How to Use Yo ur Dehumidif ier
Choosing a Locatio n:
1. Use the dehu midifier in any enclo sed room or ar ea such as a
workshop, base ment, or living area w here you wa nt m oisture
removed. For be st results, keep all doors and w indow s
closed.
2. Good airflow is essential for dehumidifying. M ake sure there
is at least 15 cm of space be tween the rear o f the
dehumidifier and any wa ll or other obstruction such as
furniture or applian ces.
3. The dehu midifier should be in an upright posi tion and on a
level surface.
4. The dehu midifier has four ca sters for ease of move ment.
5. These dehumidifier s are built for free-standing use only and
are not designed to be built in .
Operating y our dehumidifier:
1. Check the available pow er supply against the dehu midifier
data plate to as sure correct electrical service. Plug power
cord into groun ded wa ll outlet.
2. The Humidista t Knob should be securely fitted to the
exposed ste m on the front Gr ille. The Knob i s packed in a
bag stapled aro und the pow er cord in the receptor bucket. All
models are equipp ed with an auto matic humidstat con trol
that will sw itch the dehumidifier on and off to maintain the
chosen humidi ty level. When you operate the deh umidifier
for the first time in a particular are a, set the hu midistat dial
on mid-point. Allow the dehu midifier to operate a t this setting
for two or three day s.
3. Models140lX , 220LX , 270LX are equipped w ith an automatic
system to de frost the evap orator coils. Thi s condition usually
happens during the fall, winter or spring month s when both
the room te mperature is below 18° C and the amount o f
moisture is below 60%. When the frost builds up on the coils,
a control shuts off the co mpressor but allows the fan to
continue to run. A fter the coil ha s been de frosted, the con trol
turns the co mpressor on for nor mal operation.
Disposal of water :
All models are equ ipped with a 9-1 /2 litre capaci ty water receptor
and an auto matic shut-off syste m to preven t overflow when the
receptor gets full . When the w ater in the receptor rises to a certain
level, a float sw itch shuts off the system and turn s on the red light
on the front panel . The receptor sh ould then be re moved and
emptied. You w ill notice that wh en the receptor is removed , the
system will again begin operating, unless the con trol dial ha s
been turned to the "OFF " position.
To empty the re ceptor, turn the control dial to the "OFF" position .
Take hold of the receptor with both hands and carefully slide it out.
Empty the water an d replace the receptor in the dehu midifier.
Turn the control dial to your desire d setting.
Use of the fitting on the drip tray - When you re move the water
receptor, you w ill notice tha t there is a threaded fitting on the
bottom of the drip tray. This i s made for the attach ment of a
standard garden hose that can continuously drain the water from
the drip tray into a floor drain. When you connect the hose fitting
to the drip tray, it should turn ea sily. Do not force the hose fitting
onto the drip tray as it could dama ge the thre ads. Make sure the
drain hose is below the level of the drip tray or it w ill not drain
properly . If you place the dehumidi fier directly ov er a floor drain, a
short piece of ho se is required to d irect the w ater into the drain or
it will drip on the dehu midifier fra me and splash ou t onto the floor.
Do not throw away the recep tor. You may need it to deh umidify
an area that doe s not have a floor drain.
