 11 ■ SLE 200 B2 Using the appliance Before initial use ♦ Place the appliance on a flat, dry and solid surface. ♦ Allow the appliance to remain in the usage position for approx. 30 minutes so that the coolant can settle. ♦ Check that the water tank 4 is correctly inserted. ♦ Insert the plug w into a mains power socket. Electrical connection ATTENTION! ► Before connecting the appliance, compare the specifications for the required input voltage on the rating plate with the intended voltage source for opera- tion. This data must agree so that the appliance is not damaged. ► The power cable w must always be easily accessible, so that the appliance can be quickly removed from the mains in the event of an emergency. ► Check whether the power cable w is undamaged and that it is not routed over hot surfaces and/or sharp edges, otherwise it will become damaged. ► Ensure that the power cable w is not taut or kinked. Guidelines for operation ■ If the air in your living spaces is constantly excessively humid, the cause should be identified and addressed. (Sustained - year-round - dehumidifying is generally not a good idea.) ■ The optimal ambient temperature for dehumidifying the air is 5°C to 32°C. Using a dehumidifier at temperatures below 5°C is redundant, as there is little humidity in the air. ■ During operation, room temperature can increase by between 1°C and 4°C, depending on the size of the room. This is normal. Automatic defrosting To ensure that the appliance does not ice up during sustained operation, it defrosts automatically. The defrosting function is activated automatically and cannot be switched on manually. The appliance cannot be switched off during defrosting. During defrosting, the

u lights up. The lower the ambient temperature at which the appliance is operated, the earlier or more often the automatic defrosting is activated. Once the defrosting process is complete, the appliance resumes operation in the previous selected settings.■ 12 

SLE 200 B2 Protection against overheating The appliance has an overheating protection. It switches off automatically if there is a risk of overheating and switches back on once the appliance has fully cooled down. The appliance cannot be used during the cool-down phase. ♦ Check whether external conditions may have triggered the overheating protection (e.g. temperatures above 32°C or a blockage to the air outlet 8). Assembly WARNING! ► Do not connect the appliance to a power socket during assembly. ♦ Lay the appliance flat on its side on the floor. ♦ Press the castors 6 into the four holes on the bottom of the appliance until they fully click into place (see fig. 1). MAX Fig. 1 ♦ Place the appliance on the castors 6 after fitting them. Transport ATTENTION! ► Never pull the appliance by the power cable w when transporting it on its castors 6. ► Use the castors 6 only on even surfaces. Do not roll the appliance over shag-pile carpets (e.g. flokati, tufted). These could block the castors 6

♦ Use the castors 6 to move the appliance over even surfaces. ♦ Always hold the appliance by the carrying handle 7 when transporting it.GB

You will hear a beep and the DEHUMIDIFICATION LED r or the DRY LAUNDRY LED t lights up permanently. ♦ Press the STANDBY button s to switch off the appliance. You will hear a beep and the DEHUMIDIFICATION LED r or the DRY LAUNDRY LED t goes out. Note ► The appliance always starts up with the last-selected setting. ► If the appliance shuts down due to a power failure, it will automatically restart with the last–selected setting when power is restored. ♦ If a timer has been programmed, the appliance switches off permanently after the specified time has elapsed (1–24 hours). ♦ If the relative humidity value has been set in the DEHUMIDIFICATION program, the appliance switches off as soon as the value is reached. If the value is exceeded, the appliance switches back on again. ♦ When the water tank 4 is full or removed, dehumidification stops. The fan continues to run for approx. 3 minutes and then switches off. If the water tank 4 has been removed or is not correctly inserted, the

o lights up. If switched on, the appliance will also beep for approx. 20 seconds. Note ► The water tank 4 must be completely inserted into the appliance, otherwise the condensation water cannot be properly collected.■ 14 

SLE 200 B2 Operating status displays The different operating states are shown on the control panel 1 via LEDs and the display p: LED indicators LED lit Meaning WATER TANK FULL o The water tank 4 is full or not inserted. TIMER i A switch-off time has been activated. DEHUMIDIFICATION

Shows the selected programme. AUTO DE-ICING u Automatic defrosting is activated. Display indicator Display Meaning During operation, the current relative humidity value is permanently displayed in %. Note ► Note that the values for the relative humidity have a tolerance of approx. ± 3 %, and switching on the appliance or dehumidification may be slightly delayed. Selecting programmes The appliance has two distinct programmes: DEHUMIDIFICATION DRY LAUNDRY ♦ Press the MODE button e repeatedly to select the desired programme. The DEHUMIDIFICATION LED r or the DRY LAUNDRY LED t lights up.GB

