OPTION 2: CONTINUOUS DRAINING
Water can be automatically emptied into a floor drain by attaching
a water hose, garden hose, or dehumidifier drain hose to the
dehumidifier. (Garden hose must be
≥
φ
5/16" with a female
threaded end with ID:M=1". Hose not included.)
• Remove the plastic cover from the drain outlet on the back of
the unit and set aside. Attach the drain hose through the drain
outlet of the unit and lead the drain hose to the floor drain or a
suitable drainage facility. (See Fig. 8 and Fig. 9.)
• When you remove the plastic cover, if there is some water in
the back drain outlet of the unit, you must dry it. Make sure the
hose is secure so there are no leaks and the end of the hose is
level or down to let the water flow smoothly.
• A hose length of no more than 6 ft. is recommended as the hose must allow the water to continuously travel downward into
the drain.
• Make sure the hose is secure to avoid leakage.
• Direct the hose down toward the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will stop the water flow.
• Place the end of the hose into the drain and make sure the end of the hose is level or down to let the water flow
smoothly.
NEVER LET DRAIN HOSE GO UPWARD AGAINST GRAVITY.
• Place the bucket back in the unit in the proper position. The unit will not run if the bucket is not in the proper place.
• Select the desired humidity setting and fan speed on the unit for continuous draining to start.
NOTES:
• When the continuous draining feature is not being used, remove the drain hose from the outlet and dry the water in the
continuous drain hose outlet.
• CONTINUOUS mode and continuous draining are different. You do not need to be on CONTINUOUS mode to do
continuous draining. See pg. 7 for information about CONTINUOUS mode.
OPTION 2: CONTINUOUS DRAINING

counter-clockwise rotation.
