Cleaning
Always turn off the power and disconnect the main cable before performing maintenance procedures.
• Inspect the electrical cord for damage at regular intervals.
Cleaning the exterior
• Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. If the dehumidifier is extremely dirty, use a mild
cleaning agent or a slightly damp cloth. Never spray the device with water.
Cleaning the dust filter
The dust filter is a life-long filter and therefore should not need to be replaced (other than for wear and
tear reasons). When used regularly, the filter may become clogged with dust and dirt particles. The
filter must be cleaned a minimum of every two weeks (not doing so could invalidate the units’
warranty). Please follow the steps below.
1. Remove the dust filter from the dehumidifier by sliding the filter case to the left, away from the
dehumidifier. The dust filter is built into the filter case and cannot be removed – you may have
to remove the HEPA filter to access the dust filter.
2. Clean the dust filter with the end of a hoover or soapy water no hotter than 40°C. Rinse and
dry completely before inserting back into the dehumidifier.
