Frequently Asked Questions - DW-D20A SHARP

How often should I clean the humidifier?

It is recommended to clean the water tank and ultrasonic transducer every week to prevent mineral buildup and bacterial growth. Use a mixture of white vinegar and water or a recommended descaling solution.

What type of water should I use?

Use distilled or demineralized water to minimize white dust and prolong the life of the filter and ultrasonic plate. Tap water may be used but will require more frequent cleaning.

How do I set the desired humidity level?

Press the Humidistat button repeatedly to cycle through humidity levels from 40% to 70% in 5% increments. The unit will automatically maintain the selected level.

Why is there white dust on furniture?

White dust is caused by minerals in tap water. Switch to distilled water or install the optional demineralization filter to reduce this issue.

How do I replace the demineralization filter?

Purchase the compatible Sharp filter (model FZ-D20A). Open the filter compartment on the back of the unit, remove the old filter, and insert the new one. Refer to the manual for detailed steps.

Can I use essential oils in this humidifier?

No, this model is not designed for essential oils. Adding oils can damage the plastic and ultrasonic components and void the warranty.

The unit is not producing mist. What should I check?

First, ensure the water tank is filled and properly seated. Check if the ultrasonic transducer is clean; mineral deposits can block it. Also verify that the unit is not in auto shut-off mode due to low water.

How do I set the timer?

Press the Timer button repeatedly to set the desired run time from 1 to 12 hours in 1-hour increments. The display will show the timer countdown.

Is the humidifier safe to leave on overnight?

Yes, it is designed for continuous use with auto shut-off when the water runs out. Use the Sleep mode for quieter operation and dimmed display.

Where can I find replacement parts or service?

Contact Sharp customer support or visit their official website for spare parts. You can also check authorized service centers in your region.

FEATURES

A Powerful Dehumidifier with a High Concentration of Plasmacluster Ions for Cleaning, Quick Drying, and Deodorizing Room-dried Laundry

QUICK LAUNDRY DRYING

Quickly dry laundry with maximum air flow, and stop automatically.

LAUNDRY DRYING

ECO LAUNDRY DRYING

Effectively dry laundry by combining dehumidity and ventilation, and stop automatically.

LAUNDRY DRYING

Maintain desired humidity for a pleasant room atmosphere.

AUTO DEHUMIDIFYING

LARGE WATER TANK

Ensure plenty of dehumidification with a 4.2L tank.

Also able to continuously drain.

160° VERTICAL 90° HORIZONTAL \* AUTO LOUVER

Widely dry and dehumidify laundry with wide louvers.

* This shows the air flow range when vertical swing is set to WIDE and horizontal swing is set to ON, which is different from the lower swing range.

- The number in this technology mark refers to the approximate quantity of ions per cm³ of air released from this product which was measured at the center point (1.2 meter height above the floor) of high concentration Piasmcluster 7,000 applicable floor area room (temperature 20°C, humidity 50%) when the dehumidifier was placed against the wall and runs in laundry deodorizing mode with vertical swing "down" and horizontal swing "off".

FAQs

Will the room get warm?

Warm air will be coming out from the front air outlet, and when used in an enclosed room, the room temperature will go up.

I would like to continuously operate the unit in dehumidifying mode. Is continuous drainage possible?

Continuous drainage is possible by using a commercially available hose (inner diameter 15mm). Pages 11, 17

The water does not accumulate in the tank. Is the unit dehumidifying?

When the temperature is high, or when the temperature or humidity is low, air flow mode will operate, and the unit will not dehumidify. The water will not be collected in the tank during this time. Page 22

The sound seems too loud?

There is a sound at the start of operation/during operation/when the unit stops It is the sound of compressor operation or refrigerant (coolant) circulation. Page 23

The CURRENT HUMIDITY display seems wrong?

The CURRENT HUMIDITY display is only for reference. (The value will not necessarily be the same with other devices.) When the humidity suddenly changes immediately after the laundry dry mode starts, the display might be different from the actual humidity. When the humidity is 31% or lower, the display will show [Lo]; and 91% or above will show [Hi].

The air flow seems to get stronger on its own?

Even if the dehumidifying (Auto/Lo) operation is set, the air flow will increase automatically during the following situations: - When the room temperature is 38°C or above ..... (Air flow only) in order to lower the internal temperature. - When the room temperature is 15°C or lower ..... (Air flow only) in order to prevent frost forming inside.

Clean the inside of water tank periodically (about once a week). (Falling to clean for a long period of time may increase mold and bacteria which causes bad odor.)

If there is a place you can drain nearby, continuous drainage is possible.

CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE

Important Notices When Using Continuous Draining Operation.

• This dehumidifier is made for household use. When conducting Continuous Drainage, check for dirty filters (once every two weeks) and clogging of drain hoses periodically.
• Place the drain nose where the temperature will not fall below zero.
  (When the water in the hose freezes, the water inside the main unit may leak into the room and soak household goods)
• Put a net over the hose tip to prevent from insects coming in.
• Auto Off function will operate after 12 hours for Continuous Drainage as well. To release the Auto Off function, please read 'To cancel the Auto Off function' on (Page 11).

How to pipe the hose

Always have Do not bend the tip slanted

Do not put the hose tip into the water.

Problem	Solution	Reference Page
The room becomes hot	Warm air will come out from the air outlet during (ECO/QUICK/CONTINUOUS) laundry drying operation and dehumidifying operation, and if used in an enclosed room, the room temperature will go up.	—
The unit does not dehumidifyDehumidification amount is low (Water does not accumulate in the tank)	The dehumidification level varies with the size, structure, temperature and humidity level of the room.When room temperature or humidity level is low, the dehumidification level will be low in general.Low humidity of less than 50% cannot be maintained.Air flow mode will operate during auto dehumidifying operation when room temperature or humidity level is low, and the unit will not dehumidify.When the room temperature is below 3°C, air flow mode will operate to prevent the water tank a water from freezing, and the unit will not dehumidify.When the room temperature is higher than 38°C, the protective device will activate, the air flow mode will operate, and the unit will not dehumidify.When the room temperature is 15°C or under, the unit automatically defrosts by switching to air flow mode which makes water harder to collect.Check to see if the unit runs in laundry deodorizing operation.Switch to (ECO/QUICK/CONTINUOUS) laundry drying and dehumidifying operation.Check to see if the filter is clean.If dirty, clean the filter.Check to see if the air outlet or air inlet is blocked.Remove whatever blocks the port.	——101011—18—
