The humidity level can be set within a range of 30%RH to 80%RH in 5% increments.

• When it starts work, it will first automatically detect and show the room's humidity. Press the “UP” button to change the humidity selection in 5% increments. “88” will flash and show the setting humidity.
• Press “UP” to increase the humidity by 5%RH.
• Press “DOWN” to decrease the humidity by 5%RH. After 5 seconds of no operation, “88” will show the actual room humidity.
• When the humidity level is higher or drops to the level you have set, the dehumidifier will automatically begin to work or stop.
• When the humidity level is set at 30%RH, the dehumidifier will work in continuous dehumidifying mode.

Timer Setting

This TIMER setting function is designed for you to set a time to turn off or turn on the machine, automatically by the timer.

1. Press the “TIMER” button to select the timer by 1-hour increment. You can set the timer up to 24 hours. It will start to count down when you start the timer.
2. Press and hold the “TIMER” button for several seconds to make the selection of the timer faster.
3. If the time is set to 00, this is called the invalid time. If you set the timer successfully, the light (? or ⏰) will be up. The LED screen will show the remaining time if you press the “TIMER” button, and display the current humidity automatically after a few seconds.

Speed Button

Control the fan speed. Press to select either High or Normal fan speed. Higher fan speed will result in quicker moisture removal. Set the speed high for maximum moisture removal. When the humidity has been reduced and quiet operation is more preferred, set the fan speed back to Normal.

Power Off Memory Function

• The device automatically restores the working state after power on.
• If the device is turned on and a power interruption occurred, after starting the unit again, it will keep the previous parameters of setup.
• If the device is turned off and power interruption occurred, the device will still be in a power-off status when turned on.

Overflow Protection

When the water tank is full of water, the machine will turn off automatically. The indicator light (WATER FULL ? or WATER FULL ?) will flash. After you empty the water from the tank, the indicator light (WATER FULL ? or WATER FULL ?) will turn off. The machine will restart to work.

Caution: Water tank must be placed in the right position, otherwise, it will cause the water full alarm.

Auto Defrost Feature

When the dehumidifier is running at a lower temperature, the system will automatically determine whether there is a presence of frost. If any frost exists, it will defrost automatically.

Defrost Action

The fan runs at high wind speed when the compressor stops, and the LED screen displays the defrosting symbol.

4. Instructions for Drying Clothes

The dehumidifier can be used for drying clothes in rainy weather.

Step 1:

Hang the washed clothes in a small space such as a cloakroom, bathroom, or storage room. Note: Keep the unit away from the water drips of the washed clothes.

Step 2:

Open the dehumidifier and set the humidity level at 30%RH. It's best if you let the air outlet of the dehumidifier blow air to the clothes directly.

The drying effect will vary from the thickness of clothes, the number of clothes, and the size of the drying space. Theoretically, the effect will be better when clothes are few, thin, and the space is small.

The drying process would take 3-8 hours, and it is suggested that continuous drainage mode would be more suitable when drying clothes.
