7. Condensate drain preparation
Whenever the unit must be removed, make sure to first drain the condensate collection tray to avoid annoying
water spills. During transport, always leave the air conditioner positioned upright on a flat surface and never rest it
on its front plastic part or on its rear part.
N.B.:Whenever it is impossible to send all the condensate created outside the room, see the paragraph "Auxiliary condensate drai-
nage" on Page 18.

Assemble the condensate drainage pipe by firmly pushing and twisting it towards the air conditioner as shown in Figures 2 and 3, bea-
ring in mind that incorrect fastening can cause water leakage.
IMPORTANT: the electric heating element must be inserted inside the condensate drainage in order to prevent water from freezing
inside the pipe in low-temperature installations.
Cut the length of pipe as required depending on how far it must protrude outside, bearing in mind that it must protrude from the air
hosing sealing grill by 1 cm.
IMPORTANT: make sure that the downward inclination of the condensate drainage outwards is in the range of from 0 to 5% (fig. 4):
open the unit's front panel and slowly pour water into the internal unit's condensate collection tray and then make sure that the pipe
prepared above drains this water correctly.
IMPORTANT: The cutting of the electric heating element is absolutely prohibited in order to avoid creating serious
operating problems (short-circuits or other malfunctions) to the unit.
In order to reduce the length of the electric heating element, just pull it inside the unit as shown in Figures 5 and 6.
