8. Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Dehumidifier does not turn on.	No power supply. Water tank is full or not properly inserted.	Check if the power cord is securely plugged into an active outlet. Empty the water tank and ensure it is correctly reinserted.
No water collected or low dehumidification.	Room humidity is too low. Air inlets/outlets are blocked. Room temperature is too low (below 41°F / 5°C). Unit size is too small for the room.	Dehumidifiers are most effective in relative humidity above 49%. Ensure clear space around the unit for proper airflow. Dehumidifiers operate best in temperatures above 41°F (5°C). Consider using the unit in a smaller area (60-300 sq ft for optimal results).
Unit is noisy.	Unit is not on a level surface. Air filter is dirty.	Place the unit on a stable, level surface. Clean the air filter.
Burning smell.	Internal component issue. Incorrect power adapter (if applicable).	Immediately unplug the unit and contact customer support. Do not attempt to operate. Ensure you are using the correct power adapter for your region.