 15 ■ SLE 200 B2 DEHUMIDIFICATION This programme offers you the option of setting the desired air humidity level that should be achieved yourself. ♦ Press the UP button a or the DOWN button z to set the desired humidity in 5% steps between 30% and 80%. The set value flashes on the display p for approx. 5 seconds and then the current relative humidity value is shown again. Additionally, you also have the option to select the setting if you want to make a setting below 30% relative humidity. This setting allows you to achieve a very low humidity as the dehumidification runs permanently. Note ► The minimum humidity that can be achieved in mode is dependent on many factors, such as the room size or the ambient temperature, etc. Therefore, it is not possible to define a generally applicable minimum value. DRY LAUNDRY You can use this programme to dry damp laundry or textiles faster. Turn the appliance so that the air flow from the air outlet 8 is directed towards the garments you want to dry. Changes in the desired humidity are not possible in this programme. Timer function The appliance is equipped with a timer function that can be activated for both programmes. One of 24 switch-off times, ranging from 1 to 24 hours, can be selected. Once the set time has elapsed, the appliance switches off permanently. ♦ While the appliance is running, press the UP button a and the DOWN button z at the same time. The TIMER LED i lights up, and flashes on the display p. ♦ Press the UP button a or the DOWN button z to set a switch-off time from 1 to 24 hours. The selected switch-off time flashes on the displayp for approx. 5 seconds and then the current relative humidity value is displayed again. ♦ To stop the timer prematurely, press the UP button a and the DOWN button z at the same time again. Then press the UP button a or the DOWN button z to set the timer to . After around 5 seconds, the TIMER LED i goes out and the display p shows the current relative humidity value.■ 16 

SLE 200 B2 Emptying the water tank The water tank 4 has a capacity of approx. 2.1 litres. The water level can be checked by means of the fill level indicator 5. The appliance can only be operated with the water tank 4 inserted. When the water tank4 is full, the

o lights up. In addition, the appliance will also beep for approx. 20 seconds. The dehumidification stops; the fan continues to run for approx. 3 minutes and then switches itself off. ♦ Carefully pull the water tank 4 out of the appliance using the recessed grips on the side (see figure 2). MAX Fig. 2 ♦ Empty the water tank 4 into a sink (see figure 3) and replace the water tank 4 in the appliance. The appliance resumes operation with the previ- ously selected programme. Fig. 3GB

 17 ■ SLE 200 B2 Hose drainage In very humid rooms, it often makes more sense to drain off the water directly via a hose rather than collect it in the water tank 4 . You can use the supplied hosed or the EU garden hose adapter f to set up a permanent drainage outlet. ATTENTION! ► When draining via the hose, the appliance runs continuously. When draining via the hose, make sure that it is not kinked and that it runs downwards along the entire length. Otherwise, the water may flow back into the appliance and damage it. ► Check the entire connection system regularly for leaks. ♦ Remove the stoppers 9 from the water outlet opening 0. ♦ Connect either the supplied hose d or the EU garden hose adapter f to the water outlet opening 0 (see figures 4 and 5). ♦ When using the EU garden hose adapter f, screw a garden hose onto the EU garden hose adapter f (see figure 5). Fig. 4 Fig. 5 ATTENTION! ► Screw the EU garden hose adapter f hand-tight only. Do not use a wrench as this may damage the EU garden hose adapter f. Note ► Depending on the garden hose system you use, you may need an additional adapter. These are available from specialist stores. ♦ Set up the appliance so that the end of the hose is positioned over a drain. The open end of the hose must lie below the water outlet opening 0 of the appliance (i.e. the hose must have a downwards gradient).■ 18 

SLE 200 B2 Cleaning Cleaning the appliance ATTENTION! ► Do not allow any liquids or moisture to get into the appliance. ► To avoid irreparable damage to the appliance, never immerse it in water. ► Always remove the mains plug w from the mains power socket before cleaning the appliance. ► Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents, as these may corrode the surface of the casing. ► Do not clean the water tank 4 in the dishwasher. Otherwise, it will be damaged. ♦ If required, wipe the casing with a slightly damp cloth. ♦ Remove the water tank 4 and pour the water into a sink. Dry the water tank 4 well inside and outside before replacing it in the appliance. ♦ We recommend cleaning the water tank 4 regularly (every two weeks) to prevent mould and bacteria. Fill the water tank 4 with lukewarm water and add a commercially available detergent. Rinse repeatedly with lukewarm water. We also recommend disinfection following cleaning. To do this, use a standard commercial, alcohol-based disinfecting agent or high-proof alcohol. Both substances are completely harmless if rinsed repeatedly with lukewarm water afterwards. ♦ Remove any accumulations of dust on the air inlet grille 2 and the air outlet grille 8 with a paintbrush, soft brush or a vacuum cleaner.GB

 19 ■ SLE 200 B2 Cleaning the filter The performance of the appliance also depends upon how clean the filter is. The air filter 3 should be cleaned every 2 weeks. ♦ The air filter 3 is located behind the air inlet grille 2. Take hold of the grip edge of air filter 3 with your fingers and pull it upwards out of the appliance (see figure 6). MAX Fig. 6 ♦ Vacuum the air filter 3 or clean it with a soft brush. If the air filter 3 is very dirty, wash it in lukewarm water. ♦ Allow the air filter 3 to dry out completely before replacing it in the appliance. Storage ♦ Remove the plug w from the mains power socket. ♦ Wind the power cable w around the cable retainer q on the rear of the appliance. ♦ Empty the water tank 4 if you are not going to use the appliance for a long time. ♦ Always store the appliance in an upright position and in a dry and dust-free environment without direct sunlight.■ 20
