OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WATER REMOVAL
There are two ways to remove collected water from
the appliance.
1. Water Bucket
The dehumidifi er will automatically collect
condensed water in the water bucket. When the
bucket is full, the compressor and fan will turn off
and the full bucket indicator light will turn on.
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 fl oor.
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 dehumidifi er will not function without the bucket
installed.
Never tamper with or attempt to defeat the water
level fl oat system. Proper installation of the water
bucket is crucial in maintaining reliable operation.
2. Continuous Drain
Water can be removed from the appliance using the
continuous drain and a standard garden hose (not
provided).
Before using any automatic drain functions,
check that all drain ports are clean and free of
debris. There is one drain port inside the bucket
compartment of the appliance, remove the bucket
to see it. There is one drain port on the back of the
appliance where the drain hose attaches. 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 female threaded end of the garden
hose to the back of the appliance. Direct the other
end of the garden hose to a bucket or fl oor drain.
Ensure that the garden 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.
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.
Note: There is no drain pump in this appliance. The
continuous drain is fed by gravity alone.
