- Dehumidifier: Power on the device, press and hold the "FILTER" button for more than 3 seconds until the device displays "AP", then click "Next". If there is no "FILTER" button, press "ION" or "POWER" instead.
Bluetooth local control setup
Some devices also allow local control via Bluetooth. If available for your appliance, it will appear at the bottom of your screen when plugged in and powered on, or at the top of the add device screen under "scanning nearby Bluetooth devices waiting for networking". Select your device and wait for the connection process to finish.
After the connection is complete, you will see the device control screen. Click on the "Connect WLAN and get more features" bubble to add wifi connected controls for your device. This will allow you to control the device while you are not within Bluetooth control range.
To complete Wireless network setup, ensure your mobile device is on the desired network. Enter the credentials and wait for the connection. Once complete, you can control your device wirelessly even if you are not near the device.
Share local control with a password
Another feature of Bluetooth local control is the ability to add a password for others to locally control the device. This can be enabled within the device's function menu. Just toggle the password login switch and enter your desired password. Now the device can be securely shared with others using the password.
