Main Functions

The main functions of the Kosmen KM-25N dehumidifier include:

Dehumidification

Removes excess moisture and balances humidity at a safe level, ensuring the space remains dry and preventing mold and dampness.

Clothes Drying (Dry Mode)

Dries clothes using airflow that has already removed moisture while balancing the humidity of the surrounding environment. This prevents clothes from re-absorbing moisture and helps them dry without damaging or fading the fabric.

Once connected, users can:

  • Adjust settings
  • Monitor ambient humidity
  • Set timers or schedules for automatic operation

Operating Instructions

When first starting, the machine will be in standby mode. Press the power button to switch to running mode. The first operation will be in continuous dehumidification mode, with the motor running at low speed and the continuous dehumidification indicator light illuminated. If the machine is turned back on after being turned off, the programmed humidity settings will remain the same as before the power off.

Press the "Humidity" button. The humidity can be changed from 70%, 60%, 50% to 40% in continuous dehumidification mode. The corresponding indicator light will illuminate. If the preset humidity is higher than the current ambient humidity + 5%, the machine will stop after 5 seconds. When the preset humidity is lower than the current ambient temperature, the machine will resume normal operation.

How the Dehumidifier Works

  1. After the compressor protection delay of 3 minutes, if the indoor humidity is greater than or equal to the set humidity + 5% RH, the compressor will start operating again.
  2. When the indoor humidity is lower than the set humidity − 5% RH, the compressor will stop.
  3. When the indoor humidity is between (set humidity − 5% RH) and (set humidity + 5% RH), the compressor will maintain its current operating state.
  4. If the compressor stops due to humidity reduction, the fan will stop after running for 3 minutes.
  5. When the machine beeps three times and the water full indicator lights up, the unit will stop operating.
    Please empty the water tank and reinstall it properly.
    If the water full indicator remains on, check whether the water tank is installed correctly.
    The machine will resume operation once the indicator turns off.
  6. Defrost Function
    After the machine has been running for 30 minutes, the coil sensor detects the pipe temperature.
    • If the pipe temperature is ≤ 1°C for 3 seconds, the compressor will stop, the fan will continue running, and defrost mode will begin. The defrost indicator will light up.
    • When the temperature sensor detects that the coil temperature is ≥ 5°C for 3 minutes, the defrost process will end.

Water Level Indicator

Water Level Float

Do not remove the float from the water tank. If the float is removed, the machine will not turn on or start operating.

Reinstalling the Water Tank

When placing the water tank back into the compartment, use both hands to push it firmly into the correct position. If the tank is not installed properly, the machine will not start or water may overflow during operation.

Cleaning the Water Tank

If the water tank becomes dirty, clean it with cold or warm water. Do not use detergents, chemically treated dust cloths, gasoline, benzene, thinners, or other solvents, as these may damage the water tank.

Continuous Drainage

The machine has a drainage outlet that can be connected to a plastic hose (11 mm inner diameter) for continuous water drainage.

When using the drainage hose, do not immerse the end of the hose in water. This may cause pressure in the hose if it is too long or if the drainage path becomes blocked, which can prevent proper water flow and lead to water leakage.
