Emptying the Water Bucket

WARNING
Sickness Hazard
Do not drink water collected in water bucket.
Doing so can result in sickness.
When the water collection bucket is full, the Water Bucket
Full indicator will light and the dehumidifier will turn off. The
dehumidifier will not function until the water bucket is emptied
and replaced.
When the bucket is removed from the machine, the compressor
and fan will both turn off, but the fan will continue to run for a few
seconds. This is normal. The dehumidifier will not be removing
moisture from the air at this time.
1.
Remove water bucket
Remove the water bucket by pulling straight out from the bottom
front of the dehumidifier. The bucket features a convenient carry
handle for easier transport.
NOTE: Do not place a full bucket on the floor, as the bottom is
uneven and the bucket may tip.
2.

NOTE: Hold the water bucket with both hands when emptying.
Empty the water bucket into a sink or drain.
Slide the water bucket back into the dehumidifier.

The Continuous mode allows the unit to run continuously
(depending on the selected humidity level) without having to
empty the water bucket.
To drain continuously, attach a hose (not included) for water
drainage into a floor drain.
The drain fitting uses a standard garden hose connector.
The drain hose must be below the drain port on the back
of the dehumidifier to ensure proper drainage.
NOTE: Use a GHT or "garden hose thread", which has an outer
diameter of 1
inch).

Place the dehumidifier on a level surface. Unscrew the cap on the
bucket
back of the unit to access the drain fitting.

IMPORTANT: In order to connect the drain hose, you must
remove the drain plug from the unit and pull the internal
connection pipe out until you hear or feel it click twice.
Thread the drain hose (not included) onto the drain fitting on the
dehumidifier. Lead the rest of the hose to a floor drain and cut
to length (no longer than 6' [1,82 m] long). Make sure water is
draining through the hose and not the bucket and that there are
no kinks or knots in the garden hose. Turn on the unit and press
the Mode button until set to Continuous mode.
NOTE: The unit will automatically revert back to the drainage
bucket if the hose has not been installed properly.
