INSTALLATION
• After removing the packaging, check that the appliance is intact; if in doubt, do not
use it and contact a qualified professional. The packaging elements (plastic bags,
polystyrene, metal tacks, etc.) must not be left in reach of children or irresponsible
people, as they can be dangerous. They must be disposed of according to current
regulations.
• Before connecting the equipment, make certain that the plate information (voltage,
etc.) correspond to the characteristics of the electricity distribution network. This
appliance must be connected to a socket that has an effective earthing device (the
manufacturer declines any liability that may arise from failure to comply with this
rule). Check that no other appliances with a high energy consumption are
connected to the power supply, to avoid overloading and the risk of fire. In general,
the use of adapters, multiple sockets and/or extension leads is not recommended.
If their use is unavoidable, they must comply with current safety regulations and
their current capacity (amperes) must be no lower than the maximum current draw
of the appliance.
• The appliance must be installed and/or placed in a location with a surface area of at
least 4 m².
• Do not install the dehumidifier in environments where there are flammable
products (spray cans or canisters containing gas, liquids or solids), or in dusty
environments.
• Place the appliance in a vertical position,
supported on all feet as well as: away
from sources of heat, keep away from
fabrics (curtains, hanging laundry, etc.)
or anything else that might come into
contact and/or obstruct the inlet and
outlet grilles; keep away from bathtubs,
sinks or similar, to avoid the appliance
being splashed with water, or falling into
these.
• Ensure there is a free space around the
appliance of at least 50 cm.
• The appliance must be placed on a wide, strong, stable surface (do not place on a
shelf), not on an incline (the water may overflow and escape), smooth (not rough) or
in a place where it might be knocked.
• The appliance must not be placed just below a power socket.
• The power socket must be easily accessible so that the plug can be removed easily
in an emergency.
• Make sure that the mains cable is correctly positioned and is not in contact with hot
parts or sharp edges, or wound around the appliance or twisted and does not
become entangled, to prevent the appliance from falling.
