the timer.
• Try a different electrical outlet or check the wall switch.
• Make sure that the water tank is empty and placed in the
dehumidifier properly.
• The filter alert status is displaying the filter code. Replace
the corresponding filter and reset the filter lifetime counter
(see chapter "Replacing the filter").

but you have not replaced the corresponding filter, and the
appliance is now locked. In this case, replace the filter and
reset the filter lifetime counter.

back to the dehumidifier again.
