Gravity Draining
If you plan to run your dehumidifier continuously, you can choose
direct draining by attaching a garden hose to the unit.
□
Turn off the dehumidifier and unplug the power supply
cord.
□
Uncover the connector cover on the side of the unit.
□
Remove bucket.
□
Attach a garden hose to the drain hose connector on the
inside of the dehumidifier. Securely attach the hose to be
sure there is no water leak.
NOTE:
□
Garden hose sold separately.
□
The drain hose inner diameter should greater than 1/2 in.
□
The connector is designed for North American garden
hoses only.
IMPORTANT:
In North America the garden hose connectors
are 3/4 in. diameter straight (non-tapered) thread with a pitch
of 11.5 threads per inch (male part has an outer diameter of
1-1/16 in. (26.99 mm).
WARNING:
Do not injure hands while connecting the hose.
□
Place the other end of garden hose into a floor drain. Check
to see that the hose lies flat and is in the drain. Make sure
all the parts of the hose is on a lower level than the hose
connector on the dehumidifier. Also, the outlet of the hose
should be at least 5.5 in. lower than the hose connector.
The hose should not be kinked or pinched.
□
Reinstall bucket.
NOTE:
□
To use the bucket without the garden hose, simply
remove the garden hose, then reinstall bucket.

The bucket must be installed and properly aligned for the
dehumidifier to operate with or without a garden hose
connected.
