Resumen del manual
When humidity has been reduced to the comfort level set on the control, the unit turns off. When first using dehumidifier, turn Humidistat Control clockwise to MAX.DRY. Unit will run continuously at this setting. Operate dehumidifier at the MAX.DRY setting for three to four days. During this time, observe the dampness conditions in the area being dried. When the sweating has stopped and the dampness odors are gone, adjust Humidistat Control to the position between OFF and MAX.DRY that provides a “dryness” condition suitable to your needs/comfort. Fan Speeds The Fan Speed adjusts fan speed. When humidity has been reduced to the desired level and quiet operation is preferred, press Fan Speed to LO. Moisture Removal At first, the dehumidifier will remove large amounts of moisture. It will continue to do so until the relative humidity is reduced to a point where moisture damage will not occur. Then, the amount of moisture removed from the air will be a lot less. This indicates the dehumidifier is operating effectively and is maintaining the relative humidity at the desired level. Judge the performance of the dehumidifier by the elimination of dampness and dampness odors, not by the amount of water being deposited in the bucket. When bucket has filled with water, unit will turn off. All models feature an Automatic Shut-Off light that will glow until bucket is emptied and returned to the proper position. Operating Conditions All models will operate if the room teperature is greater than 65°F (18°C). Models with a moisture removal capacity greater than 40 pints per 24 hours will operate satisfactorily at a temperature no lower than 50°F (10°C). If conditions less than those stated or the humidity is low the dehumidifier should be turned off. See “Frost Control”. (Hi-Speed) (Low-Speed) 4 Dehumidifier Features ( ((c cco oon nnt tti iin nnu uue eed dd) )) Operating Conditions (Continued) A dehumidifier will not eliminate frost on windows during winter. The dehumidifying coil normally operates above freezing temperatures and cannot prevent moisture from condensing on the inside of a window pane that is below freezing. T TTI IIP PP: :: It may be helpful to use a dehumidifier in the kitchen or laundry area where the humidity is high. Reducing humidity in these areas may reduce frost on windows in other parts of the home. Frost Control The Frost Control feature prevents frost or ice from remaining on the dehumidifying coil for an extended period of time. When frost formation occurs, this control turns off the compressor. The fan continues to run, causing any frost or ice to melt. Dehumidifier will then resume normal operation. Frost Control is also designed to prevent excessive on-off cycling. Under certain conditions this may allow frost to remain on coil for some time before the compressor turns off and the frost is cleared. Removing Collected Water Figure 1 Bucket and Float Installation All models are supplied with a bucket, which is conveniently tucked into the front of the unit to accumulate water removed from the air, or use the built-in hose connection to carry water directly to a drain. When using the bucket the Automatic Shut-Off switch is activated by a float. The Automatic Shut-Off switch stops the unit before the bucket overflows, and turns the unit on again after the bucket is emptied and replaced. The bucket and float must be installed correctly for proper operation (Figure 1). 1. Grasp bucket from both sides at the bottom, gently lift up and slide halfway outBucket Removal until handle is exposed. See Figure 2. 2. Grab handle and slide bucket away from unit. See Figure 3. 3. After emptying the collected water, slide bucket back into place. 4. Be sure bucket is in place. Figure 2 Figure 3 5 Direct Draining Direct Draining If you want the water to flow directly to a drain, you must first remove the hose cap (Figure 2). To remove hose cap, use a standard screwdriver and turn counterclockwise. Connect any standard garden hose to the bucket connection, or place the dehumidifier over the drain. A standard garden hose has a 3/4” (19 mm) diameter connection with 111.2 inch threads per inch. N NNo oot tte ee: :: When using either of the above direct draining methods, you must first drill a 3/8” (10 mm) hole in the center of the bucket connection. (For ease of drilling use locating mark to center drill bit for hole (Figure 3).) This will allow water to flow freely through the connection. To reseal the hose connection to the bucket, use any standard hose end cap.
