What to do when your Midea dehumidifier doesn't remove moisture
After you first plug in the dehumidifier, give it 3 to 4 days to reach and maintain the humidity level you set.
To allow adequate air flow, place the dehumidifier at least 6 inches from walls.
So the dehumidifier can work efficiently, clean the air filter and grille if it's dirty.
If the dehumidifier's capacity is too small for the space, it can't remove humidity adequately; consider adding another dehumidifier to the area.
Troubleshooting your Midea dehumidifier when it won't turn on
- Test that the electrical outlet works by plugging a lamp or small appliance into it. If there's no electricity to the outlet, reset the house circuit breaker.
- If the electrical outlet works, check the power cord for damage. Repair any damaged or broken wires in the power cord or replace the power cord.
- If the power cord is good, check the wiring connections on the electronic control board and user interface control board (with the dehumidifier unplugged). If wiring connections are okay, then you may need to replace the user interface board and/or the electronic control board.
