Positioning A Dehumidifier; Operating Your Dehumidifier - Dri-Eaz DrizAir 1200 Manuel D'utilisation

POSITIONING A DEHUMIDIFIER

For best results, operate your dehumidifiers in an
enclosed area, as this creates a drying chamber. Close

all doors and windows that open to the outside to
maximize the unit's water removal efficiency. Also, keep
traffic though the drying chamber to a minimum. Place
your 1200 dehumidifier against a wall, away from
obstructions, and keep it away from anything that could
block airflow into and out of the unit.
Managing temperature rise
DrizAir dehumidifiers warm the air as they remove
moisture. Optimal drying temperatures range from
68−85°F (20−29°C).
The most accurate way to monitor temperature is with a
thermo-hygrometer; however, you can use an
indoor/outdoor thermometer to gauge temperature. Just
make sure it is located in the center of the room away
from the airflow of the dehumidifier.
If the temperature rises to unsafe levels (over
90°F/32°C) you can use the structure's HVAC (heating
air conditioning) system to bring the temperature down.
Just set it to 80°F (27°C), and continue to operate the
dehumidifier. For more information about creating an

OPERATING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER

Set unit upright
Always operate the dehumidifier in an upright position. If
the unit has been stored or transported in a horizontal
position, set it upright (vertical) for at least 30 minutes

before operating it. When the unit is placed in a
horizontal, oil from the compressor flows into the
refrigerant coils reducing the ability of the dehumidifier to
function.
Set up drain hose
The 1200 condensate pump connects to a plastic
drainage hose that is wrapped around the air outlet
located at the back of the unit. Unwrap the entire hose
and place the unattached end in a sink, drain, bucket or
outside – anywhere that water can drain out safely. If
you use a bucket or other receptacle for water collection,
check it regularly to prevent spills.
NOTE: Uncoil and straighten the entire drain hose.
Do not leave any of part of the hose coiled on the
unit and do not place the end of the hose higher
than 20 ft. (6 m) above the top of the unit. Also
check for kinks, or obstructions that would restrict
the flow of water. Failure to do so may cause a water
backup in the pump resulting in leakage.
Plug in electrical cord
Locate the electrical cord either on the top or back of the
unit. The 1200 dehumidifier may be plugged in to a 115-
volt (15 amp) grounded outlet, which is standard in most
homes.
If the unit experiences a loss of power, either from a
power interruption or from thermal overload protection,
let the unit rest for five minutes before restarting.
Otherwise it might shut off again.
Turn the unit on
Press the "on" button on the touchpad.
How to use the control panel
The Touchpad on DrizAir dehumidifiers has one display
and four keys. The normal display messages are
