3.2 Automatic shut off and float switch
When the water tank is full, the dehumidifier is shut off automatically. The indicator light at the front of
the dehumidifier will switch to red to show that the water tank should be emptied.
The float consists of a white plastic cylinder which hangs on two arms. The float rests on the surface, so it
is lifted when the water level rises. When the float reaches a certain height, the dehumidifier responds to
this and shuts down automatically to prevent overflow from the tank.
Please proceed as follows:
1.
Disconnect the dehumidifier from the power supply.
2.
Empty the water tank.
3.
Push the water tank in until it touches the float.
4.
Raise the forward edge of the water tank from below so that the whole water tank is slightly slanted.
5.
Push the water tank home. The float should now be in the tankr instead of being stuck behind it.
6.
Reconnect the dehumidifier to the power supply.
3.3 Drainage of water
The dehumidifier is fitted with a hose connection. By attaching a hose to the dehumidifier the condensed
water can be drained directly away.
3.3.1 Using the hose:
1.
Disconnect the dehumidifier from the power source and remove the water reservoir to give access to
the drip tray.
2.
Attach the hose coupling to the thread on the dehumidifier and lead the hose to a drainage outlet.
Check that the hose is not above the level of the drip tray.
3.
Connect the dehumidifier to the power source.
3.3.2 Without hose, directly to a drain outlet:
1.
Disconnect the dehumidifier from the power source and remove the water reservoir.
2.
Place the dehumidifier directly over the drain so that the dehumidified water can drip through the
hole at the base of the dehumidifier and into the drain.
3.
Connect the dehumidifier to the power source.
