PRODUCT INSTALLATION
Positioning 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. (See Fig. 2)
• Do not use outdoors.
• This dehumidifer is intended for indoor residential applications only.
• This dehumidifer 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 20cm of air space on all sides of the unit for good air circulation (at least 40cm of air
space on air outlet).
• Place the unit in an area where the temperature will not fall below 41°F (5°C). The coils can become
covered with frost at temperatures below 41°F (5°C), 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 dehumidifi er must be operated in an enclosed area to be most effective.
• Close all doors, windows and other outside openings to the room.
• Before tilting or moving the unit in any way, take out the bucket, open the continuous drain outlet to
empty the water, and disconnect the power cord.
