Frequently Asked Questions - D-60ES MAGNAVOX

How do I set the desired humidity level?

Press the Humidity Set button repeatedly until the desired percentage (20-80%) appears on the display. The unit will maintain that level.

How do I empty the water bucket?

When the bucket is full, the unit will beep and the Full indicator lights up. Gently pull out the bucket from the front, empty it, and reinsert it securely.

Can I use a continuous drain hose?

Yes. Connect a standard garden hose (3/4 inch) to the drain outlet at the back of the unit. Ensure the hose slopes downward for proper drainage.

Why is my dehumidifier not collecting water?

Check if the room humidity is already below the set level, or if the air filter is clogged. Also ensure the room temperature is above 41°F (5°C).

How often should I clean the air filter?

Clean the filter every 30 days under normal use. Remove the filter, wash with warm water, dry completely, and reinstall.

What does the 'Defrost' indicator mean?

The unit automatically enters defrost mode when frost builds up on the coils. The fan will run but the compressor stops until frost melts. This is normal.

Can I operate the dehumidifier in a basement?

Yes, the D-60ES is suitable for basements. Ensure proper clearance around the unit for air intake and exhaust.

How do I set the timer?

Press the Timer button repeatedly to set the number of hours (1-24) for the unit to run before automatically shutting off.

What should I do if the unit shows an error code?

Refer to the manual for error codes. Common issues include full bucket or low ambient temperature. Turn off and unplug for 10 minutes, then restart.

How do I clean the exterior?

Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or spray water directly on the controls.

UNIT OPERATION

Placing the unit

A dehumidifier operating in a basement will have little or no effect in drying an adjacent enclosed storage area, such as a closet, unless there is adequate circulation of air in and out of the area.

• Do not use outdoors.
• This dehumidifier is intended for indoor residential applications only. This dehumidifier should not be used for commercial or industrial applications.
• Place the dehumidifier on a smooth, level floor strong enough to support the unit with a full bucket of water.
• Allow at least 7.9 in. of air space on all sides of the unit for good air circulation.
• Place the unit in an area where the temperature will not fall below 5°C(41°F). The coils can become covered with frost at temperatures below 5°C(41°F), which may reduce performance.
• Place the unit away from the clothes dryer, heater or radiator.
• Use the unit to prevent moisture damage anywhere books or valuables are stored.
• Use the dehumidifier in a basement to help prevent moisture damage.
• The dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective.
• Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.

When using the unit

• When first using the dehumidifier, operate the unit continuously for 24 hours.
• This unit is designed to operate in a working environment between 5 °C/21 F and 35 C/95 F
• If the unit has been switched off and needs to be switched on again, allow approximately three minutes for the unit to resume normally.
• Do not connect the dehumidifier to a multiple socket outlet, which is also being used for other electrical appliances.
• Select a suitable location, making sure you have easy access to an electrical outlet.
• Plug the unit into a electrical socket-outlet with a grounded connection.
• Make sure the Water bucket is correctly fitted otherwise the unit will not operate properly.

NOTE: When the water in the bucket reaches a certain level, please be careful to move the machine to avoid the unit from tipping over.

Fig.4a

Casters wheels(on the bottom of unit)
- Casters wheels can move freely. - Do not force casters to move over carpet, nor move the unit with water in the bucket. (The unit may tip over and spill water.)

UNIT OPERATION

Removing the collected water

There are two ways to remove collected water. 1. Use the bucket

• When the unit is off, if the bucket is full, the unit will beep 8 times and the Full indicator light will flash, the digital display shows P2.
• When the unit is on, if the bucket is full, the compressor turns off and the fan turns off after 30 seconds for drying the water of the condenser, then the unit will beep 8 times and the Full indicator light will flash, the digital display shows P2.
• Slowly pull out the bucket. Grip the left and right handles securely, and carefully pull out straight so water does not spill. Do not put the tank on the floor because the bottom of the bucket is uneven. Otherwise the bucket will fall and cause the water to spill.
• Throw away the water and replace the bucket. The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.
• The machine will re-start when the bucket is restored in its correct position.

NOTES:

• When you remove the bucket, do not touch any parts inside of the unit. Doing so may damage the product.
• Be sure to push the bucket gently all the way into the unit. Banging the bucket against anything or failing to push it in securely may cause the unit not to operate.
• When you remove the bucket, if there is some water in the unit you must dry it.

2. Continuous draining

Water can be automatically emptied into a floor drain by attaching the unit with a water hose (Id≥Φ5/16, not included)) with a female threaded end (ID:M=1," not included).
- Install the drain hose onto the adaptor A (See Fig.7, placed in the bucket).
- Remove the plastic cover from the back drain outlet of the unit and set aside and remove bucket, then insert the drain hose through the drain outlet of the unit and securely press it into the connector on the front of the unit.(See.Fig.9)
- Tighten the adaptor A and the unit by using two screws (placed in the bucket).
- Install the female threaded end of the water hose into the adaptor A.(See.Fig.10), then lead the water hose to the floor drain or a suitable drainage facility.
- Make sure the hose is secure so there are no leaks. - Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will stop the water flowing.
- Place the end of the hose into the drain and make sure the end of the hose is level or down to let the water flow smoothly. Do not stop the flow.
- Place the bucket back in the unit and make sure that it is placed correctly.
- Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed on the unit for continuous draining to start.

1. Pull out the bucket a little.
   

2. Hold both sides of the bucket with even strength and pull it out from the unit.
   
   Fig.6

3. Pour the water out.
   

NOTE: When the continuous drain feature is not being used, remove the drain hose from the outlet.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS

Care and cleaning of the dehumidifier Turn the dehumidifier off and remove the plug from the wall outlet before cleaning.

1. Clean the Grille and Case

- Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or abrasives.

- Do not splash water directly onto the main unit. Doing so may cause an electrical shock, cause the insulation to deteriorate, or cause the unit to rust.

- The air intake and outlet grilles get soiled easily, so use a vacuum attachment or brush to clean.

2. Clean the bucket

Every few weeks, clean the bucket to prevent growth of mold, mildew and bacteria. Partially fill the bucket with clean water and add a little mild detergent. Swish it around in the bucket, empty and rinse.

NOTE: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the bucket. After cleaning, the bucket must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to operate.

3. Clean the air filter

• Remove the filter every two weeks in normal operating conditions
• Remove the filter from the top of the unit (See Fig.11a), or remove the Bucket then pull filter downwards (See Fig.11b).
• Wash the filter with clean water then dry.
• Re-install the filter, replace Bucket.

CAUTION:

DO NOT operate the dehumidifier without a filter because dirt and lint will clog it and reduce performance.

4. When not using the unit for long time periods

• Turn off the unit, wait one day before emptying the bucket.
• Clean the main unit, water bucket and air filter
• Wrap the cord and bundle it with the band(Fig.12).
• Cover the unit with a plastic bag
• Store the unit upright in a dry, well-ventilated place.
