Depressing this button activates the condensate pump. This can be used to
empty the pump reservoir. The button must be held depressed until drain line
is clear of water, this is when pump reservoir is empty. The dehumidifier must
be switched "ON".
NOTE: Depress the switch long enough to perform the function. Prolonged
depression of the switches could harm the equipment.
(D) Hot Gas On Demand: (Red button - some models)
Depressing this button activates the hot gas defrost system. This can be used
to clear the evaporator coil of frost if required. The button must be held
depressed until the evaporator coil is cleared of frost. The dehumidifier must
be switched "ON".
NOTE: Depress the switch long enough to perform the function. Prolonged
depression of the switches could harm the equipment.
