OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WATER REMOVAL
There are two ways to remove collected water from
the appliance.
1. Water Bucket
The dehumidifier will automatically collect
condensed water in the water bucket. When the
bucket is full or displaced inside the unit, the float
actuator inside the bucket breaks contact with
the safety switch. The compressor will shut down,
preventing moisture from being condensed. The fan
will continue to run for approximately 2-3 minutes.
Water may drip onto the base of the appliance and
onto the floor. Make sure to protect flooring when
emptying the water bucket.
Never tamper with or attempt to defeat the water
level float system. Proper installation of the water
bucket is crucial in maintaining reliable operation.
To empty the bucket, gently remove it from the
appliance by gripping both sides and pulling
outward. Be cautious when removing the bucket, it
will be full and can be heavy.
Do not place the water bucket directly on the floor.
The bottom of the bucket is uneven and it will fall
over and spill water.
Empty the bucket and replace it in the appliance.
The dehumidifier will not function without the bucket
installed.
The bucket should be cleaned every few weeks to
prevent mold growth. Only use mild detergent to
clean the bucket; do not use harsh chemicals or
bleach.
2. Continuous Drain
Water can be removed from the appliance using the
continuous drain and the provided drain hose.
Before using any automatic drain functions, check
that all drain ports are clean and free of debris.
There are either one or two drain ports inside the
bucket compartment of the appliance, remove the
bucket to see them. There are one or two drain ports
on the back of the appliance where the drain hoses
attach. All drain ports should be cleaned with a
pipe cleaner prior to use.
Note: Do not clean the drain ports with anything
more rigid than a pipe cleaner as this can damage
the appliance.
Note: If the drain ports are clogged or dirty it
can cause water to leak from the bottom of the
appliance.
Remove the cover from the continuous drain outlet
and attach the provided continuous drain connector
and the provided drain hose. Direct the other end of
the hose to a bucket or floor drain.
Ensure that the hose is not bent and goes straight
down from the back of the appliance. The
continuous drain is only activated by gravity so any
bends or upward motion in the hose will stop the
water from draining.
Note: A garden hose can also be used as a
continuous drain hose. The garden hose should be
cut so that it is no more than 1.8 m (6 feet) long.
If the drain hose is too long water may not drain
completely which can lead to stagnant water and
mildew build up inside the hose.
