• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, or its service agent, or a qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

- Stadler Form refuses all liability for loss or damage that arises as a result of failure to follow these operating instructions.

• For indoor use only.
• Do not store the appliance outdoors.
• Place the dehumidifier on a firm, even, waterproof surface. Make sure it is standing securely so that the dehumidifier cannot tip over or fall down. If it tipped over, please pull out the plug at once. Water can damage furniture and floor coverings.

- Unwind the cord completely. An incompletely unwound cord can lead to overheating and cause a fire.

- Do not use an extension cord, a multiway connector, or a continuously adjustable speed controller. This can cause overheating, fire, or electric shock.

- Connect the dehumidifier only to a single-phase socket with the supply voltage as stated on the type plate.

- Always switch the dehumidifier off with the power key and always disconnect the plug from the power socket when the dehumidifier is not in use, or when it is moved, handled or cleaned. Do not tug at the cord to disconnect the plug. Do not disconnect the plug when the dehumidifier is running. Always first switch the dehumidifier off with the power key.

- The dehumidifier functions optimally at a room temperature of between 13 °C and 35 °C. The specified dehumidifying performance is only achievable in the higher temperature range (from 22 °C) and with higher room humidity (from 70 %). The lowest recommended operating temperature is 10 °C. In case of lower temperatures, the DEFROST mode is activated too frequently. The highest operating temperature is 35 °C and the relative humidity is 90 %.

- Do not use the dehumidifier anywhere near easily inflammable gases or substances, near an open fire, or at a location where oil and water could splash. Do not spray insecticides or similar substances onto the dehumidifier. Make sure that the dehumidifier is not exposed to direct sunlight. Do not use the dehumidifier in a hothouse or near a bathtub, shower or swimming pool. Do not put any hot or heavy objects on the dehumidifier.

- The air intake and air outflow vents must always be kept open during de-humidification. Make sure that no objects can get into the air intake or air outflow vents. This can lead to overheating, fire or electric shock. The de-humidifier must not be installed behind curtains, drapes or other objects and obstacles that could impair the air circulation. A safety distance of at least 50 cm from other objects must be maintained. In addition, a safety distance of at least 60 cm from wet areas such as showers, washbasins, sinks, bathtubs etc. must be maintained. A safety distance of 120 cm from the water supply, e.g. a water tap, is necessary.

- When operating to dry clothes keep the clothing at least 50 cm away from the unit and do not allow water to drip onto the unit.

- Do not remove the water tank while the dehumidifier is running. Drops of remaining water could damage furniture and floor-coverings.

- Wait for 3 – 5 minutes after switching the dehumidifier off before you switch it back on again.

- Do not immerse the dehumidifier into water or any other liquids and do not pour water or any other liquids onto the appliance or into the air intake and air outflow vents.

- Clean the dehumidifier regularly, following the cleaning instructions.

- Always transport the dehumidifier in an upright position. Before using the dehumidifier for the first time, leave it standing in an upright position for 24 hours. Always stand the dehumidifier in an upright position immediately after transporting the appliance, and wait for at least 60 minutes before switching it back on. The water tank must be emptied every time before transport.

- The dehumidifier must always be operated according to this instruction manual. Non-observance of these instructions can lead to injuries, a fire, electric shock or faults in the appliance.

• The dehumidifier is designed for private use indoors and is not intended for commercial use.
• Do not use the dehumidifier if it is faulty or could show signs of damage, or if it is not functioning correctly. Disconnect the plug from the power socket.
• The appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.

Setting up / operation

1. Place Albert little on a flat surface in the desired area. Plug the power cable (13) into an electric socket.
2. Press the on/off switch (3) to turn on the dehumidifier.
3. You can select the speed of the fan in the dehumidifier by pushing the speed level selector (5). There are 2 speed levels. If the speed is higher, the dehumidifying performance also increases.
4. With the hygrostat (4) the desired humidity level can be set (Con = continuos). A humidity level not higher than 60 % is suggested in general. If the dehumidifier reached the selected humidity it will turn off and after that check the humidity level in constant intervals by turning on the fan for a short time.
5. The swing mode (6) allows to optimally distribute the dry air in the room. This mode is also suitable for example to dry clothes fast and efficient.
6. If you find the control panel and LED too bright (in a bedroom for example), you may reduce the light intensity by pressing the night mode (7).
7. Once the water tank is full, the blinking symbol will appear on the control panel and the dehumidifier turns off automatically. Please empty the tank. Once you put back the tank, the unit will automatically restart.
8. Defrost function: If the temperature in the room is below 10° C, the dehumidifier automatically runs in defrost mode. This mode is shown on the control panel and frost build up in the unit will be avoided during dehumidification. This function will be activated every 25 minutes for a duration of 7 minutes.
9. If desired, it is possible to connect a drainage hose to the unit for permanent water drainage. In this case connect the hose (2 m) (14) to the unit through the hole in the back of the dehumidifier and place the end of the drainage in a water outlet. Please make sure the end of the hose is lower than the spout, otherwise the water will not drain and flooding may occur.
10. For easy side movement of the unit there are hidden wheels (15) attached. Empty the tank first before moving the dehumidifier.

Cleaning

Before servicing the appliance and after each occasion of use, switch off the appliance and unplug the mains cable from the socket.

• Attention: Never immerse the appliance in water (danger of short-circuit).
• To clean the appliance, only wipe it down with a damp cloth and then dry it carefully.
• In case the filter (10) at the air inlet (9) is dirty or dusty, take the filter out and remove the dirt/dust with a vacuum cleaner.

- If you don't use the dehumidifier for some time, empty the water tank and dry the unit fully before storing it in its original carton.

Repairs

• Repairs to electrical appliances must only be carried out by a qualified electrical technician. If improper repairs are carried out, the warranty lapses and all liability is refused.
• Never operate the appliance if the adaptor or plug is damaged, after it has malfunctioned, if it has been dropped or has been damaged in any other way (cracks/breaks in the casing).
• Do not push any object into the appliance.
• If the appliance is beyond repair, make it unusable immediately by cutting through the cable and hand it in at the collection point provided for the purpose.

Disposal

The European directive 2012 / 19 / CE on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimize the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the

product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.
