Its a condensation sensor...senses "short" circuit conditions like...ice or ionized water.

Reassemble and reset dehumidifier per unavailable service manual. If you received one, would love the link!
Otherwise (unplugged) push power button and plug in appliance. Will power cycle and run self test.
Hopefully it works by now!
The dehumidifier has a non-removable tray under the coils (they look like radiators) that collects and drains the water away. If the tray or drain gets clogged with dirt or slime the water doesn't drain away well. Some water is picked up by the fan and is blown out the vent. Take the covers off the machine and give everything a good cleaning. If you get water on any electrical parts, let the machine dry thoroughly before plugging in.
