Operating Instructions
Indicator Light Function:
LED Display:
When the unit is first connected to an electrical
outlet, the LED will not light until the “on/off”
button is pressed. When the “on/off” button is
pressed, the dehumidifier will automatically
default to the factory default setting. (See Factory
Default Setting for details)
IMPORTANT NOTE: Depending on the humidity
conditions of the surrounding environment, the
dehumidifier may not start automatically when
the “on/off” button is pressed.(see dehumidifier
operating instructions for details)
In the event of a power failure, the unit will
re-start automatically when power is restored.
Water Full Indicator Light (Red):
When the water tank is full and /or incorrectly
positioned inside the cabinet, the (water full) red
light turns on and remains on until such time the
tank is emptied and/or correctly re-positioned.
This condition will result in the immediate shut
down of the dehumidifying system. (compres
-
sor operation is terminated,and several minutes
late,the fan motor is terminated) This is a safety
feature. When the water tank is emptied and/or
correctly re-positioned, the dehumidifier will turn
off.
Factory Default Setting:
The electronic circuit board automatically defaults
to the following factory setting.
Humidity Setting: 50%
Fan Speed: Hi
Water Tank Operation:
Proper installation of the water tank is crucial in
maintaining reliable dehumidifier operation.
The water tank holds accumulated condensed
water and by means of a safety switch controls
both the water level and operation of the dehu
-
midification process.
i.e. When the water tank is full and/or accidentally
displaced inside the cabinet, the float switch
actuator (inside the tank) breaks contact with the
safety switch.
This condition results in the immediate shut down
of the compressor, preventing moisture from
being condensed.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper with or attempt to
defeat the water level (safety) float switch system.
