water to drip continuously into the container as it might easily overflow.
3. Remove the drain knob. the water will flow in the container. When this is nearly full,
replace the plug to stop the water flow and empty it. Repeat this process until all
water has been removed.
4. Replace the drain knob. The warning light should not flash any longer.
