Check The Drain; Removing The Drain Insert; Reinstalling The Drain Insert - Aprilaire E080CS Owner's Manual

CHECK THE DRAIN

The drain should be checked annually to ensure there are no blockages or air lock in the drain system. If the unit is not draining properly, have it
checked by a qualified service professional.
IMPORTANT! The drain insert is a critical feature of the dehumidifier drain management system. This component is required for the
dehumidifier to run properly. If the drain insert is not installed, you will not be able to reinstall the air filter. The air filter is equipped with a
safety mechanism that prevents you from fully inserting the filter without the drain insert installed.
WARNING
Running the dehumidifier without the drain insert can lead to condensate leaks.

REMOVING THE DRAIN INSERT

1. Turn the ON/OFF switch OFF.
2. Remove the filter access door from the drain side of the dehumidifier.
3. Remove the filter from the dehumidifier to access the drain insert.
4. Locate the drain insert which is located over the drain opening.
5. Remove the drain insert by hooking your finger into the finger loop and gently lift the insert up and out of the drain pan.
6. Clean the drain insert with warm water and mild detergent solution.

REINSTALLING THE DRAIN INSERT

1. Reinstall the drain insert by inserting your forefinger into the finger loop and grasping the outer edge of the finger loop with your thumb.
2. Gently insert the drain insert tip into the drain opening and tilting the insert downwards into place.
3. Insure the drain insert is seated properly by checking the top surface of the drain insert is the same surface height as the filter guide channel.
4. Turn the ON/OFF switch ON.
5. At the UI control, select the ON/OFF button and switch to ON mode.
