P
lace the dehumidifier in a suitable position, a hallway or landing are generally good sites.
The appliance must be positioned so that the air intake and air outlet grills are at least 50 cm
away from any wall or obstacle to ensure adequate ventilation.
Condensate can be drained in one of two ways:
A)
Draining into the tank
The condensate can be drained directly into the tank located inside the appliance (fig. 1).
The tank can be easily removed and has a handle making it simple to carry and empty.
B)
Continuous external draining
If the appliance is to be operated for long periods of time but you are unable to empty the tank,
you are recommended to use the continuous drain facility.
1) Remove the rubber bung from the spout (Fig. 2).
2) Make a hole in the tank inside the spout using a fine drill bit (8mm) (Fig. 2).
3) To fit the rubber hose to the spout, open the door, remove the tank, pass the drain hose
provided through the space between the door (at a slight angle) and the bottom of the
appliance, reposition the tank and fit the hose onto the spout (Fig. 3).
4) Close the door.
5) Make sure the hose is on the level otherwise the water will remain in the tank. Check
there are no kinks in the hose.
N.B.: Keep the rubber bung. You will need it to plug the hose or close the spout if you
revert to draining into the tank (see
point A).
