English If your dehumidifier does not work as expected Before calling read the following section. It will help you solve the most common problems that might occur and that can be easily corrected. If all efforts fail and you need service, a toll free number is available. Please use it to contact our customer service. Items to check before calling for service: Unit not operating Make sure the plug is pushed completely into the outlet. The fuse is blown or circuit was tripped. Check the house fuse/circuit breaker. Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. The bucket is full. The dehumidifier automatically turns off when this occurs. The drain bucket needs to be emptied. Dehumidifier is icing up during initial stage of operation This is normal. Frost will usually disappear within 60 minutes unless temperature is below 60°F. This is normal for the dehumidifier. Airflow is restricted Make sure there are no curtains, blinds or furniture blocking the front or back of the dehumidifier. Clean the filter. Additional note: After prolonged usage, the condenser coils behind the filter may develop a buildup of residue. Unless cleaned regularly with a soft brush, this residue will harden through time and may require special cleaning methods by a refrigeration/air-conditioning serviceman.
