Installation, Location & How It Works

Location

Selecting a Location

IMPORTANT:

  1. Dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective. Close all doors, windows, and other outside openings to the room. The effectiveness of the dehumidifier depends on the rate at which new moisture-laden air enters the room.
  2. Place dehumidifier in a location that does not restrict airflow through the rear of the unit.
  3. 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. lt may be necessary to install a second dehumidifier in the enclosed area for satisfactory drying.
  4. The dehumidifier must be installed on a level floor that will support it with a full bucket of water.
  5. There should be a minimum of 18 inches clea
  6. Dehumidifier generates heat, do not operate in small spaces like closets, overheating may occur.

How It Works

When the unit is started, the fan begins to pull moisture-laden air across the dehumidifying coils.The coils condense or draw moisture from the air, and air flows through the top louvers into the room as dry, warm air. Moisture removed from air is collected in a bucket on the rear of the dehumidifier.

The unit is designed to operate between 41 °F (5 °C), and 90 °F (32 °C). The unit will not work properly if the temperature is out of this temperature range, or the performance of the unit will fall greatly.

The "Compressor" circuit has an automatic 3 minute time delayed start if the unit is turned off and on quickly. This prevents overheating of the compressor and possible circuit breaker tripping. Make sure the tank is fitted correctly otherwise unit will not turn on.

Operating Instructions

Operating Instructions

Operating Instructions 4 .cnI ,stcudorP emoH xulortcelE 9002 .devreser sthgir llA Allow the unit to reach room temperature before operating. To begin operating the dehumidifier, follow these steps:

NOTE Unit must be upright for one hour prior to operating

1. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded 115 volt AC outlet.

2. To turn the unit on, press the ON/OFF button. The unit will run in the factory setting of CONTINUOUS and high fan speed. In the CONTINUOUS mode, the unit will only display CO and not the room humidity. It is recommended you leave the unit running in the CONTINUOUS setting for the first three or four days until the sweating and dampness odors have stopped.

3. After a few days when the Relative Humidity has declined, press the HUMIDITY buttons to choose a value between 35% to 85%, so the room is kept at a comfortable humidity. Pressing the buttons will change the humidity selection in 5% increments. After you have set the desired humidity, the readout will display the actual room humidity. If at any time you want to return to the CONTINUOUS Mode, pressing the HUMIDITY button will lower the Relative Humidity through the 5% decrements until the display reads CO.

When unit is in operation, pressing button will simultaneously for 3 seconds can lock buttons. If this function is enabled, LOCK indicator will illuminate and display shows LC, which will blink for 3 times. Then room humidity will be display again. To disable this function, press button simultaneously for 3 seconds and the LOCK indicator will turn off.

4. You can also use the FAN SPEED button to change the fan speed to HIGH, Medium or LOW. The indicator light will show the setting you have selected. A higher fan speed will result in quicker moisture removal.5. The CLEAN FILTER light will illuminate after 250 hours of operation. At this time refer to the care and cleaning section to remove and clean the filter. Once the filter has been cleaned and replaced, simply press the FILTER button to extinguish the light. 6. The TIMER function enables you to either Delay Start or Delay Stop the unit in the choice from 0.5 hour to 24 hours. If the unit is running, then selecting Timer will turn the unit off in the hours that will be set (Delay Stop). If the unit is off, then selecting Timer will turn the unit on in the hours that will be set (Delay Start).

TIMER setting: First press TIMER button, then adjust timer setting, by tapping holding the or button to change the delay timer at 0.5 hour increments, up to 10 hours, then by 1 hour increments up to 24 hours. The control will count down the time remaining (8,7.5,7, etc.) until the unit either starts or stops. For the Delay Start, the fan speed and humidity maintained will be the same as previous setting. After TIMER setting finishes, pressing TIMER button again at any time will stop the TIMER function. The Delay Start/Stop Feature will work until the unit either starts or stops. Once that happens the above steps have to be repeated.

Note

  1. Before entering TIMER setting, make sure power is being supplied to the unit.
  2. Before entering TIMER setting, make sure pressing or button sets one desired room humidity first.7. Press PUMP button, the unit will enter water pump mode. Pump Mode Indicator will be on. When the water tank is full of water,the pump will start to pump water automatically. The pump will stop automatically after a set period

8. To shut the unit down, press the ON/OFF button

Fault Codes

1. If the display reads "F1", "F2", "L1" or "H3" error codes, please turn off and unplug the unit, then plug it in again in 30 minutes. If the unit malfunctions again, please contact your Authorized Frigidaire Service Center.

2.If the display reads "F0" , check the following operating conditions. Outlet voltage should be 115V±10% and the surrounding temperature should be with in the range of 41 °F (5 °C) to 90 °F (32 °C). Unplug the unit and plug it in again under normal operating conditions. If the "F0" code persists, contact your Authorized Frigidaire Service Center.3.If the display reads "PU", check the following operating conditions: a. Make sure the pump drain hose is well connected. b. Check that the hose is not blocked, kinked or frozen. c. Remove and empty the water bucket to check the bucket pickup for blockage of dirt or alge. d. Turn off the unit and restart it under normal operating conditions. e. Unplug the unit and plug it in again under normal operating conditions. If the "PU" code persists, contact your Authorized Frigidaire Service Center.

NOTE:

  1. If your unit does not pump water, you need to check below first: a. Check the pump is turned on. b. The unit will not pump untill it reaches the full bucket point.
  2. Please follow the steps described in “Emptying the Bucket” to remove and empty the water bucket.
  3. Please follow the steps described in “Care and Cleaning” to clean the unit regularly to prevent dirt or alge.

c. Screw the garden hose onto the threaded portion of the drainage adapter. (fig.7)d. Make sure the hose is secure so there are no leaks.

e. Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will stop the water flowing. (fig.8)

f. When you want to remove the garden hose, prepare a drip tray (not supplied) to collect the water from the nozzle.(fig.9)3. Pump function:

a. Press the tightening ring of drainage joint, and then pull out the plug in the joint. (fig.11)

b. Insert the drain hose onto the drainage joint, make sure is connected well so that it is fully seated. (fig.12&13)

c. Place the other end of the drain hose in the location you want the water to go to a floor drain, a water container, or through a basement window to the outdoors.
