Dehumidifier display shows incorrect humidity readings compared to a separate hygrometer.

Safety: Unplug before accessing the sensor.

• Verify with multiple meters: Confirm the discrepancy using at least one reliable external hygrometer.
• Clean sensor area: Locate the humidity sensor and gently clean around its opening with a dry brush. Do not soak the sensor.
• Relocate unit: Ensure the dehumidifier is not placed in a corner or behind furniture where air is stagnant.
• Replace sensor: If readings remain consistently off by a large margin, replace the humidity sensor module.
