To reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, or injury to persons when using your dehumidifier, follow basic

For Your Safety
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of
this or any other appliance. Read product labels for flammability and other warnings.
Child Safety Precautions
Destroy the carton, plastic bags, and any packing materials immediately after the
dehumidifier is unpacked. Children should never use these items for play.

Your dehumidifier must be plugged directly into a properly grounded and
polarized three-prong receptacle. If the wall receptacle you intend to use will not
accept a three-prong plug, or if you are not sure the outlet is adequately
grounded or protected by a time delay fuse or circuit breaker, have a qualified
electrician install the proper outlet according to the National Electrical Code and
applicable local codes and ordinances.

Never unplug the dehumidifier by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the
plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle.
Do not pinch, bend, or knot the power cord.

How It Works
When the unit is started, the fan begins to pull moisture-laden air across the
dehumidifying coils. The coils condense or draw moisture from the air, and air flows
through the side louvers into the room as dry, warm air. Moisture removed from air
is collected in a bucket on the front of the dehumidifier.
