WATER DRAINAGE
The dehumidifying capacity of this unit is 71 pints per day. The patented
self-evaporating function of the ARC-148MS unit fully exhausts all
condensation automatically in most en-vironments when humidity is
less than 70%. Areas with more than 70% humidity, the self-
evaporating function can still ex-haust about 98% of the moisture and
the remaining 2% of moisture will be collected in the water tank of the
air condi-tioner.
When the water reservoir reaches its maximum level, the unit will beep
8 times and the digital display will show P1. When the unit displays P1,
all operation modes will be disabled temporarily, while the fan
continuously running. The P1 code will disappear when the water is
completely drained.
