HUMIDITY CONTROL
- When the rooms humidity value is 3% lower than the set humidity on the machine, the compressor will shut down, the fan will delay shut down for 3 minutes and then shut down; and when it is 3% higher than the humidity value set on the machine, both the fan and compressor will start to operate.
- When the humidity is set at the minimum value (10%), the machines default will enter the continuous dehumidifying mode.
Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com
- When started, the compressor will start 3 seconds later and when it is shut down, the fan will run for 3 seconds.
- If a fault of the humidity sensor occurs, the machine will turn to the continuous dehumidifying mode.
- If a fault of the coil sensor occurs, the machine will turn to the timing defrosting mode (See Defrosting Mode). PROTECTION FUNCTION
- Once shut down, the compressor will take 3 minutes to restart. Quick start is available for the first power-on.
- Power off memory: For abrupt power outage or accidental unplugging, the machine will automatically return to the operating state right before the ‘incident’, and continue at that state for the next power-on. DEFROSTING MODE Defrosting Mode Description Automatic Defrosting Sensor at Normal State 1: It enters this mode when the compressor runs constantly for 30 minutes and the coil temperature is tested to be < or = 1oC. 2: In defrosting, the compressor stops running, the fan continues running and the defrost light is on. Timing Defrosting In this mode, the machine will defrost for 8 minutes and then switch to standby mode.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com TROUBLESHOOTING Cause Solution No operation (Shown as no power) Power outage Check if the power supply is in working order. Confirm the plug is correctly inserted in the power socket. Fuse in plug or fuse board blown Replace the relevant fuse. No operation (Shown as power on) Environmental humidity lower than the set value Reset humidity setting according to the demand. The machine is defrosting Wait for defrosting to complete. Dehumidifier function not effective If a door or window are open Close the door or window. Room temperature is too low Do not use the dehumidifier. Room temperature too high, humidity too low. In dry conditions the dehumidification ability will reduce. Air filter blocked. Remove any dirt or obstruction from the air intake. Noise is abnormal during operation Dehumidifier is positioned incorrectly. Check that dehumidifier is placed on a flat level surface. Air filter blocked. Remove any dirt or obstruction from the air intake. There is a ‘tittering’ sound. This is the flow of the refrigerant, which is a normal phenomenon. Water Leak Connection of drainage pipe become loose. Check pipe connection. Drainage system is blocked. Remove obstacle and straighten out drainage pipe.
