WATER DRAINAGE
When the water tank is full, the unit will stop automatically. When this happens the
TANK FULL
light will
illuminate on the control panel.
NOTE:
Only empty the water tank when it is full or before moving or storing the unit.
There are two ways to dispense collected water.
1. USE THE TANK
When the tank is full, the unit will automatically stop running, and the Tank Full indicator will flash.
Slowly pull out the tank. Grip the tank by its handle securely, and carefully pull it out. Empty the water tank
and reinsert it into the dehumidifier. The tank must be in place and securely seated for the dehumidifier to
operate again. The dehumidifier will re-start when the tank is restored to its correct position.
NOTES:
When you remove the water tank, do not touch sensors or any parts which are situated behind tank. Doing
so may damage the product. Be sure to push the tank gently all the way into the unit. Banging the bucket
against anything or failing to push it in securely into place may cause the unit not to operate.
Do not remove any parts from the water tank or tank enclosure. The water full sensor will no longer be able
to detect the water level correctly and water may leak from the water tank.
2. CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE
Water can be automatically plumbed in or drained into a sink, a larger container or through the wall into an
outside drain by attaching a pipe to the unit (10 mm internal diameter) (not included). Insert the pipe into the
drain outlet at the back of the unit as shown here.
Make sure the connection between pipe and the drain outlet is tight and does not leak. Then direct the pipe
to a suitable drainage point. This unit uses gravity to dispose of water hence the drain should be lower than
the water outlet on the unit. Put the tank back. Be sure to run the water pipe downward and to let the water
flow out smoothly. Do not kink or bend the pipe.
The permanent drain can be used in conjunction with a water pump (e.g. when draining from a cellar) to lift
the water upwards.
