Water Drainage

•
This product has a self-evaporative system. The condensing water will be recycled to cool the
condenser. This will improve the units cooling efficiency and save on energy consumption.
•
When the unit is in cool or fan modes there is usually no need to drain any water from the unit.
•
During dry (dehumidifying) mode, remove the drain plug from the back of the unit (Fig. 7) and
install a drain hose (Fig. 8) of 10mm inner diameter and place the open end of the hose into a
vessel such as a bucket.
•
If the internal water container becomes full, the LCD display will flash "P2" and the unit will stop
automatically.
•
Before you empty the unit you will need to turn the unit off and pull the plug out of the power
supply.
Important!
It is recommended that you do not move the unit around without firstly draining the internal tank. If
water is left in the unit then it may spill out onto the floor or carpet.
