A question....(Non-TEF)

about dehumidifiers...

I was just lent one from the residential department as it's been really humid and I have having problems. As it's now fall, they turned off the air conditioner until next spring so therefore they lent me a dehumidifier just so I can have a dry dorm.

Now I have it running but what do I have to do next? Which modes are which? The settings it has is a continous mode and on the same knob at the bottom, there's Low to More Humidity settings. Which ones am I supposed to turn on as I'm drying out the air in my dorm?

The dehumidifier is a frigidaire dehumidifier 30 pint.

Yeah I just did look for the

Yeah I just did look for the manual. After I read it I had put it in it's correct settings and it's starting to dry out the air but it's now generating heat and the room is near 75 F and I'm used to my bedroom being down to 69f. Is this normal or it's not supposed to generate heat?
