WATER DRAINAGE
When the unit is in cooling mode, the air humidity is converted in water used to cool down
the unit. When the unit is used in extremely humid environment, exceeding water will be
drained into a pan located at the bottom of the unit. When the water pan is full, the
compressor will stop but the fan will continue to run.
When the water pan is full, the unit will display “FULL” on the control panel. To resume
operation, empty the water pan as per the following:
1.
Turn the unit off. Do not move the unit when the water pan is full.
2.
Place a 2L container (or the drain pan) under the drainage port at the back of the unit.
3.
Remove the rubber plug from the drainage port. The condensate water will drain out
automatically. When the 2L container (or the drain pan) is full, put the rubber plug back
into the drainage port to stop the water from draining out. Empty the drain container or
the pan. Repeat until all the water is completely drained out.
4.
Once the water container or pan is empty, replace the rubber plug into the drain hole
firmly. To prevent overflow, do not allow the water to drip continuously in the drain pan.
IN HEATING MODE, USE THE DRAIN TUBE TO EMPTY THE WATER PAN:
1.
Remove the rubber plug and keep for future use.
2.
Connect the drain tube into the drain hole. Place the drain pan at the end of the drain
tube; water will automatically drain out during operation.
•Make sure that the height of the drain tube end is not more than 40 mm (2”) from the floor
during heating operation. If it is higher, the water cannot efficiently drain out and the unit
may stop running.
