PUMP DRAINING

P

 

Water  can  automatically  be  emptied  into  a  floor  drain  or  an  appropriate  drainage 
facility by attaching a pump drain hose

*

 to the pump drain hose outlet on the rear side 

of the unit. 
Installation Steps 

1.  Remove  the  continuous  drain  hose  and  the  drain 

hose subassembly from the unit.

 

2.  Install the plastic cover to the continuous hose outlet 

of the unit by using the two screws included.

 

3. 

Insert the pump drain hose at least ½’’ into the pump 
drain hose outlet.

  

4.  Make sure the hose is secure so there are no leaks.

 

5.  Lead  the  water  hose  to  a  floor  drain  or  an 

appropriate drainage facility. 

 

6.  Make  sure  there  are  no  kinks  in  the  hose  that  stop 

water from flowing properly.

 

7.  Place  the  end  of  the  hose  into  the  drain  and  make 

sure the end of the hose is level or pointed down to 
let water flow smoothly.

  Do  not  let  the  hose  point 

up. 

8.  Press  the  Pump  Button  to  enable  the  pump 

operation. The  Pump Light  will illuminate to indicate 
the  pump  operation  is  enabled.  The  pump  will 
automatically turn on when the bucket is full.

 

NOTE:  The  pump  operation  may  be  loud  when  it 
starts working for the first 3-5 minutes.

 

 

9.  Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed on 

the unit to start normal operation.

 

10.  To  remove  pump  drain  hose,  press  the  hose  in  to 

release then pull to remove the pump drain hose. Be 
careful when removing the hose to make sure water 
does not spill or drip out onto the floor.

 

NOTES:  

o

 

Do  not  use  this  operation  when  the  outdoor 
temperature  is  less  than  or  equal  to  32°F/0°C. 
Water  may  freeze  inside  the  hose  blocking  the 
flow of water and causing the unit to fail. 

o

 

The 

highest  water  can  be  pumped  is  6’  (2 

meters). 

o

 

Make  sure  to  empty  the  bucket  once  a  week 
while using the pump draining feature. 

o

 

When  the  pump  draining  feature  is  not  being 
used,  remove  the  pump  drain  hose  from  the 
outlet. 

o

 

If  the  Pump  Light  blinks,  an  error  with  the 
pump  has  occurred.
  If  this  happens,  turn  off 
and unplug the unit. Do the following things: 
1.  Make sure the pump filter is clean. To clean, 

remove the bucket and take down the pump 
filter. 

2.  Make  sure  the  pump  drain  hose  is  properly 

connected and secured to the unit. 

3.  Empty any water inside the bucket. 
4.  Reinstall  the  pump  hose  if  removed  and 

properly place the bucket back into the unit. 

5.  If error repeats, call for service.
