Empty the water tank and install it correctly. Is the water tank installed correctly? Please check the position of the water tank. Are the air outlet slats open? Please open the air outlet slats. The unit is in defrost mode. This is a normal process and helps to protect internal parts. Once the process is complete, the unit returns to normal operation. The dehumidification performance is insufficient

Is the air inlet or outlet blocked? Check the air inlet and outlet and remove any obstructing objects Is the air filter dirty? Clean the air filter as described in the operating instructions Does the unit operate in the fan mode? Please switch to dehumidification mode.

Is the room temperature/humidity too low high? The unit should be operated at the air temperature of 5°C - 32°C and a humidity of 10%-90%. The unit cannot dehumidify the air optimally at ambient temperature and/or humidity level below/above this. Humidity does not drop Is the room size too large? Please observe the recommended room size indicated on the packaging. Are all windows and doors in the room closed? Please close all doors and windows if necessary.

Loud noises during start-

Does the unit stand upright on the stable surface? Please check the position of the unit. The circulation of the refrigerant inside may cause noise. The noises disappear as soon as the refrigerant circuit has stabilised. Unpleasant smells during start-up. This is not a defect. Unpleasant smells during start up are normal and will disappear after a short time. If the surrounding objects are heavily soiled, e.g. by cigarette smoke, this can also lead to unpleasant smells from the air outlet. The start-up is interrupted. Is the room temperature higher than the operating temperature? The unit restarts automatically as soon as the ambient temperature has dropped. The clothes do not get dry. Is the laundry too far away from the unit? Please make sure the laundry is exposed to the air flow. Is the room temperature lower than the operating temperature? The laundry dries more slowly when the ambient temperature is low. Try drying your laundry in another room.There is water in the water tank (before the first start-up). This is not a defect. Some water may remain after the factory function test has been carried out. Refrigerant (CE) N 842/2006: This dehumidifier contains the refrigerant R290. The amount of refrigerant is less than 1kg and is in a closed cooling circuit. The coolant does have zero ozone depletion potential, but is a so-called greenhouse gases under the Kyoto Protocol and may thus contribute to global warming, if it is released to the atmosphere. Therefore, only trained technicians with refrigerant certificate make a filling or emptying. Suntec your dehumidifier does not have to use if used properly and undamaged coolant circuit can be refilled with refrigerant. R290, GWP: 3, 55g = 0.000165t CO2e
