Water Drainage
WATER DRAINAGE METHOD
This air conditioner is equipped with the very latest MIST technology which means that the water tank
generally never needs emptying even in high humidity areas. Water drainage will generally only be
required at the end of the season (see End of Season Operations - page 27)
NOTE
As a safety measure, to positively prevent water spillage, the air conditioner is equipped with a fail safe
device, if, the water tank fills. The unit will completely stop, the control panel displays "
TANK) as mentioned in SELF-DIAGNOSIS in page 25, the compressor and fan will not restart until
tank has been drained.
Before draining the water tank (tray) take care not to move the air conditioner as water may spill onto the floor.
Turn the air conditioner off using the on/off switch on the unit or remote control. Then drain the water tank by
unplugging the drain outlet and allowing the water to flow onto the drain pan. The drain pan will not hold the
full contents of the water tank. A number of fills of the drain pan are required. It may be easier (after 3 or 4
pans have been drained in order to avoid accidental spillage when shifting the air conditioner) to wheel the
unit outside, remove the drain plug and drain the water onto the ground.
The water tank is considered sufficiently drained when no more water flows from the drain outlet.
Restart the air conditioner by pressing the on/off button. Ensure that the unit is in COOL or DRY mode. The
compressor will start approximately 3 minutes after the unit is switched on.
NOTE
To completely drain all water from the water tank, tilt the unit by lifting it slightly upwards from
the front until no more water drains from the outlet.
Continuous Drainage
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE
When operating in dry (dehumidifying) mode continuous drainage can be used to avoid the trouble of manual
drainage, if required.
This appliance is equipped with a second drain outlet half way up the back of the unit for this purpose.
To operate the continuous drain method:
(1) Empty the water tank completely
(2) Connect one end of the drain hose on the middle drain outlet (pick the
hose end that has a tight fit on this outlet) and lead the other end to
outdoor or other place where it can drain freely. The bottom drain outlet
can also be used but is not as effective as the middle drain outlet as
this outlet puts a greater slope on the drain pipe which drains the water
more quickly and makes the dry mode work more effectively
(3) Turn on the appliance and select dry mode
When this continuous drainage method is adopted in dry mode, water
removed from the air flows out through the drain hose continuously.
