3.1 Unpacking and Placement

Carefully remove the dehumidifier from its packaging. Place the unit upright on a firm, level surface. Ensure there is at least 8 inches (20 cm) of space around the unit for proper airflow.

3.2 Power Connection

Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet. The unit is designed for 115V, 60Hz power supply.

3.3 Drainage Options

Your dehumidifier offers two drainage methods: manual emptying of the water tank or continuous drainage using the included hose.

• Manual Drainage: The unit features a large 6.5L (1.72 Gallon) water tank. When the tank is full, the unit will automatically shut off and an indicator light will illuminate. Carefully remove the tank using the side handles and empty the collected water.
• Continuous Drainage: For continuous operation without manual emptying, attach the provided drain hose to the drainage hole at the bottom of the water tank. Ensure the hose is positioned downwards to allow gravity drainage into a suitable drain.
