The air conditioner employs a proper drain method whereby the condensed water (moisture removed
from the air) is drained to the outside.

In very humid weather, (and for reverse cycle models in the reverse mode) excessive condensed
water removed from the air may cause some water to collect. To remove this excess water you can
install the drain pan as detailed below.

1. Take the drain pan which is located in the air discharge or on the barrier.
2. Remove the hole rubber from the base-pan(for some models).
3. Install the drain pan to the left corner of the cabinet with 4 (or 2) screws.
4. Connect the drain hose to the outlet located at the bottom of the drain pan.

You can purchase the drain hose or tubing locally to satisfy your particular needs.
(Drain hose is not supplied.)
