1

How do I configure the Idylis 526011 for continuous drainage?

To set up continuous drainage, unscrew and remove the drain cover at the rear of the unit (Fig. A). Then remove the soft rubber stopper and place it in the water tank securely (Fig. B). Ensure the rubber seal ring is properly seated in the hose end as shown in Fig.C. Finally, connect the garden hose to the drain port on the back of the unit (Fig.D) and tighten clockwise.

2

What should I do if my dehumidifier’s water tank triggers a 'Bucket Full' light but isn’t actually full?

If the water tank is not actually full, pull out the water tank and verify that the float lever can move freely. The issue might be with improper positioning or obstruction of this lever causing incorrect triggering of the safety switch (Fig. 1). If free movement is established and the problem persists, consult technical support.

3

How often should I clean my dehumidifier's air filter?

The air filter timer light glows after approximately 250 hours of operation, reminding you to remove and clean the air filter with a vacuum cleaner or by washing it in mild dishwashing detergent before drying. After cleaning, place the filter back into the unit (Fig.3).

4

Can I use my dehumidifier without an air filter installed?

No, the dehumidifier should never be operated without its air filter in place since it impacts negatively on operating efficiency and is important for air intake (Fig.3). Install the filter correctly before starting the unit.

5

What happens if my Idylis dehumidifier stops working when the water tank is full?

If the 'Bucket Full' light turns on and your machine ceases to operate, this indicates that the water level switch has engaged. Ensure the tank is removed carefully with both hands (Fig.2), emptied properly, and reinserted correctly for normal operation to resume automatically.

6

What should I do before storing my dehumidifier for long periods?

To store your unit properly for prolonged periods, power off the device, empty and thoroughly dry the water tank. Clean the air filter thoroughly as well. Place it back in its original packaging if possible or repackage into the box you received (Fig. A), then store upright in a dry location.

    ##### Cuando la unidad esté en espera, presione el botón del TEMPORIZADOR para configurar el encendido automático de la máquina. Presione los botones "+" o "-" para seleccionar un tiempo específico.

    #### INSTRUCCIONES DE FUNCIONAMIENTO

    #### INSTRUCCIONES DE FUNCIONAMIENTO

    DESCONGELACIÓN Cuando la máquina funciona a temperaturas bajas (menos de 18 °C o 64,4 °F), la superficie del evaporador puede acumular una capa de escarcha que reduciría la eficacia de la máquina. Cuando esto ocurra, la máquina entrará en modo de descongelamiento periódico. La máquina funcionará en temperaturas mínimas de 5 °C (41 °F). El tiempo de descongelación puede variar. Si la máquina se congela, se debe apagarse el suministro de electricidad y reiniciarse. Si la temperatura ambiente sigue siendo inferior a 5 °C (41 °F), se debe apagar la máquina.

    #### INICIO DEL FUNCIONAMIENTO

    |Fig. 1| | |---|---| | | |

  • 1. Coloque el producto en posición vertical sobre una superficie plana, nivelada y resistente al calor. Asegúrese de que no haya nada inflamable o sensible al calor en un radio de 99,06 cm. El f uncionamiento del producto en cualquier otra posición podría ser peligroso.
  • 2. Inserte el enchufe en un t omacorriente de pared adecuado. El deshumidificador es apto para funcionar en un suministro de electricidad con el mismo voltaje que el indicado en la etiqueta de clasificación.
  • 3. Asegúrese de que el tanque de agua esté ubicado correctamente. Después de encender la máquina por primera vez, si se ilumina la luz de “Cubeta llena”, extraiga el tanque de agua y compruebe que la palanca “flotador” pueda moverse libremente, luego devuelva el tanque de agua a la posición correcta (Fig. 1).
  • DESHUMIDIFICACIÓN SELECCIÓN DEL MODO DE DESHUMIDIFICACIÓN:

  • 1) Para encender la unidad, presione el botón de ENCENDIDO / APAGADO.
  • 2) Presione el botón de humedad para seleccionar un valor de funcionamiento de humedad relativa deseado (30% a 90%). SELECCIÓN DE VELOCIDAD DEL VENTILADOR: Seleccione la v elocidad del v entilador en el teclado. La velocidad que seleccione se identifica con la luz indicadora (iluminada) que se encuentra directamente sobre el modo de selección.
  • LUZ INDICADORA DE TANQUE LLENO DE AGUA (ROJA) Cuando el tanque de agua está lleno y/o en posición incorrecta dentro del gabinete, la luz roja indicadora de tanque lleno de agua se enciende y permanece encendida hasta el momento en que el tanque se vacía y/o reubica correctamente. Esta condición tendrá como resultado el apagado inmediato del sistema de deshumidificación (el compresor y el motor del ventilador dejan de funcionar). Esta es una característica de seguridad. Cuando el tanque de agua esté vacío y/o reubicado correctamente, el deshumidificador reanudará automáticamente su funcionamiento. NOTA: Pueden pasar varios minutos antes de que las condiciones de funcionamiento se reanuden.

