Common Questions
10 totalHow 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.
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.
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).
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.
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.
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.

#### OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
#### START OPERATION
|Fig. 1| | |---|---| | | |
WATER FULL INDICATOR LIGHT (RED) When the water tank is full and/or incorrectly positioned inside the cabinet, the water full red light turns on and remains on until such time that the tank is emptied and/or correctly re-positioned. This condition will result in the immediate shut down of the dehumidifying system (both compressor and fan motor operations are terminated). This is a safety feature. When the water tank is emptied and/or correctly re-positioned, the dehumidifier will resume operation automatically. NOTE: It may take several minutes before operating conditions resume.
#### BUCKET FULL LIGHT
|Fig. 2| | |---|---| | | |
FACTORY DEFAULT SETTING Each time the unit is disconnected/re-connected and/or in the event of a power failure, the electronic circuit board automatically defaults to the following factory setting: Humidity Setting: 60% Fan Speed: Low NOTE: In the event of a power failure, the unit will default to the last program setting that was used when power is restored.
#### WATER TANK OPERATION
Proper installation of the water tank is crucial in maintaining reliable dehumidifier operation. The water tank holds accumulated condensed water and, by means of a safety switch, controls both the water level and operation of the dehumidification process. When the water tank is full and/or
with the safety switch. This condition results in the immediate shut down of the compressor and fan motor system, preventing moisture from being condensed. NOTE:

#### OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DEFROST When the machine is operated at low temperatures (less than 64.4°F), the surface of the evaporator may accumulate a layer of frost which would reduce the efficiency of the machine. When this happens the machine will go into periodic defrost mode. The machine will operate in temperatures down to 41°F.The time taken to defrost may vary. If the machine freezes up, it should be turned off at the power supply and re-started. If the room temperature remains below 41°F the machine should be switched off.
DEHUMIDIFYING DEHUMIDIFYING MODE SELECTION:
#### AIR FILTER
|Fig. 3| | |---|---| | | |
This dehumidifier features a removable air filter. This filter is located at the back of the unit (behind the air intake grille) directly above the water tank compartment. A blocked / clogged air filter reduces air intake,impacting negatively on operating efficiency.
After 250 hours of operation, the indicator light will glow to remind you to clean the filter. Remove the filter and clean it. Press to turn off the light. See "AIR FILTER CLEANING STEPS".
IMPORTANT: Never operate the unit without the air filter in place. AIR FILTER CLEANING STEPS:

#### 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| | |---|---| | | |
DESHUMIDIFICACIÓN SELECCIÓN DEL MODO DE DESHUMIDIFICACIÓN:
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| | |---|---|
| | |
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.
#### 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.
