Power Continuous Mode Fan Speeds Setting the Humidity Level Note: Relative Humidity (RH) is the ratio of the actual water content of the air at a given temperature to the potential water content at that same temperature. Operating the Control Panel Use the "Power" button to turn the portable dehumidifier on and off. By default when you first use the power button, the unit will begin to operate in normal fan speed mode. Note: If the unit was powered off, wait at least 3 minutes before powering it back on. Auto-Restart: If power to the unit is interrupted, the dehumidifier will restart itself in with the last used mode/settings once the power is restored. The compressor will restart after 3 minutes. Auto-Shut Off: The unit will shut off when the set humidity has been reached, or when the water bucket is full, has been removed, or is not in its proper position. Continuous mode dehumidifies the air until the water bucket is full. Use the continuous mode for maximum dehumidification. You will not be able to use the set humidity buttons. To operate the unit in continuous mode: 1) Make sure the power cord is plugged into a power outlet. 2) Press the "Power" button. 3) Press the "Cont." button. The LED indicator next to "Cont." will light up. 4) Select the fan speed by using the Normal or High button. The dehumidifier has two fan speeds. Use the turbo fan speed for maximum moisture removal. Use the normal fan speed for quieter operation. Select the fan speed by pressing the "Fan" button until desired mode is illuminated The desired humidity level can be set within a range of 35% Relative Humidity (RH) to 80% RH in 5% increments. To set the desired humidity level percentage: 1) Make sure the power cord is plugged into a power outlet. 2) Press the Power button. Make sure the "Cont." light is turned off. 3) Press the "Increase" and "Decrease" buttons to set the desired humidity level. After a few seconds, the LCD display will revert to the actual room humidity level with ±5% accuracy. For drier air use the "Decrease" button. 5
