20
When positioning the dehumidifier, ensure that it is placed on a level surface and that there is a
minimum of 20 cm (8") of space on either side of the unit to allow for efficient airflow.
If you move the unit, it should first be switched off and the water tank emptied.
We do not recommend the use of an extension lead, so please try to ensure that the unit is
sufficiently close to a fixed mains socket. If it is necessary to use am extension lead, use one with
earthing and please ensure the diameter of the wires of the cable is at least 1,5 mm².
Don’t place the device near a heater, stove or other heat source, and not in full sunshine.
When the dehumidifier is in operation, outside doors and windows should be closed when
necessary for most efficient use. Never use or store the appliance in rooms smaller than 4m2 and
always keep 20 cm of open space on all sides of the appliance.
Installation / Continuous discharge
When the dehumidifier is operated at very high humidity levels, the water tank will require more
frequent drainage. Sometimes it is therefore more efficient to provide a continuous discharge.
There are two ways to connect continuous drainage to the device, i.e. you can drain water to a
lower water tank or water drainage device (without a pump) or drain it to a higher water tank or
drainage device (with a pump). The difference relates to where you must attach the water hose
to the device.
Water drainage downwards to lower water tank or drainage device (without pump)
1. Pull out the water tank.
2. Connect an appropriate tube (included) with a clamp or draw strap on the drain pipe, that
becomes visible when you remove the water tank.
3. Put the water tank back to its position and lead the tube through the opening for continuous
drainage down into a drain or a big container. The short, pre-shaped hose that is attached
to the rear of the device, as standard, must be placed in the same channel opening in the
water tank. NB: this is important otherwise water damage may occur!
Please note: in case, the water tank has not been positioned well, the water full indicator
keeps burning. The equipment does not work
