I need a manuel for the danby dehumidifier model #DDR557HE. I dont know what the symbols mean

I FOUND SEVERAL PLACES TO GET ANSWERS TO THIS QUESTION(S)
1. I LOGGED INTO DANBY.COM AND THERE IS A FAQ SECTION, YOU CAN DO THIS AS WELL.

2. FOR THE MANUAL I COULD LOCATE IT AT MANUALSDRIVE.COM
THEY HAVE YOUR SPECIFIC MANUAL.

well there are three things i know of that can cause this :
1st your filters are dirty needs cleaning .
2nd your humistat is set too low , unit runs too long with out a cool down period , 70% rh is a "normal" setting
3rd in older units that might be getting up there in years its possible that some of the cooling gas has leaked out and this causes freeze ups

Here is a link to a generic Danby user's manual which should help out since they all use the same basic controls:

I wish I spoke more than a few words of French. Never the less, the following link in French, is where you can find it. Search for the model number of your unit and from there (if it pops up. They don't always do) go to that page. If it doesn't click on Dehumidifiers and look for the one you have. Click on it, and when the next page opens, click on Support. The Owner's Manual in French can then be downloaded & printed for future reference.

I hope this helped you and thanks for choosing FixYa.

All Danby dehumidifiers, regardless of the model number operate the same way.
The link below to a 50 pint model should provide all the info you need.

However, I think you'll find that draining into a bucket is not an option. As the hose drain relies entirely on gravity to drain. So, it will not drain down and then up into a bucket. The hose drainage method, is designed to drain into a floor drain or a sump.

Hope this helps you.

Here is a link to the Owner's Manual you are looking for.

Hope this helped you. Please let me know. Thanks.

The Model Number you listed is either incorrect or has been discontinued. As it does not show up in my data base for Danby. Please check the number again and advise.

Thanks.
