sdfsim,

I understand you are having trouble with your dehumidifier not removing moisture from the air. There are a few possible resolutions for this concern.

•Humidity setting is too high. Press the HUMIDITY button to a lower number, rotate knob clockwise to a lower setting, or choose CONTINUOUS for maximum dryness

•Dehumidifier has been installed or restarted recently. The higher the moisture in the room air, the longer it takes for the room air to become dry.

•Dehumidifier does not have sufficient clearance to operate. Air flow to front grill is blocked. See "Selecting a Location" in Owner’s Manual.

•Room temperature is too low. Unit will not operate satisfactorily if the room temperature is below 41°F (5°C). See "Operating Conditions." in Owner’s Manual.

•A larger capacity or second dehumidifier may be required to handle moisture.

Best Regards,
