Replacing the HEPA filter
The dehumidifier comes with a H13 HEPA filter. This HEPA filter can be inserted into the dehumidifier
to enable air purification, however this is optional - the dehumidifier can be used without the HEPA filter,
this means it will dehumidify the air only and not purify it.
Although we do highly recommend using the dehumidifier with a HEPA filter, if you would like a quieter
unit, removing the HEPA filter will reduce the noise level by 4-5 decibels.
• The HEPA filter is not life-long and must be replaced when the colour changes from white to
grey (it depends on the environment the dehumidifier is being used in but the HEPA filter will
need replacing roughly every 3 months).
• The HEPA filter can be hoovered every so often to remove any dust or dirt.
• To insert/replace the HEPA filter place it inside the combined filter case and dust filter, then
slide the combined filter case and dust filter into the dehumidifier.
• Replacement HEPA filters can be purchased from www.meaco.com.
Storage
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the dehumidifier will not be used for a long period of time, take the following steps:
1. Remove the plug from the socket and empty the water tank. Allow the water tank and the
dehumidifier to dry completely, this can take a couple of days.
2. Use the cable tidy on the back of the dehumidifier to wrap the cable away.
3. Clean the filter and store the device in a dust-free location away from direct sunlight, preferably
covered with a sheet of plastic.
