MAINTENANCE

GRILLE AND CASE

To clean the case: Use water and a mild

detergent. Do not use bleach or an abrasive

cleaner.

To clean the grille: Use a vacuum with an

attachment or brush.

AIR FILTER

The air filter is on the back of the dehumidifier.

It should be checked and cleaned at least

every 30 days or more often if necessary.

TO REMOVE:

Flex the filter at the lower right corner and slide

the upper right side to the left. Release all of

the tabs and remove the filter. Wash it in warm

soapy water. Rinse and let the filter dry before

replacing it.

CLEANING INSIDE THE UNIT

After removing the air filter, clean the coil on

the inside with a soft brush to remove any soft

and wet soil.

NOTE: Do not allow water to enter the

electrical/machine compartment through the

circular opening behind the coil.

Do not spray the coil with a hose.

GENERAL CLEANING

• Dust the front grille and the side panels with a

soft brush or use the dusting attachment of

your vacuum.

• If cabinet paint chips, you can touch up the

paint with a good grade enamel to prevent rust.

WATER BUCKET CLEANING

• Every few weeks, rinse the inside of the water

bucket with a mild detergent to prevent

growth of mold, mildew, and bacteria.
