NOTES
• When first using the dehumidifier, operate the unit continuously 24 hours. Make sure the plastic cover on the continuous drain hose outlet install stightly properly so there are no leaks.
• This unit is designed to operate with a working environment between 5°C/41°F and 35°C/95°F.
• Make sure the water bucket is positioned correctly so that the unit can operate properly. When the water in the bucket reaches to a certain level, please be careful to move the unit to avoid it spill.
Removing Collected Water
There are two ways to remove collected water:
1. Use the bucket
• When the unit is off , if the bucket is full, the Full indicator light will light.
• When the unit is on, if the bucket is full, the compressor and the fan turn off , and the Full indicator light will light, the digital display shows P2.
• Slowly pull out the bucket. Grip the left and right handles securely, and carefully pull out straight so water does not spill. Do not put the bucket on the as because the bottom of the bucket is uneven. Otherwise water may be spilled.
• Throw away the water and reposition the bucket.
• The unit will restart operation when the bucket back in place.
NOTES
• When you remove the bucket, do not touch any parts inside the unit. Doing so may damage the product.
• Be sure to push the bucket gently all the way into the unit.

• When the unit is off, if the bucket is removed, the unit will beep 8 times and the digital display shows Eb.
2. Continuous draining
• Water can be automatically emptied into a fl oor drain by attaching the unit with a water hose (Id Ø 5/16”, not included) with a female threaded end (ID: M = 1”, not included).
• Remove the plastic cover from the back drain outlet of the unit and set aside, then insert the drain hose through the drain outlet of the unit and lead the drain hose to the fl oor drain or a suitable drainage facility. (See Fig. 7 and Fig. 8)
• When you remove the plastic cover, if there is some water in the back drain outlet of the unit you must dry it. Make sure the hose is secure so there are no leaks and the end of the hose is level or down to let the water fl ow.
• Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will stop the warter fl owing.
• Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed on the unit for continuous draining to start.
NOTE
When the continuous draining feature is not being used, remove the drain hose from the outlet, and dry the water in the continuous drain hose outlet.
NOTE
Do not use this operation when the outdoor temperature is equal to or less than 32°F (0°C), otherwise water may freeze causing blockages and the unit may cease to function properly.
Make sure to empty the bucket at least once a week when using the pump draining feature. When the pump draining feature is not being used, remove the pump drain hose from the outlet.
Installation Instructions
Positioning the Unit
A dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little or no effect in drying an adjacent enclosed storage area, such as a closet, unless there is adequate circulation of air in and out of the area. (See Fig. 9)
• Do not use outdoors.
• This dehumidifer is intended for indoor residential applications only. This dehumidifier should not be used for commercial or industrial applications.
• Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor strong enough to support the unit with a full bucket of water.
• Allow at least 8 inches of air space on all sides of the unit for air circulation (at least 16 inches for air outlet).
• Place the unit in an area where the temperature will not fall below 41°F (5°C). The coils can become covered with frost at at lower temperatures, which may reduce performance.
• Place the unit away from any clothes dryer, heater or radiator.
• Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.
Care and Cleaning
Turn the dehumidifier off and disconnect the plug from the wall before cleaning.
1. Clean the Grill and Case
• Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or abrasives.
• Do not splash water directly onto the unit. Doing so may cause an electrical shock, cause the insulation to deteriorate, or cause the unit to rust.
• The air intake and outlet may get dirty during operation, use a vacuum cleaner or brush to clean.
2. Clean the bucket
Every few weeks, clean the bucket thoroughly to prevent growth of mold, mildew and bacteria. Partially fill the bucket with clean water and mild detergent. Swish it around in the bucket, empty and rinse.
NOTE
Do not use a dishwasher to clean the bucket.
3. Clean the air filter
• To remove the filter, pull filter outwards (See Fig. 10).
• Wash the filter with clean water then dry.
• Re-install the filter, replace bucket.
CAUTION
Turn the dehumidifier off and disconnect the plug from the wall before cleaning. DO NOT operate the dehumidifi er without a fi lter to avoid loss of performance and damage to the unit.
4. When not using the unit for long time periods
• Before storing the unit, let it rest for one full day so that the system can dry out naturally.
• Clean the unit, water bucket and air fi lter.
• Wrap the cord with the power cord buckle.
See other models: AC25CEW-BS
• Cover the unit with a plastic bag.
• Store the unit upright in a dry, well-ventilated place.
