•
Installation must be in accordance with the regulations of the country where the unit
is used.
•
If you are in any doubt about the suitability of your electrical supply, have it checked

•
Do not leave children unsupervised with this appliance.
•
Do not clean the unit by spraying it or immersing it in water.
•
Never connect the unit to an electrical outlet using an extension cord. If a power outlet
is not available, one should be installed by a qualified electrician.
•
Never operate this appliance if the cord, power adapter or plug is damaged. Ensure
the power cord is not stretched or exposed to sharp objects/edges.
•
A damaged power supply cord should be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified
electrician in order to avoid a hazard.
•
Any service other than regular cleaning or filter replacement should be performed by
an authorized service representative. Failure to comply could result in a voided
warranty.
•
Do not use the appliance for any purpose other than its intended use.
•
Do not tilt the unit while in use. The unit is designed to work only in a vertical position.
•
This dehumidifier must always be stored and transported upright, otherwise
irreparable damage may be caused to the compressor; if in doubt we suggest waiting
at least 24 hours before starting the unit.
•
Avoid restarting the dehumidifier unless 5 minutes have passed since being turned
off. This prevents damage to the compressor.
•
Never use the plug as a switch to start or turn off the dehumidifier. Use the provided
ON/OFF switch located on the control panel.
•
Always place the unit on a dry and stable surface.
•
The appliance should not be installed in laundry or wet rooms where the humidity is
higher than 85% RH
•
Do not dry laundry above the unit to prevent water from entering the dehumidifier.
Place the laundry at least 1 meter away from your dehumidifier.
•
Before moving the appliance, the water tank should be emptied.

•
The handle on the appliance is designed to aid in its movement and should not be
used to support the full weight of the dehumidifier. When carrying the unit, it should
be kept upright and sufficiently supported by its base.
•
The handle should not be used if there are any signs of damage to its fixings.
•
The appliance must be placed in a room without sources of ignition (for example open
flames, an operating gas appliance or an operating electric heater).
•
R290 refrigerant gas complies with European environmental directives.
•
R290 has a low GWP (Global Warming Potential) of 3.
•
The CD12LEB contains about 60g of R290 refrigerant gas.
•
The CD20LEB contains about 75g of R290 refrigerant gas.
•
Do not use or store the CD20LEB in an unventilated space with an area smaller than
4.1m2 per unit.
•
Do not use or store the CD12LEB in an unventilated space with an area smaller than
2.6m2 per unit.
•
If the appliance is installed, used or stored in an unventilated room, the room must be
such as to prevent stagnation of possible leaks of refrigerant gas as there could be a
danger of fire or explosion should the refrigerant come into contact with electric
heaters, stoves or other sources of ignition.
•
Refrigerant gas may be odourless.
•
Do not use the product and contact the retailer for advice, if damage has occurred to
the unit which may have compromised the refrigerant system.
•
Any repairs or maintenance must only be carried out on the unit by a suitably qualified
engineer. Before opening and servicing the unit the authorized engineer must be in
possession of a copy of the manufacturer’s service manual and must follow the safety
information contained within it to ensure all hazards are minimized.
•
The refrigerant system should not be perforated or punctured.
•
Do not place the unit next to heat sources (e.g. electrical fires, fireplaces, etc.)
•
Avoid mishandling the dehumidifier. Dropping, throwing the unit can cause damage to
its internals and increases the risks of operating it.
•
Do not store or use gasoline, petrol, paint, solvents or other flammable vapours or
liquids in the vicinity of this dehumidifier or any other appliance.
•
This dehumidifier must not be used in spaces where there is a high concentration of
gases, solvent or other volatile organic compounds; in very dusty environments; in any
domestic, commercial or industrial environment where the air composition is
flammable.
ENERGY SAVING AND UNIT SAFETY PROTECTION TIPS
•
Do not cover or restrict the airflow from the outlet or inlet grills. Do not operate and
follow troubleshoot procedure if the self-opening louvres do not open on power on.
•
For maximum performance the minimum distance from a wall or objects should be 20
cm
•
Keep the filters or grills of the unit clean. Under normal conditions, filters or grills
should only need cleaning once every three weeks (approximately).
•
Since the filters remove airborne particles, more frequent cleaning maybe necessary,
depending on the air quality. Vacuum both mesh and optional carbon filters and wash
the mesh filters with hot soapy water and dry them before placing them back in the
unit.
