Frequently Asked Questions - 6100 EBAC

How do I set the smart control on my Ebac 6100?

The smart control has four settings: Auto Economy (one green light), Auto (two green lights), Continuous (three green lights), and Off (no lights). Press the mode button to cycle through them. We recommend Auto for normal operation.

What does the boost control do?

Boost control increases fan speed and operating mode to maximum for 8 hours, useful for high humidity like drying laundry or after bathing. After 8 hours, it returns to previous settings.

How do I empty the water container?

Open the water container access door, remove the container, empty it, then replace it with the outlet on the left side and close the door. The unit will turn off while container is removed.

How often should I clean the filter?

Inspect the filter every 4 weeks and clean with a vacuum cleaner on low power. Replace the filter every 3 months to maintain performance.

Why is the red light flashing and the alarm beeping?

The red light flashing indicates the container is nearly full. When it's full, the light stays on and the alarm beeps every minute (if activated). Empty the container promptly.

Can I use the dehumidifier continuously without emptying?

Yes, with the optional permanent drainage kit. Order the kit and follow its instructions for setup.

How do I activate the audible alarm?

Press and hold the MODE button for 5 seconds until you hear a beep. To deactivate, repeat the same process.

What should I do if the unit is not collecting water?

Check if the smart control is set too low (economy), if the container is full, if unit is in standby, or if container is not fitted. Also ensure the filter is clean and the unit is placed upright and away from heat sources.

How do I move the dehumidifier to another room?

First, switch off the unit and wait 1 minute for the pump to empty the internal reservoir. Then empty the removable container. Keep the unit upright when moving.

What are the recommended placement guidelines?

Place the unit at least 2 meters away from heat sources. Keep internal doors ajar for air circulation and external doors/windows closed. For best results, place in cooler areas like hallways or landings.

Introduction

The first time you plug in your new I has dehumidifier, you'll begin to realize the difference it will make to your home. You'll be amazed at just how much water this quiet, get powerful unit extracts and stores in its container. It'll get you thinking where it all comes from and where it's been going all those years.

Incredibly, the average family produces 20 pints/12 litres of moisture a day. However, that's one fact you needn't worry about now.

Your I can dehumidifier is designed to cope with everything you do that adds even more moisture to the British climate. Everything from showering to washing up boiling a kettle to breathing—they all add moisture to the air.

This brochure will help you get the very best out of your Ebac and not only protect your home from the damaging effects of condensation and clamp, but also improve the quality of your air.

It's surprising what an Ebac can do for your home

There's a lot more to your I bar dehumidifier than preventing damp and condensation damage. It could actually improve your health.

Damp conditions provide the ideal breeding ground for dust mites. So, if you suffer from an allergy or asthma aggravated by dust mites, lower humidity levels may help. Also, sufferers of arthritis, bronchitis and rheumatism may also find relief from drier, warmer air.

Economy wise, your Elac dehumidifier costs typically 2p an hour to run. It can even lower your heating bills, as moist air absorbs heat. This is then removed and channelled back into the atmosphere to raise temperatures by up to 3°C. Plus, being light and portable, every room in the house can benefit too.

Important

Your Ebac 6000 is packed in a plastic wrapping, please ensure that it is a speed of safely and where it will not be a danger to children.

Getting the most from your Ebac

1. Ensure it is always connected to the mains.
2. Ensure internal doors are kept ajar where possible to allow air circulation
3. Ensure external doors and windows are kept closed as much as possible. It's also saves washing heat from your home.

Getting the most from your Ebac

Moisture migrates around a home eventually condensing on the coldest surface. If the coldest surface is a window it will become coated in condensation. Cola walls may be affected by dampness and mould spots. Slightly cooler areas such as the valleys or landing are excellent projections for your doilylifed. If possible cave interior doors partly open. If an area is particularly badly affected the dustrumbilifer can be paced in this room to concentrate the effect. DO NOT place next to a red odor or other neat source, as this will reduce the performance, the recommended distance from there is 2 meters.

Positioning your Ebac 6000

1. Stand your Fear 6000 upright for at least 7 hours
2. Connect the power lead
3. Flug in & switch on

CONTROL PANEL

1. on speed
2. Fan only /A cleaning mode
3. Boost control
4. Smart control button & indicators
5. Blue = Power on indicator, Red = container full indicator, will flash red when nearly full

Setting the controls

Smart Control

Your Ebox 6000 is fitted with a unique patented intelligent control system which learns about your home and the weather conditions, the unit will then automatically decide when it needs to operate

Smart control options.

