Setup

Unpacking and Placement

• Carefully remove the dehumidifier from its packaging.
• Place the unit upright on a flat, stable surface. Ensure there is at least 8 inches of space around the unit for proper air circulation.
• Allow the unit to stand upright for at least 24 hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant to settle.

Drainage Options

Your SAHAUHY dehumidifier offers three drainage methods:

1. Manual Draining: The unit collects water in its 1.14-gallon internal water tank. When the tank is full, the unit will automatically stop operation and an indicator will light up. Empty the tank by pulling it out using the integrated handle.
2. Automatic Drainage: For continuous operation without manual emptying, connect the included 3.3 ft drain hose to the drainage port on the back of the unit. Ensure the hose is positioned downwards to allow gravity drainage.
3. Portable Drainage: The unit can also be connected to a standard garden hose (not included) for extended continuous drainage.

Modes of Operation

The dehumidifier offers four distinct operating modes to suit various environments:

• Sleep Mode: Operates at a lower fan speed for quieter performance, ideal for bedrooms or quiet areas.
• Living Area Mode: Standard operation for general living spaces.
• Basement Mode: Optimized for higher humidity levels typically found in basements and larger areas.
• Continuous Mode: Runs continuously regardless of humidity levels, suitable for very damp conditions or when continuous drainage is used.

Maintenance

Cleaning the Air Filter

The dehumidifier is equipped with a removable and washable filter. It is recommended to clean the filter every 30 days or when the "Clean Filter" indicator lights up to ensure efficient operation.

• Turn off and unplug the unit before cleaning.
• Remove the filter from the back of the unit.
• Wash the filter with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.

Emptying the Water Tank

If not using continuous drainage, the 1.14-gallon water tank will need to be emptied periodically. The unit will automatically shut off when the tank is full to prevent overflow.

• Gently pull out the water tank from the front of the unit.
• Empty the collected water.
• Slide the tank back into place until it clicks securely.
