USING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER
De-icer control
ÀCAUTION
Product Damage Hazard
Do not operate dehumidifier at tempera­
tures below 55°F (12.8'’C).
Failure to follow the above precaution could
result in the coils icing over and the unit not
operating properly.
Your Whirlpool dehumidifier is equipped with a
feature to help you get the most comfort from
your new appliance by permitting it to operate
down to 55°F (12.8'’C). If your dehumidifier runs
when room temperature and humidity conditions
are low, frost can form on its evaporator coil. This
interferes with proper operation.
The De-icer Control senses frost build-up on
the evaporator coil and automatically shuts off the
compressor. The fan continues to run, drawing air
across the coil and melting the frost. When the
coil is defrosted, the compressor is automatically
restarted, and dehumidifying is resumed.
Adjusting the water level control lever
The Water Level Adjustment can be set in two
positions to turn off the unit automatically when
the pan is full. This prevents the danger of
overflow.
Pan must be in proper position for Water Level
Control Switch to work. The Water Level Control
Switch will automatically turn off the dehumidifier
at the fill level you selected when pan is properly
placed. Loosen the screw to move the Water
Level Control Lever. Retighten screw when
adjusted to desired setting.
