SITING REQUIREMENTS

Make sure there is at least 20cm of space on all sides and at least

30cm above the dehumidifier for operation.

Place on a flat, solid surface capable of withstanding the load of the dehumidifier with a full tank.

fig.1

Close all doors and windows when the dehumidifier is working.

Damp air from outdoors will increase the workload of dehumidifier.

DO NOT use the dehumidifier in a place where room temperature

is lower than the machine's minimum operation temperature 5°C (41°F),

and a maximum temperature not exceeding 32°C (90oC).

OPERATION

Check that the water tank is empty and in place.

Check operational temperature 5°- 32°C.

Plug the unit into the mains supply.

Each time the mains supply is switched off or interrupted, the controls will go back to their original setting.

The LED ring on the front panel will illuminate to advise on the humidity level in the environment. Red indicates 70%+, Green

indicates 50-70%, blue indicates below 50%.

Use minimal pressure when pressing control buttons. Buttons are touch sensitive and not mechanically operated.

Press the Stand-by button to turn the dehumidifier on (the power light is lit) (fig.2).

Whether the water outlet hose is used or not, the water tank must be in position otherwise the dehumidifier will not operate. AIR FILTER The filter needs to be cleaned every two weeks for effective operation of the dehumidifier. Remove the plug from the mains supply. Place finger into the recess on the bottom edge of the filter cover and lift up and remove to allow filter to be removed. DO NOT use any liquid to wash the filter. Only dry in direct sunlight. It is recommenced to replace the filter every six months depending on usage levels. Replace in reverse order as above.

5. MAINTENANCE



WARNING: Disconnect from mains supply before attempting any cleaning or maintenance.

5.1.

Use a wet cloth to clean the outside. DO NOT splash water onto the dehumidifier.

5.2.

Clean the inside of the water tank with an antibacterial cleaner every few weeks to avoid the build up of bacteria. The tank has a

water level warning and must be placed in the right position. The dehumidifier will not work if the water level is too high.

6. TROUBLESHOOTING

Dehumidifier does not work: - Is dehumidifier plugged in - Check that water tank is in the correct position
- Check that water tank is not full (empty) and that float ball is in correct position

The pipe is frozen: - The dehumidifier has a defrosting function. The fan keeps working after the compressor stops working. This will solve the problem of a frozen pipe. When the defrosting device reaches room temperature, the dehumidifier will resume operation.

The dehumidifier `runs' without dehumidifying: (The dehumidifier will blow warmer air when it is working properly). - Power light lights once per second when it is defrosting - Power light lights for three seconds then goes out for one second or lights for one second then goes out means there is a fault with the humidity sensor - contact Sealey stockist

The dehumidifier runs as soon as it is switched on: - Check if the dehumidifier is defrosting. After defrosting the dehumidifier will restart automatically after defrosting.

Dehumidifying capacity is too weak: - Check if filter net is blocked - clean - dehumidifying capacity will be weaker if the temperature and humidity levels are too low - check if air inlet is blocked - clean

Expected humidity takes a long time to be reached: - check whether doors and windows are open - check if anything is producing vapour - check whether the volume of the room is too large
