary.
Note: This unit can operate in temperatures as low as 41°F/5°C. If the unit freezes, turn OFF and restart. If the room temperature remains below 41°F/5°C, switch the unit OFF.
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE FUNCTION
If the unit is operating in a location with good drainage, follow the steps below to use the Continuous Drainage Function:
To avoid periodic emptying of the water reservoir, use the Continuous Drainage Function by attaching the drain hose (included) to the continuous drainage outlet (8) at the back of the unit. (a standard garden hose can also be used).
Unscrew and remove drain cover.
Remove soft rubber stopper (place in water reservoir for storage).
Insert the drain hose through the hole in the drain cover.
Connect drain hose to continuous drainage outlet.
Tighten drain cover by turning clockwise.
Return water reservoir to original position.
PUMP FUNCTION
Insert and twist the 16' hose into the pump outlet 9 to connect.
Once connected, the pump function will automatically be turned on. No button or switch is needed to activate this feature.
Position the hose so that the unconnected end is directed to a window, drain or other area in which water can safely be disposed of (the hose can be stretched horizontally or vertically).
Once connected, any built-up water will bypass the tank and be pumped out through the hose.
Please note that the pump will continue to function as long as the hose is connected to the pump outlet and the unit is plugged into an electrical outlet. Even if the unit is powered off, all remaining water will continue to be pumped out.
6. In order to shut off the pump function, simply disconnect the hose.
MAINTENANCE
Make sure the unit is unplugged from wall unit before cleaning.
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
Wipe with clean soft cloth.
If unit is especially dirty, use mild detergent with a moist cloth.
Do NOT clean with hose or immerse in water as this may short circuit the unit causing it to malfunction.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
The air filter (3) is designed to filter dust and other materials from the air. When the air filter is clogged, the unit will use more electricity to operate. For optimal efficiency, clean the air filter once every two (2) weeks.
1. Pull air filter out gently. 2. Clean with a vacuum cleaner or wash with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. 3. Carefully re-install air filter to the unit
TROUBLESHOOTING / SPECS
UNIT DOES NOT START
Make sure the dehumidifier’s plug is secured entirely into the outlet.
Check your home fuse/circuit breaker box.
Dehumidifier has reached its preset level or bucket is full. • Water bucket is not in the proper position.
DEHUMIDIFIER DOES NOT DRY THE AIR AS IT SHOULD
Allow enough time to remove the moisture.
Make sure there are no curtains, blinds or furniture blocking the front or back of the dehumidifier.
The humidity control may not be set low enough.
Check that all doors, windows and other openings are securely closed.
Room temperature is too low, below 41°F (5°C).
There is a kerosene heater or something giving off water vapor in the room.
THE UNIT MAKES A LOUD NOISE WHEN OPERATING
The air filter is clogged.
The unit is tilted instead of upright as it should be.
The floor surface is not level.
FROST APPEARS ON THE COILS
This is normal. The dehumidifier has Auto defrost feature.
WATER ON FLOOR
Hose to connector or hose connection may be loose.
Intend to use the bucket to collect water, but the rear drain plug is removed.
ES, AS, P2 AND EC APPEAR IN THE DISPLAY
These are error codes and protection code. See the CONTROL BUTTONS section.

For continuous, a standard garden hose can be used. Just cut the length you want. For the pump, they give you a 16 ft. tubing that must be used. It is small, maybe 1/4 inch in diameter that just plugs into the back and starts the pump working.
#5 Is it okay to attach a longer pump hose to extend the reach of the unit from the nearest drain?
As long as the extra length doesn’t increase the height of the hose run, you should be fine. I have no idea if the internal pump has the power to pump uphill for an extended hose run.
