Operating Instructions
WATER TANK OPERATION
The water tank holds accumulated condensed water and, by means of a safety switch, controls both the water level and
operation of the dehumidifi cation process.
When the water tank is full and/or accidentally displaced inside the cabinet, the fl oat switch actuator (inside the tank)
breaks contact with the safety switch. This condition results in the immediate shut down of the compressor and fan motor
system, preventing moisture from being condensed.
Note: On some models, the fan will continue to run for approximately 2-3 minutes after the unit has stopped and
the bucket has been removed. As a result, water may drip from the tray onto the base of the unit, and then onto
the fl oor. Please ensure that you protect your wood and carpet from such leakage.
REMOVING COLLECTED WATER
1. Pull out the bucket a little.
2. Hold both sides of the
bucket with even strength and
pull it out from the unit.
3. Pour the water out.
Remove the plastic
cover by turning it
counter-clockwise.
Drain hose
Never tamper with or attempt to defeat the water fl oat
switch system. Proper installation of the water tank is
crucial in maintaining reliable dehumidifi er operation.
There are two ways to remove collected water:
1. Use the bucket
When the bucket becomes full, the unit will beep 8 times, the bucket full indicator
light will fl ash, and the digital display shows P2. The compressor turns off and the
fan turns off after drying the water from the condenser for 30 seconds.
To empty the full bucket, grip the left and right handles securely, and carefully pull
the bucket straight out so water does not spill. Do not put the tank on the fl oor
because the bottom of the bucket is uneven; the bucket will fall and cause water
to spill. Discard the water and return the bucket to the unit. The bucket must be
placed and properly positioned for the dehumidifi er to operate.
Note: When you remove the bucket, do not touch any parts inside of the unit. Be
sure to push the bucket gently all the way into the unit; failing to push it in securely
may cause the unit not to operate. When you remove the bucket, if there is some
water inside the unit you must dry it.
Note: The bucket full indicator light will fl ash if the bucket is not properly installed.
2. Continuous draining:
Water can be automatically emptied into a fl oor drain by attaching the unit to an ID
≥ 5/16" water hose with a ID:M=1 female threaded end (not included, a standard
garden hose works well). Install the drain hose. Remove the plastic cover from the
back drain outlet of the unit and set it aside.
Install the female threaded end of the water hose into the adaptor A, then lead the
water hose to the fl oor drain or a suitable drainage facility. Make sure the hose is
secure so there are no leaks. Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that
there are no kinks that will stop the water from fl owing. Place the end of the hose
into the drain and make sure the end of the hose is level or declining to let the
water fl ow smoothly. Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed on the unit
for continuous draining to start.