1. Auto Economy (indicated by one green light illuminates)
2. Auto (indicated by two green lights illuminated)
3. Continuous (indicated by all three lights illuminated)
4. Off (no lights illuminated)

We recommend the unit be set to Auto for normally operation, however, there may be times when Continuous may be needed e.g. (1) when using a dichumidifier for the first time, (2) if conditions have worsened due to exceptional weather, or (3) where moisture generation in the home increases for z substantial period. Smart Control will normally adjust to points (2) and (3) however, you may wish to select Continuous to speed up the process.

Alternatively you may find that there are times when you can reduce the setting to Auto Economy which still works using Smart Control but as a reduced level, therefore running are often individual requirements will donate on.

Setting the controls Emptying the water container

Boost Control

Fear 6000 models have a boost control that increases performance of the unit in damp conditions. When arrested this increases the fan speed and operating mode to maximum for eight hours. This is particularly useful for periods of high humidity such as drying laundry indoors or just after bathing. After this time the unit will return to the settings you had prior to activation.

Fan only / Air cleaning mode

Ebara S009 models are fitted with a fan only or cleaning option. Select this mode if you want the fan to run all the time without the dehumidiner opening. This is particularly useful during the summer to provide a fan facility, and for air filtration.

Audible container full alarm

Your Exa, 6000 is fixed with an acute alarm which beeps approximately every minute once the container is full. This can be activated by pressing down the MODE button for 5 seconds until a beep is heard. You can do activate this at any time by again pressing down the MODE button for 5 seconds until a beep is heard.

Fan speed control

You may wish to change the fan speed of your Ebac from time to time. Using the Normal setting will remove more moisture from the air compared to the Quier setting thereby improving efficiency. When switched on your dehumidither will default to Normal.

Setting Function

Light not illuminated Normal setting

Light illuminated Quiet setting

Your Ebo 6000 will collect excess moisture either as condensed water or ice on the next exchanger located inside the unit. Any accumulation of ice is cleared periodically. Your Ebo 6000 incorporates a Defrost System which selects the correct defect mode for your home. This maximises the efficiency of the unit at temperatures between 3^ / 37^ and 35^ / 95^ .

A red light on the control panel will illuminate when the container is full, an audible alarm will also sound (if activated). When this container was collected stops. When nearly full the indicator will flash a few hours before the container still and again the audible alarm will sound. It is advisable to employ the water container if the unit will be unbounded for more than a few hours to ensure the container doesn't become full and the unit switch off which you are away. Once full the unit will remain off until the container has been emptied and replaced.

To empty open the water container access door

The container can then be removed and emptied as shown
Replace the container back into the dehumidifier with the outlet on the left hand side and gently close the access door. The dehumidifier will also switch itself off while the container is removed.

Cleaning the filter

Your Ebox 6000 has a filter system to remove dust from the air. This requires cleaning and we recommend that the filter(s) be inspected every 4 weeks. Failure to do so will reduce the efficiency of your Ebox 6000. To clear, proceed as follows:

Remove the filter(s) by removing the filter covers

Remove the filter and clean with a vacuum cleaner on a low power. To rent, place the filter material back into the holder(s) and replace onto the unit.

To ensure continued performance from your Ebas 6000 line filter should be changed every 3 months.

Re-locating your Dehumidifier

NOTE: The 6000 series has an internal reservoir which is periodically emptied into the removable containers. If you plan to move the unit or switch off for a long period of time please do the following to employ the internal reservoir.

1. Switch the unit to the Off position. See "Smart Control options".
   2 Wait for 1 minute to allow the pump to empty the internal tank.
2. Empty the removable water container.

A very small amount of water may remain inside which will normally evaporate naturally.

We therefore recommend that the unit be kept upright if moved soon after completing this procedure.

Using the permanent draining facility

The Eboc 6000 range can be used in unattended dwellings such as holiday homes without emptying the water container. To use this facility you must order a permanent drainage kit using the accessory order form. Details of how to set up the drainage facility can be found in the drainage kit instructions.

Caring for your Ebac 6000

Your Ebox \$000 requires very little maintenance, however to maximise performance, inspect the filter every four weeks cleaning if required.

If your 6000 was a wood panel on the front, this is real wood veneer. Due to the neutral properties of wood the grain/pattern will vary from unit to unit. To clean the wood panel it is recommended that you clean it with warm soapy water

Never use solvents or abrasive cleaners to clean your Ebac 6000.
