FIRST USE / OPERATION

1. Place the device on a stable and water-proof surface. Do not place directly on a carpeted or

wooden floor. Important: to ensure that the compressor has not sustained any damage after transportation of the device, wait at least an hour before operation. This allows the coolant/ lubricant to settle again and avoids damage to the compressor (no warranty).

2. Check whether there is any packing material in the water tank. Pull out both of the opening

flaps (13) on the water tank (snap into place). If there is no packaging material in the tank, slide the tank back into place (it should snap into position).

3. Plug in the power plug (all LEDs will light up red briefly).

the air outlet flaps will open and the fan and compressors will start. Press the button again to switch off the device. Good to know: – If the dehumidifier has been turned off shortly beforehand, the compressor will start with up to 3 minutes’ delay (= protective function

– If «WATER FULL» is lit up, the water tank is full and needs to be emptied à see page «17». The compressor will remain switched off until the emptied tank is reinserted. – The device must not be connected to a timer or switched socket/cable connector (dan- ger of damage to compressor). – «DEFROST» Defros process started à see page «17».

Other displays / available settings: – «SPEED»: Changing of air volume - low «1»/high «2». After switching on, the device will operate with a high output («2» will light up). – «TIMER»: Device switches on or off automatically after 1, 2, 4 or 8 hours. – «HUMID»: Set humidity. After switching on, the device will operate on continuous opera- tion («CONTINUE»). This is useful with a very high humidity level or to dehumidify the room as quickly as possible. If the room in question is in frequent use, the «50 %» relative hu- midity setting is recommended. Once the required level of humidity has been reached, the compressor will switch off until the humidity level increases again. The fan will continue to operate so that the humidity can be measured.

«WATER FULL» = Water tank is full: – Bei When the water tank is full, the compressor will switch off and «WATER FULL» will light up. – Remove water tank: Pull out the two opening flaps (13) on the reverse of the tank. Hold these and pull the tank out. Pull up the blue carry handle to carry the tank comfortably then empty down the sink. The white lid on top does not need to be removed to empty the tank. – Reset water tank: Reposition water tank until it snaps into place. «WATER FULL» will dis- appear and the compressor will start again. – Good to know: Do not use the water for other purposes because it also contains dirt particles from the air. Wash the inside of the tank with warm water and a normal detergent at least once a month for hygiene reasons. First, remove the white tank lid (22) (hold the front edge of the lid, swivel up slightly and then pull away from yourself). Do not place the tank or lid in a dishwasher or clean with an abrasive agent otherwise the parts may become damaged.

8. Water outlet pipe:

– When the device is situated in a room with a wastewater drainage system in the ground, the water can be channelled here directly. The tank will then not be filled and will no longer need to be emptied. A tube will be required for this (not included). This should have an in- ternal/external diameter of 8/10 mm. – Remove the rubber cover from the connector pipe (10) and then place the tube over the pipe. – Good to know: The tube must be positioned such that it lies level. It should not be angled upwards be- cause this will stop the water from draining away.

9. Automatische Automatic defrosting:

– The «DEFROST» display will light up when the temperature of the evaporator reaches ap- prox. –1 °C and has formed a layer of ice. This may be the case after approx. 20 minutes of continuous operation or at lower room temperatures. The compressor will then switch off and the defrosting process begins. The fan will continue to operate and the water from defrosting will be channelled directly into the water tank. If the ice on the evaporator is melted within 5 minutes, the compressor will start again automatically and «DEFROST» will light up. If not, the device will switch off after 20 minutes (= compressor protective function).

10. Protective circuits:

– Your dehumidifier will be monitored constantly by a protective circuit. This will automatical- ly switch off the compressor in the event of any malfunction. This prevents the compres- sor from being directly switched on again and overloaded after being switched off. It will only be switched back on after 1-3 minutes. – The protective circuit also monitors the temperature of the device; if this falls below 0 °C or rises above 40 °C, the device will switch off or will be unable to operate. The device can only start to operate again when the temperature falls within the specified range and the power plug is removed and re-inserted (= «Re-set»). – After a power cut, the device will switch back on using the previous settings. Important: For safety reasons, the device cannot be switched on or off with a timer, switched socket etc. (compressor may become damaged)!

– The integrated hygrostat constantly measures the humidity and manages the dehumidifi- cation process. – Good to know: The standard tolerances of an integrated hygrostat are +/- 5%. This means that the ef- fective relative humidity will fluctuate accordingly.

TROUBLE-SHOOTING «Water Full» lit up Water tank is full; empty tank à page 17. «Water Full» light on Water tank is not properly in place à slide tank in fully (must snap into place and sit flush with the sides). Compressor protective circuit is still active. It can take 3 minutes for the compressor to switch back on (and for the display to turn off). Device off and none of the buttons working The room temperature is too low (below 0 °C) or too high (over 40 °C) à page 17. If the device does not react after warming or cooling of the room, remove the plug for a few seconds and then re-insert (= «Reset»). «DEFROST» lit up and compressor not working Device needs to be defrosted à page 17. Water tank leaking Water droplets can escape when the tank is inserted/removed. However if the tank actually is leaking, it will need to be replaced. Never drop the tank or place it in a dishwasher because it may become damaged. CLEANING PROCEDURE Switch off the device and unplug the power cable from the socket before all maintenance work and after each use. Never submerge the device in water (this can result in short-circuiting/ electric shock). To clean the device, simply wipe it with a damp cloth and then dry it thoroughly. Always ensure the power cable has been unplugged beforehand. The cover (18) and air filter (17) on the reverse can be removed to enable easier cleaning: Remove cover: pull down one of the side opening flaps (19) and remove the cover (18). Remove air filter: unhook one of the two side mounting brackets (16) by pressing it in gently. Then remove the filter by pulling backwards. Remove fluff with a brush or vacuum with a brush attachment. Do not press on the filter (it may tear). Clean any plastic components with a damp cloth. Re-insert the components in reverse order: re-attach the filter to the case using the mounting bracket. Gently press the flap on the other side in the middle so that it can be attached to the case (should snap into place). Attach the cover to the device from the back until all four fastening tabs have snapped into place (do not use force; cover may be upside down and therefore may not fit). Never use the device without a filter or cover! Empty the water tank daily. Wash the inside of the tank with warm water and a normal detergent at least once a month for hygiene reasons. First, remove the white tank lid (22) (hold the front edge of the lid, swivel up slightly and then pull away from yourself). Do not place the tank or lid in a dishwasher or clean with an abrasive agent otherwise the parts may become damaged. STORAGE Unplug when not using the device for a long period of time (e.g. while on holiday). Empty the water tank and leave to dry along with the device for 1-2 days (to enable condensation inside to evaporate and ensure that the device is completely dry). Then store the device in a dry and dust-free location. Tip: Retain the packaging to store the device.
