Set unit upright

NOTICE: Transporting or storing the unit in a horizontal position is not recommended. When the machine is placed in a horizontal position, the oil from the compressor can flow into the refrigerant coils and reduce the ability of the dehumidifier to function and possibly damage the unit. If the unit has been placed in a horizontal position, set it upright and let it stand for at least 30 minutes before turning it on.  

 

Positioning a Dehumidifier

For best results, operate your dehumidifiers in an enclosed area. Close all doors and windows that open to the outside to maximize water removal efficiency. Place your dehumidifier away from obstructions, and keep it away from anything that could block airflow into and out of the unit.

 

Extend handle

Release the handle by rotating red locking lever outward, then lift handle up into place. Rotate red lever back into locked position to secure handle in operating position.

NOTICE: Do not use the extended handle to lift the unit off the ground horizontally. Do not use the extended handle as an attachment point to strap the unit in a vehicle for transport. These uses will place undue strain on the handle attachment points in the housing.

 

Set up drain hose

This unit automatically pumps out water on a regular basis. This dehumidifier is equipped with a quick-connect fitting for attachment to the provided drain hose located in the tray on top of the unit. Unwrap the entire hose and place the open end in a sink, drain, bucket or outdoors – anywhere that water can drain out safely. If you use a bucket or other container for water collection, check it regularly to prevent overflows.

NOTICE: Uncoil and straighten the entire drain hose. Do not leave any part of the hose coiled and do not place the end of the hose higher than 20 ft. (6 m) above the bottom of the unit. Also check for kinks or other obstructions that might restrict the flow of water. A kink or blockage will cause the unit to turn off produce an error message.

 

Plug in electrical cord

The dehumidifier should be plugged into a GFCI-protected 115 volt outlet rated for at least 15 amps.
