When you push the button to change operation modes,
the unit will make a beep sound to indicate it received the command.
Pump Operation (Models with built-in pump only)
Press to activate pump operation. (See. Fig. 1)
NOTE: Ensure the pump drain hose is installed
onto the unit, the continuous drain hose is removed and plug
is reinstalled before the pump operation is activated. When
the bucket is full,the pump starts to work. Do not use the
pump feature when the outdoor temperature is equal to or
less than (32°F) 0°C.
Continuous Dehumidifying Operation
For models with out built-in pump, continuous operation
is activated by pressing the CONT. button on the control
panel. (See. Fig. 1).This allows the dehumidifier to run
continuously at 35% RH (relative humidity) without cycling
the compressor and fan on and off when the desired
humidity set point is achieved. By continuously running
the fan and compressor, constant dehumidification occurs,
which achieves the maximum moisture removal from the air.
Filter
The check filter feature is a reminder to clean the Air Filter
for more efficient operation. The Filter light (clean filter light)
will illuminate after 250 hours of operation to remind you to
clean the filter. After cleaning the filter, press the Filter pad
and the light will go off.
Fan
Controls the fan speed. Press to select Turbo or Normal fan
speed. Set the fan control to Turbo for maximum moisture
removal. When the humidity has been reduced or quieter
operation is preferred, set the fan speed to Normal. For
models without pumps, the Turbo or Normal indicator lights
will display for the corresponding fan speed. For models
with built in pump, the Turbo indicator light will display when
Turbo fan speed is selected. The Turbo indicator light will
be off when the fan is in Normal mode. There is an audible
difference between Turbo and Normal speeds.
