2. സജ്ജീകരണവും ഇൻസ്റ്റാളേഷനും

Proper setup is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your dehumidifier. Follow these steps carefully.

2.1 Initial Placement and Stabilization

• Place the dehumidifier on a level, stable surface in the desired location (e.g., crawl space, basement).
• Allow the unit to sit upright for a minimum of 2 hours before plugging it in. This allows the refrigerant to settle.
• Adjust the integrated foot pads to ensure the unit is level and stable, minimizing vibration and noise during operation.

2.2 ഡ്രെയിനേജ് ഓപ്ഷനുകൾ

The Sentinel HD35P offers two drainage methods: gravity drain and pump drainage. Choose the method that best suits your installation environment.

ഗ്രാവിറ്റി ഡ്രെയിൻ:

• Ensure the unit is positioned so that the gravity drain outlet is lower than the drainage point.
• Remove the rubber stopper from the side drainage outlet.
• Connect the larger diameter hose (typically provided) to this outlet.
• Direct the hose to a suitable drain, ensuring a continuous downward slope to prevent water backup.
• The "Drain" button on the control panel must be turned off for gravity drainage.

പമ്പ് ഡ്രെയിനേജ്:

• Plug the side drainage outlet with the rubber stopper.
• Insert the smaller diameter hose (typically provided) into the front drainage outlet.
• Direct the hose to your desired drainage location. The internal pump can lift water up to 19.6 feet vertically.
• Press the "Drain" button on the control panel to activate the pump.

• SET ബട്ടൺ: Adjusts the desired humidity level (25%-80% Relative Humidity).
• DRAIN Button: Activates the internal condensate pump for drainage.
• GPP MODE Button: Switches between RH (Relative Humidity) mode and GPP (Grains Per Pound) moisture content mode.
• ഡിസ്പ്ലേ: Shows current humidity level or error codes.
• സൂചകങ്ങൾ: Power, Continuous (Cont.), Pump, and GPP lights indicate current operating status.

4. പരിപാലനം

Regular maintenance ensures the efficiency and extends the lifespan of your ALORAIR Sentinel HD35P dehumidifier.

4.1 MERV-1 Filter Maintenance

The MERV-1 filter protects internal components from dust and other particles, while also improving air quality. Regular cleaning or replacement is recommended.

• പരിശോധന: Check the filter regularly for dust and debris buildup.
• വൃത്തിയാക്കൽ: The filter can be washed. It is recommended to replace the filter after 2 washes or every 3 months, depending on air quality and usage.
• മാറ്റിസ്ഥാപിക്കൽ: To replace, slide out the old filter and insert a new one.

4.2 Condensate Pump Maintenance

If using the internal condensate pump, periodic cleaning of the pump screen and float is necessary to prevent blockages and ensure proper operation.

• Disconnect power to the unit before performing any maintenance.
• Access the pump compartment (refer to the detailed service manual for specific instructions).
• Carefully remove and clean the pump screen and float mechanism. Ensure no debris obstructs the float's movement.
• Reassemble the pump and compartment, ensuring all connections are secure.

5. പ്രശ്‌നപരിഹാരം

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your dehumidifier.

5.1 പിശക് കോഡുകൾ

• E4 പിശക് കോഡ്: This typically indicates a pump issue.
• Check if the pump screen or float is clogged (refer to Section 4.2 for pump maintenance).
• Ensure the drainage hose is not kinked or blocked.
• Verify that the pump is properly connected and functioning.

5.2 ജല ചോർച്ച

• Leaking from the unit: This can occur if the pump fails while configured for pump drainage, causing the internal condenser tank to overflow.
• Immediately disconnect power to the unit.
• Inspect the internal pump and drainage connections for loose hoses or missing clamps.
• If the pump has failed, consider switching to gravity drain mode by removing the rubber stopper and ensuring a proper downward slope for the hose.
• Allow the unit to dry completely before attempting to restart or troubleshoot further.
• Drain hose connection issues: Ensure the supplied compression nut and hose are correctly fitted to the unit's nipple. Improper fit can lead to leaks.

5.3 Unit Not Dehumidifying

• Check if the desired humidity level is set higher than the current ambient humidity.
• എയർ ഫിൽറ്റർ വൃത്തിയുള്ളതാണെന്നും തടസ്സമില്ലെന്നും ഉറപ്പാക്കുക.
• Verify that the unit is not in a defrost cycle.
• Confirm that the unit is receiving power and the fan is operating.
