Features
WHAT IS A DEHUMIDIFIER?

Your Breville dehumidifier is designed to reduce and maintain the level of humidity in the air, as well as to prevent condensation and mildew on the ceilings and walls.

HOW DOES A DEHUMIDIFIER WORK?

Your Breville dehumidifier regulates the relative humidity of your home by drawing moist, humid air from the surrounding area and passing it over cooled evaporator coils causing the moisture to condense into water.The water is dispensed into the water tank or drainage hose, while the now non-humid air is rewarmed and passed back into the room.

WHAT IS RELATIVE HUMIDITY?

Relative humidity is the amount of water vapour in the air and it is commonly expressed as a percentage of the maximum amount of water vapour that the air can hold at a given temperature. A comfortable %RH level is commonly considered to be between 40-60%RH.

Assembly

WATER DRAINAGE:

During the process of dehumidification, water is created and needs to be expelled from the dehumidifier. This dehumidifier offers two options to drain this water

REMOVABLE WATER TANK (with Empty Me warning)

The removable water tank will collect water until it reaches the water level indicator when the tank is full. Once full, the EMPTY ME light on the control panel will illuminate red and the dehumidifier will cease dehumidification until the water tank is emptied.

  1. Remove the water tank as per the water tank cleaning instructions in the Care, Cleaning & Storage section of this book.

NOTE: The dehumidifier will not operate if the tank is not installed correctly, even if the drainage hose is in use.WARNING: Water from the dehumidifier is not suitable for drinking. Do not drink this water and do not serve it to animals or use to water plants. 

CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE (hose drainage using gravity):

The continuous drainage outlet allows water to drain without having to monitor and empty the water tank. Ensure the hose (included) is properly inserted before starting the dehumidifier.

  1. Remove the water tank to access the hose connection outlet located at the back of the unit.
  2. Insert the hose into the connection outlet, ensuring that the hose is slid right to the back of the connection outlet.
  3. As the drainage is dependent on gravity, for the dehumidifier to drain correctly, no part of the hose should sit higher than the lose connection outlet.
  4. Place the other end of the hose into a water drain, being careful that it cannot inadvertently come loose when water starts to drain.
  5. Carefully replace the water tank with the hose situated into the hose groove.
  6. The dehumidifier will drain through the hose while installed.

WARNING: Ensure the hose is secure in both the hose connection and the drainage outlet.

DEFROST

This dehumidifier is equipped with an automatic defrost. The evaporator may start auto-defrosting if operating in a room temperature that is less than 23°C.

  1. If the DEFROST light turns on, defrosting has automatically started. The fan will operate on HIGH during defrost and dehumidification will stop.
  2. Automatic defrost will operate for up to 5 minutes.

WARNING: Do not disconnect the power or turn off the unit during defrost.

Care, Cleaning & Storage

WARNING: Before cleaning or maintenance of the dehumidifier, ensure the power is switched off at the outlet and the plug is removed.

CLEANING YOUR DEHUMIDIFIER
  1. Keep the unit upright when cleaning.
  2. Wipe the dehumidifier housing, control panel and air inlet and outlet grilles with a soft, dry cloth.
  3. To remove dirt that may have built up on the housing body and air inlet grille, wipe with a damp cloth only. Do not use on the control panel.

WARNING: Do not clean the control panel with a damp cloth. Do not clean the unit with gasoline, thinner or liquid detergent as chemical substances may damage the humidifier screen or change the colour of the dehumidifier.NOTE: Using a brush may scratch the dehumidifier. Do not use any objects that may scratch the unit.

WATER TANK CLEANING

NOTE: The dehumidifier cannot operate if the tank is full or is not installed correctly. Clean the water tank once a week if used regularly.

  1. Remove the water tank from the back of the dehumidifier by holding the sides and pulling outwards.
  2. For the Smart Dry Plus™ Dehumidifier only (LAD300) remove the lid before cleaning. Place the tank on a dry, level surface. Flip the handle on the water tank cover until the grooves in the handle match the grooves in the handle holders. Pull outwards on both sides of the handle to disengage. Once the handle has been removed, carefully pull upwards on the tank lid to remove.
  3. Tip any excess water from the water tank into a sink or drain, then rinse the inside of the tank with clean water.
  4. Wipe any water on the outside of the tank with a dry cloth and replace the water tank lid and handle back onto the water tank (LAD300 only).
  5. Replace the water tank back into the dehumidifier.

WARNING: Water in the water tank is not suitable for drinking. Do not drink this water, and do not serve to animals or use to water plants.

FILTER CLEANING:

The air inlet grille at the back of the dehumidifier also acts as the filter holder. The filter includes a mesh dust filter to capture larger airborne particles, and a black carbon filter for finer debris and to help reduce odours and smoke.

WARNING: It is important to keep the filter clean as a dirty filter may cause a reduction in the dehumidifiers performance.NOTE: Clean the filter at least monthly, or more often if in frequent use.

FILTER FREQUENT CLEANING
  1. Remove the air inlet grille from the back of the dehumidifier as per the illustration below.
  2. With the dust filter and carbon filter still attached to the air inlet grille, use a handtool on a vacuum cleaner (such as a brush or upholstery tool) to clean both sides. Alternatively, lightly tap the grille over a garbage receptacle to loosen the dust.
  3. Replace the air inlet grille onto the dehumidifier. Ensure the grille clicks into place correctly before using the dehumidifier.
FILTER HEAVY-DUTY CLEANING:

If dirt and dust has built up, and a simple clean (as instructed above) does not remove all the debris, it is recommended that the filters be separated for cleaning.

  1. Remove the air inlet grille from the back of the dehumidifier.
  2. To separate the mesh dust filter from the grille, pull outwards using the tab in the middle of the filter to disengage from the clips on the grille.
  3. The black carbon filter sits between the dust filter and the air inlet grille as per the above illustration.
  4. Use a hand-tool on a vacuum cleaner (such as a brush or upholstery tool) to clean the dust from both filters, or tap the filters lightly over a garbage receptacle to loosen the dust from the filter.
  5. If the dirt and dust has built up on the mesh dust filter, hand wash in warm, soapy water, then rinse well and dry before replacing.WARNING: Never wet the carbon filter. This filter can be cleaned by simply tapping over a garbage receptacle.
  6. Place the carbon filter back into the air inlet grille, then place the dust filter over the carbon filter by pressing firmly downwards to clip into the grille.
  7. Replace the air inlet grille back onto the dehumidifier.
STORAGE
  1. Disconnect the dehumidifier from the power outlet.
  2. Ensure the water tank is empty and cleaned as per instruction.
