Grounding instructions

A 115-volt (103.5 min., 126.5 max.),

60-Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-ampere fused

and properly grounded electrical

supply is required. A time-delay fuse or

time-delay circuit breaker is

recommended. Use a separate circuit to

connect only the dehumidifier.

For your personal safety, this

dehumidifier must be grounded.This

dehumidifier is equipped with a power

supply cord having a 3 prong ground

plug.

To minimize possible shock hazard, the

cord must be plugged into a mating

3 prong ground-type outlet, grounded

in accordance with local codes and

ordinances. If a mating outlet is not

available, it is the personal

responsibility and obligation of the

customer to have the properly

grounded outlet installed by a qualified

electrician.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong

outlet.

Do not remove ground prong.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not use an extension cord.

Dehumidifier Safety

Install dehumidifier on a level floor

strong enough to support the

dehumidifier with a full bucket of water.

Install your dehumidifier in an area

where the temperature will not fall

below the minimum operating

temperature for your control type.

Lower temperatures will cause your

performance to drop.

Good air circulation is needed

for best performance - allow

at least 12-18 in. (30.5 -

45.7 cm) of air space on all

sides of the dehumidifier.

Keep all outside doors,

windows and other

openings closed when

operating dehumidifier.

Humid outdoor air will

increase dehumidifier

workload.

Installation Instructions (cont.)

12-18"

(30.5 - 45.7 cm)

If you have Control type“A”:

If ice forms on coils, unplug

dehumidifier until ice clears and room

temperature rises.

If you have Control Type“B” or“C”:

Units with these control types have a

deicer that will shut off the compressor

and allow the fan to run.When the

deicer senses the correct operating

temperature, the compressor will cycle

back on.
