Water Drainage - Danby DPA053B4WDB-RF Owner's Manual

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WATER DRAINAGE

Ensure the air conditioner is turned off and
unplugged and that it is close to a fl oor drain before
setting up any drain option.
1. Drain Plug
When the internal drain pan becomes full the
1
appliance will beep 8 times and the digital display
will show error code P1. The air conditioning or
dehumidifying action will stop but the fan may
continue to operate.
Remove the drain plug and allow the water to
completely drain. Replace the bottom drain plug,
pressing fi rmly to ensure a tight fi t and no leaks.
2. Continuous Drain
2
During dry mode, you may wish to install a
continuous drain option so that the air conditioner
will automatically drain collected water.
Remove the upper drain plug and attach the drain
hose that was provided with the air conditioner.
Place the open end of the drain hose over the
receptacle that it will drain into; this could be a
basement fl oor drain, a sink or similar.
Ensure that there are no kinks or bends in the drain
hose and that it goes straight down toward the fl oor.
The continuous drain is activated by gravity only.
If the hose is not positioned directly downwards,
water will not drain correctly.
