Setup Guide

1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the dehumidifier from its packaging. It is recommended to leave the dehumidifier upright for at least two hours after delivery before operation to allow the refrigerant to settle.
2. Attach Wheels: The unit comes with 360° universal wheels for easy movement. Gently tilt the unit and firmly insert the wheels into the designated slots on the bottom. Ensure they are securely in place.
3. Install Handle (if applicable): If a separate handle component is provided, attach it according to the instructions.
4. Drainage Setup:
   • Manual Drainage: The unit has a built-in 1.05-gallon (4.8-liter) water tank. When the tank is full, the unit will automatically shut off and an indicator light will illuminate. Carefully remove the tank, empty the collected water, and reinsert it.
   • Continuous Drainage: For continuous operation without manual emptying, connect the included drain hose to the continuous drainage port at the back of the unit. Ensure the hose is sloped downwards to allow gravity to drain the water into a suitable floor drain or larger container.
   • Pump Drainage (Optional): If you wish to drain water upwards or over a longer distance, a separate pump (not included) can be connected. Refer to the pump's instructions for installation.
5. Placement: Place the dehumidifier on a flat, stable surface in the desired location. Ensure there is adequate space around the unit (at least 8 inches) for proper airflow.
6. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.

1. Power On/Off: Press the ON/OFF button to turn the unit on or off.
2. Set Desired Humidity: Use the HUMIDITY button to adjust the target humidity level. The unit will operate until the set humidity is reached, then cycle on and off to maintain it. The 3-color indicator will reflect the current ambient humidity.
3. Adjust Fan Speed: Press the SPEED button to cycle through low, medium, and high fan speeds. Higher speeds result in faster dehumidification.
4. Timer Function: Use the TIMER button to set an automatic on or off time (0-24 hours).
5. Clothes Drying Mode: Activate the DRYING mode for continuous operation to quickly dry clothes in humid conditions.
6. Ionizer Function: Press the IONIZER button to activate the ionizer, which helps to improve air quality.
7. Auto Defrost: The unit is equipped with an automatic defrost function. If frost builds up on the coils, the unit will temporarily stop dehumidifying and run the fan to melt the frost. The DEFROST indicator will illuminate during this process.
8. Full Tank Indicator: When the water tank is full, the FULL indicator will light up, and the unit will stop operating until the tank is emptied.
