CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Care and cleaning of the dehumidifier

Turn the dehumidifier off and remove the plug from the
wall outlet before cleaning.
1. Clean the Grille and Case
● Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or
abrasives.
● Do not splash water directly onto the main unit. Doing so
may cause an electrical shock, cause the insulation to
deteriorate, or cause the unit to rust.
● The air intake and outlet grilles get soiled easily, so use a
vacuum attachment or brush to clean.
2. Clean the bucket
Every few weeks, clean the bucket to prevent growth of
mold, mildew and bacteria. Partially fill the bucket with
clean water and add a little mild detergent. Swish it around
in the bucket, empty and rinse.
NOTE: Do not use a dishwasher to clean the bucket. After
clean, the bucket must be in place and securely seated for
the dehumidifier to operate.
3. Clean the air filter
The air filter behind the front grille should be checked and
cleaned at least every 30 days or more often if necessary.
NOTE: DO NOT RINSE OR PUT THE FILTER IN AN
AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER.
To remove:
● Grip the tab on the filter and pull it upward, then pull it out
as shown in Fig.8 and Fig.9.
● Clean the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse and let the
filter dry before replacing it. Do not clean the filter in a
dishwasher.
To attach:
● Insert the air filter into the unit from underside to upside.
See Fig.10.
CAUTION:
DO NOT operate the dehumidifier without a filter because
dirt and lint will clog it and reduce performance.
4. When not using the unit for long time periods
● After turning off the unit, wait one day before emptying the
bucket.
● Clean the main unit, water bucket and air filter.
● Cover the unit with a plastic bag.
● Store the unit upright in a dry, well-ventilated place.