    #### FILTRO DE AIRE

    |Fig. 3| | |---|---| | | |

    Este deshumidificador contiene un filtro de aire extraíble, que se encuentra en la parte posterior de la unidad (detrás de la rejilla de entrada de aire), directamente sobre el compartimiento del tanque de agua. Un filtro de aire bloqueado u obstruido reduce la entrada de aire, lo que tiene un impacto negativo en la eficacia de funcionamiento.

    #### LUZ DE CUBETA LLENA

    |Fig. 2| | |---|---|

    Page 10

    | | |

  • • Cuando el tanque de agua esté lleno, la máquina se detendrá y se iluminará la de “Cubeta llena”.
  • • El tanque de agua debe retirarse con cuidado de la máquina, deslizándolo hacia afuera desde la parte del frente de la unidad, y debe vaciarse. Cuando el tanque vacío se reubique correctamente en la máquina, la unidad arrancará y funcionará normalmente (Fig. 2). NOTA: Use ambas manos para vaciar el tanque de agua con cuidado.
  • Después de 250 horas de funcionamiento, la luz indicadora se encenderá para recordarle que debe limpiar el filtro. Retire el filtro y límpielo. Presione para apagar la luz. Consulte “PASOS PARA LA LIMPIEZA DEL FILTRO DE AIRE”.

    IMPORTANTE: Nunca utilice la unidad sin colocar el filtro de aire en su lugar.

    |Fig. 4| | |---|---| | | |

    #### PASOS PARA LA LIMPIEZA DEL FILTRO DE AIRE:

    CONFIGURACIÓN PREDETERMINADA DE FÁBRICA Cada vez que la unidad se desconecta y vuelve a conectar y/o en caso de una falla de alimentación, el tablero de circuitos electrónicos adopta automáticamente la siguiente configuración de fábrica: Configuración de humedad: 60% Velocidad del ventilador: Baja NOTA: En caso de una falla de alimentación, la unidad adoptará de forma predeterminada la última configuración del programa utilizada cuando se restablezca la alimentación.

  • 1) Extraiga con suavidad el filtro de aire (Fig.3).
  • 2) Limpie el filtro con la aspiradora o lávelo con agua caliente y séquelo con un paño seco.
  • 3) Vuelva a colocar el filtro de aire en su lugar y continúe utilizando el deshumidificador.
  • #### FUNCIONAMIENTO DEL TANQUE DE AGUA

    La instalación apropiada del tanque de agua es fundamental para que el deshumidificador funcione de forma confiable. El tanque de agua conserva el agua condensada acumulada, mediante un interruptor de seguridad controla el nivel de agua y el funcionamiento del proceso

    de deshumidificación. Cuando el tanque de agua está lleno y/o accidentalmente se desplace dentro del gabinete, el activador del interruptor de flotador (que se encuentra dentro del tanque) interrumpe el contacto con el interruptor de seguridad. Esta condición tiene como resultado

    el apagado inmediato del compresor y el sistema de motor del ventilador, lo que evita que la humedad se condense. NOTA: Nunca fuerce ni intente anular el sistema de interruptor de flotador (de seguridad) de nivel del agua.

    CUIDADO Y MANTENIMIENTO

    #### INSTRUCCIONES DE FUNCIONAMIENTO

    INSTALACIÓN DE LA MANGUERA DE DESAGÜE DE PVC Cuando el tanque de agua está lleno y/o en posición incorrecta dentro del gabinete, la luz roja indicadora de tanque lleno de agua se enciende y permanece encendida hasta el momento en que el tanque se vacía y/o reubica correctamente. Esta condición tendrá como resultado el apagado inmediato del sistema de deshumidificación (el compresor y el motor del ventilador dejan de funcionar). Esta es una característica de seguridad. Cuando el tanque de agua esté vacío y/o reubicado correctamente, el deshumidificador reanudará automáticamente su funcionamiento. NOTA: Pueden pasar varios minutos antes de que las condiciones de funcionamiento se reanuden.
