Meaco DRY-ARETE-ONE-20L user manual

The snowflake symbol on a dehumidifier typically indicates that the appliance is in a cooling mode. This means that in addition to removing moisture from the air, the dehumidifier is also capable of lowering the room temperature. The cooling mode can be useful in hot and humid environments, as it helps to create a more comfortable and pleasant atmosphere.

There could be a few reasons why the light is flashing on your Meaco Dry-arete-One 20L dehumidifier. Here are three common possibilities:
1. Full Water Tank: The flashing light might indicate that the water tank is full and needs to be emptied. In this case, simply remove the water tank, empty it, and reinsert it properly. Make sure the tank is securely in place to ensure the light stops flashing.
2. Delayed Start-Up: Some dehumidifiers have built-in delay functions to protect the compressor. If the light flashes for a set period when you first turn on the unit, it may be a normal startup procedure. The light should stop flashing after a few minutes, indicating that the dehumidifier is running properly.
3. Error/Fault Indication: If the light continues to flash after checking the water tank and allowing for the start-up delay, there might be an error or fault with the unit. Consult the user manual or contact Meaco customer support for specific troubleshooting steps or assistance.
If none of these suggestions resolve the issue, it's best to refer to the user manual or contact the manufacturer for further guidance.

Cleaning a Meaco 20l dehumidifier is a relatively simple process. Here are the steps to follow:
1. Unplug the dehumidifier: Before starting any cleaning process, make sure to unplug the dehumidifier from the power source to avoid any potential electrical hazards.
2. Remove the water collection container: Take out the water collection container from the dehumidifier and empty it. Rinse it with warm water and mild detergent to remove any dirt or residue inside. Allow it to dry thoroughly before reinserting it back into the unit.
3. Clean the air filter: Most dehumidifiers, including the Meaco 20l, have an air filter that collects dust, debris, and other particles. It's important to clean or replace this air filter regularly to maintain optimal performance. Remove the filter according to the manufacturer's instructions, and vacuum it or wash it using warm water and mild detergent. Once it's clean, dry it completely before reinstalling it in the dehumidifier.
4. Wipe down the exterior: Use a soft cloth or sponge dampened with mild detergent to wipe the exterior surfaces of the dehumidifier. Pay attention to any particularly dirty or sticky areas. Avoid using any abrasive cleaners or materials that can scratch the surface.
5. Clean the condenser coils (if necessary): If the condenser coils appear dirty or clogged, you may need to clean them. Refer to the product manual or manufacturer's instructions on how to access the coils. Use a soft brush or a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove any dust or debris carefully. Be gentle when cleaning the coils to avoid damaging them.
6. Reassemble and plug in the dehumidifier: Once all the cleaning is complete and all the components are dry, reassemble the dehumidifier. Make sure the water collection container is properly inserted back into the unit. Plug the dehumidifier back into a power source and resume normal operation.
Remember to consult the Meaco 20l dehumidifier's instruction manual for any specific cleaning recommendations or guidelines provided by the manufacturer.
