USING THE DEHUMIDIFIER
Removing Collected Water
There are 3 ways to remove collected water:
Use the bucket.
When the bucket is removed, the unit will shut
off. Empty and replace the bucket.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use the hose if using the bucket to collect
water. When the hose is connected, water will flow through it
onto the floor instead of into the bucket.
NOTES:
•
Do not remove the bucket while the dehumidifier is operating
or if it has just stopped operating. This might cause some
water to drip from the drain pan.
•
The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate.
Use a hose.
Water can be automatically emptied into a floor
drain by attaching a garden water hose (not included).
1. Remove the bucket from the front of the unit.
2. Open the drain cover on the side of the unit.
3. Thread a garden hose (not supplied) onto the nozzle, cut to
length, and lead it to the floor drain.
4. Replace the bucket in the unit.
NOTE:
The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate.
Use the internal pump.
Water can be automatically emptied
into a remote location by attaching the included pump hose.
1. Attach the pump hose to the hose connector by pushing the
tube fitting into the connector until it fits into place (should
not be able to remove the hose when pulled).
2. Position the hose discharge to the desired location.
3. Make sure the pump is activated. To activate the pump, press
and hold the Pump button for 3 seconds. The Pump indicator
light will flash then remain illuminated once the 3 seconds are
complete.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure the condensate hose is properly
connected and is not kinked, bent or cracked as this may cause
water to flow onto the floor. The bucket must also be fully
seated for the pump to work properly. Do not operate the
machine if the room temperature is 41°F or below.
NOTE:
Maximum lift height is 16ft.
Always make sure the water bucket is locked into place on the dehumidifier.
