The control panel allows you to adjust settings and monitor the dehumidifier's status. Key functions include:

• Power Button: Turns the unit on or off.
• Humidity Setting: Adjusts the desired relative humidity (35%-80%).
• Fan Speed: Selects between Low, Medium, and High fan speeds.
• Timer: Sets a 24-hour on/off timer.
• Child Lock: Locks the control panel to prevent accidental changes.
• Display: Shows current humidity level or timer settings.

Setting Desired Humidity

1. Press the Power button to turn on the dehumidifier.
2. Use the Humidity Up/Down buttons to set your desired humidity level. The display will show the set humidity for a few seconds, then revert to the current room humidity.
3. The unit will operate until the room humidity reaches the set level, then cycle on and off to maintain it.

Fan Speed Selection

• Press the Fan Speed button to cycle through Low, Medium, and High settings.
• Higher fan speeds will remove moisture more quickly but may produce more noise.

Timer Function

• To set an auto-on or auto-off time, press the Timer button and use the Up/Down buttons to select the desired hours (1-24).
• The timer will activate after the set time.

Water Removal Options

Your dehumidifier offers two methods for water removal:

1. Manual Emptying (Water Tank)

• The unit has a 4L (8.5 pint) water tank.
• When the tank is full, the "Full Tank" indicator will illuminate, and the unit will automatically shut off.
• Carefully pull out the water tank using the recessed handle.
• Empty the water into a sink or drain.
• Slide the empty tank back into the dehumidifier until it clicks into place. The unit will resume operation.

2. Continuous Drainage

• For continuous operation without emptying the tank, attach the included 3.3 ft. drain hose to the continuous drainage port on the back of the unit.
• Ensure the hose is sloped downwards to allow gravity drainage into a floor drain or large container.
• Do not allow the end of the hose to be submerged in water, as this can cause backflow.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your dehumidifier.

Cleaning the Air Filter
