Possible Causes

Faulty humidity sensor, Unit undersized for room, Air leaks or open windows, Sensor placement affected by drafts

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Steps:

  • Room sealing: Close windows and doors. Reduce external moisture sources.
  • Check sensor: Clean and, if necessary, replace the humidity sensor module as described for E3.
  • Verify capacity: Compare the Cecotec dehumidifier's rated capacity (liters/day) with room size and moisture load. A small unit may not reach the setpoint in a large or very damp space.
  • Placement: Place the unit away from direct drafts or heat sources that can skew sensor readings.
