Installation and Operation Guide
Selecting a Location (Important)
- Positioning: Before using the dehumidifier, place the unit UPRIGHT for at least 1 hour before use to allow the refrigerant to stabilize. If the unit was tilted on its side or upside-down during transportation, set the unit UPRIGHT for at least 4 hours before use. The dehumidifier must be positioned UPRIGHT on a level surface during use.
- Enclosed Area: For optimal efficiency, the dehumidifier must be operated in an enclosed area. Keep all doors, windows and other outside entrances to the room closed. Turn off the air conditioning.
- Air Circulation: It's suggested to have a constant efficient air circulation inside the area that you are going to work in, for example, setting up a circulation with XPOWER Air Mover combinations.
- Power Cord and Drain Hose: The power cord has a length of 9.0 feet (2.75 meters) and the drain hose has a length of 40.0 feet (12.0 meters). Select a location where the power cord can reach the power source and the drain hose can reach the area you want. Please do not lift the drainage hose higher than 16 feet (5.0 m) above the machine.
- Inlet and Outlet Orientation: Also pay attention to the orientation of the air inlet and air outlet. Make sure the airflow won't influence any object near the dehumidifier.
- IMPORTANT: The effectiveness of the dehumidifier can be influenced by different factors. You should keep any new moisture-laden air away from the working area and allow sufficient enclosed air circulation in the room. You may also find that installing multiple dehumidifiers may be required for larger enclosed areas.
Drain Hose Installation
Attach the drain hose inlet to the drain outlet of the machine.
The machine's outlet can be found as the graph on the left.
Please have a separate container to collect the water coming from the other end of the drain hose.
