MAIN FUNCTIONS

⑭ "SPEED" BUTTON: By pressing this button several times, you can adjust the air flow produced by the appliance, selecting one of the three modes: LOW (low air flow), MED (medium air flow) or HIGH (strong air flow).
E "TIMER" BUTTON: By pressing this button several times, you can select the operating time: 2 hours, 4 hours or 8 hours. By pressing it one more time, you can cancel the Timer function and choose to let the appliance work continuously.
F "HUMIDITY" BUTTON: By pressing this button several times, you can choose the humidity rate between three options: HygroSmart®, 60% or 70%.

• The HygroSmart ^ function (©) enables you to maintain an ideal humidity rate in the air (between 40% and 60%). The indicator light flashes if the humidity level in the ambient air is already below 40%.
• Adjust the appliance on 60% if you want to use it in a cellar.
• Adjust the appliance on 70% if you want to use it in a wine cellar.

When the ambient air humidity is lower than the set humidity level, the appliance stops dehumidifying, but its fan continues to operate. If the ambient humidity is higher than the sethumidity level, the appliance automatically restarts dehumidifying.

It is possible to combine these three modes at the same time: choice of speed, choice of dehumidification time and choice of humidity rate.

⑧ "CLOTHES DRYER" BUTTON: By pressing this button, the appliance works at maximum speed. It is possible to adjust the Timer and to define the desired humidity rate but it is not possible to adjust the speed.

If you do not adjust the Timer, the appliance will work for 10 consecutive hours, will stop half an hour to avoid overheating and then will automatically restart.

① "MOVABLE FLAP" BUTTON: Thanks to this button, you can control the switching on and the stop of the movable flap. By pressing this button, the flap opens automatically. You can adjust the opening angle of the flap by pressing it a second time. The movable flap can be opened up to an angle of 90°.

EMPTYING THE TANK (SEE PAGE 3)

The appliance automatically stops working once the tank is full and the "Full" indicator (©) lights. If you had set the Timer, the appliance retains the remaining operating time. After having emptied the tank, the appliance resumes the current program.

① Turn the appliance off and pull the tank.
② Unclip the water tank lid.
③ Empty the condensates.
④ Replace the tank lid and then replace the tank. Then, press the ON/OFF button and choose the desired operating mode.

The dehumidifier is equipped with a tank positioning sensor. As a matter of security, the product turns off if the tank is missing or not properly placed and the "Power" and "Full" indicators light.

CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE (SEE PAGE 3)

Thanks to the continuous drainage hose, the appliance will work independently without having to empty the tank. Make sure the hose is not bent and that it is placed on a downward slope so that water can easily drain away. Do not modify or extend the drainage hose. Make sure that the tank is completely empty.

1. Turn the appliance off, remove the tank, and then remove the plastic cap from the hole for the continuous drainage hose (①).
2. Pass the hose through the opening provided for this purpose and connect the drainage hose to the water outlet opening (②).
3. Reposition the tank.
