DRAINAGE INSTRUCTION
9
This portable air conditioner has two drain ports
-
an
upper
drain port and
a
lower
drain port. It also has
two
drainage methods
that
can be used
: manual drainage and
continuous drainage
.
MANUAL
DRAIN
IN COOLING MODE
This unit is designed with
a
high
ly
efficient self-
evaporative system and
i
t is suggested to use manual
drainage in cooling mode
.
C
ondensate will recycle in the
unit to cool
the
condenser and enhance cooling
performance
. H
owever in extreme humidity,
the
water
tank
in the
chassis will
fill up and
“FL” will show on
the
LED
display
. When this happens
t
he water tank
need
s
to
be
drained manually from lower drain port.
1.
Put
a shallow
tray below the
lower drain port
at the back
of the
unit.
2.
Screw off the drain
port
cover
and then remove
the
water stopper to allow water flow into the tray.
3. After water has stopped flowing, plug in the water
stopper back in and screw the drain port cover back onto
the drain port tightly.
NOTE:
•
To avoid leaks, if it is necessary to move the unit always
turn off the unit and make sure it is drained properly
before moving.
•
If the drain port cover or water stopper are damaged
during use, they should be replaced with new ones.
•
Tilt the unit slightly backwards when draining.
•
If the shallow tray has insufficient capacity to hold all
the water that is draining, block the drain port with the
water stopper before the tray is full, empty the tray,
and then restart the draining process.
•
The water stopper and drain port cover must be fitted
properly to avoid leakages.
CONTIOUOUS DRAIN
IN HEATING MODE
We s
trongly recommend to use this method
,
and drain from
the
lower drain port
if the unit is being used in heating mode,
because self-evaporative cooling system does
not
work
in
heating mode
.
1.
Screw off the
drain port cover and remove the water
stopper.
2.
Connect drain-hole with
13mm
external diameter
PVC
drain hose,
inserted
as deep as possible to avoid leakage
s
.
3.
Pull the
end of the
drain hose
to
a drain outlet within the
home, or to the outside of the home.
NOTE:
•
The d
rain hose must be installed before unit starts
working.
•
The drain hose should be routed so that it cannot be
accidentally accessed during normal use. It should also
be laid as straight as possible, with no sharp bends that
would restrict water flow. The entire drain hose should
also be kept at a level below that of the drain port.
ENGLISH
Choke Hazard
Keep the drain cover and the water stopper stored
safely, out of the sight and reach of infants and children,
when continuous drainage has been adopted.
