Danby DDR5009REE Dehumidifier User Manual


 
START OPERATION
1) Place the product in an upright
position on a flat, stable, and heat-
resistant surface. Make sure there is
nothing flammable or heat sensitive
within 100cm (39 inches). Operating
the product in any other position could
cause a hazard.
2) Insert the plug into a suitable wall
socket. The dehumidifier is suitable for
operating on an electricity supply
having the same voltage as that shown
on its rating label.
3) Make sure the water tank is correctly
located. After switching on the machine
for the first time, if the “Bucket Full”
light illuminates, pull out the water
tank and check that the “float” lever is
able to move freely, then return the
water tank to the correct position
(Fig. 1).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (cont’d)
5
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 that the tank is emptied and/or
correctly re-positioned.
This condition will result in the immediate shut down of the dehumidifying system (both compressor and fan
motor operations are terminated). This is a safety feature. When the water tank is emptied and/or correctly
re-positioned, the dehumidifier will resume operation automatically.
NOTE: It may take several minutes before operating conditions resume.
BUCKET
FULL LIGHT
• When the water tank is full the machine will stop and the“Bucket Full” light will
illuminate.
• The water tank should be carefully removed from the machine by sliding it outward
from the front of the unit, and it should be emptied. When the empty tank is replaced
properly in the machine, the unit will start up and run normally (Fig. 2).
NOTE: Please use both hands to carefully empty the water tank.

FACTORY
DEFAULT SETTING
Each time the unit is disconnected/re-connected and/or in the event of a power failure,
the electronic circuitboard automatically defaults to the following factory setting:
Humidity Setting: 60%
Fan Speed: Low
NOTE: In the event of a power failure, all previous
settings are automatically erased/cancelled. If your
program setting was different from the above (default
setting) it will be necessary to re-program your
settings.When the unit is switched “Off” manually
(using the on/off keypad) the unit will always default
to the last program setting that was used.
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 dehumidification process.
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 and fan motor system, preventing moisture from being condensed.
NOTE: Never tamper with or attempt to defeat the water level (safety) float switch system.
