Using the Dehumidifier
OPERA
TING INSTRUCTIONS
Removing Collected Water (cont)
NOTES:
•
Do not remove the bucket while the dehumidifier is
operating or if it has just stopped operating. This might
cause some water to drip from the drain pan.
•
The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate.
Use a garden hose.
Water can be automatically emptied
into a floor drain by attaching a garden water hose (not
included).
1. Remove the bucket from the front of the unit.
2. Open the drain cover on the side of the unit.
3. Thread a garden hose (not supplied) onto the nozzle and
ensure it is seated securely. Cut to length and lead it to
the floor drain.
4. Replace the bucket in the unit.
NOTE:
The bucket must be in place and securely seated
for the dehumidifier to operate. The garden hose must run
down from the dehumidifier to the floor drain.
Use the internal pump (on some models)
Water can be automatically emptied into a remote location
by attaching the included pump hose.
1. Attach the pump hose to the hose connector by pushing
the tube fitting into the connector until it fits into place
(should not be able to remove the hose when pulled).
2. Position the hose discharge to the desired location.
3. Make sure the pump is activated. To activate the pump,
press and hold the Pump button for 3 seconds. The
Pump indicator light will flash then remain illuminated
once the 3 seconds are complete.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure the condensate hose is properly
connected and is not kinked, bent or cracked as this may
cause water to flow onto the floor. Please ensure the bucket
is empty before putting the unit into pump mode. The bucket
must also be fully seated for the pump to work properly. Do
not operate the machine if the room temperature is 41°F or
below.
NOTE:
Maximum lift height is 16ft.
To Install Pump Hose (on some models):
Push in hose
and gently pull to make sure it is secure. Should not be able
to be removed. You should hear a “click” that lets you know
the hose is inserted correctly.
To Release Pump Hose:
Press the blue button on top of
the connector attached to the dehumidifier and pull the hose
out to remove. Be sure to turn off the pump before removing
the hose.
NOTE:
DO NOT kink or crimp hose, as it can block water
flow.
