TROUBLESHOOTING

Here are some tips to try if your dehumidifier isn’t working properly.

Problem	Possible Cause	Possible Solution
Dehumidifier won’t turn on or buttons not working	No electricity.	Check for power.
	The power adapter is not properly plugged in.	Remove and reconnect the power adapter.
	The water tank is removed.	Ensure that the water tank is placed properly in its place.
Dehumidifier runs but the humidity level does not decrease.	Air inlet or outlet is blocked.	Remove blockage.
	Doors and windows are open, letting in new moisture.	Make sure all doors and windows are closed.
	There are other sources of humidity in the room (e.g. boiling water).	Prevent the humidity sources in the room.
	The temperature in the room is too low.	The dehumidifier is designed to operate between 15oC and 32oC. Moisture removal is greatly reduced if room temperatures exceed this temperature range.
	Insufficient time for the dehumidifier to remove moisture.	After initial operation, allow few hours to maintain desired dryness.
Dehumidifier stopped working and the light is flashing.	The water tank is full.	Drain the collected water.
	The water tank is removed.	Ensure that the water tank is placed properly in its place.
Water leaks down on the floor.	The dehumidifier is placed on an uneven surface, so water drips out of the tank.	Place the dehumidifier on an even level surface.
Noise	Fan is working.	Wind from the fan can create sounds during operation. This is normal.
