Water Bucket - Danby DDR070BBPBDB Manual Del Propietário

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 or displaced inside the unit, the fl oat
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 fl oor. Make sure to protect fl ooring when
emptying the water bucket.
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.
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.
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 a standard garden hose (not
provided).
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 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.
