To remove collected water
Your dehumidifier has a plastic
bucket that catches the water that is
removed from the air, an automatic
water overflow control, and a
signal light that glows when the
bucket is full.
On some models, weight of water
in the bucket triggers a switch at the
bottom rear of the dehumidifier
that stops the unit and turns the
FULL light on when the bucket
is nearly full.
Before removing the bucket to
empty it, turn tie Humidity Control
knob to "1 ~' This will prevent the
dehumidifier from operating when
the bucket is not in place.
on the bucket supports on each side
and push it all the way in.
After replacing the bucket, be
sure to turn the Humidity Control
knob back to the desired setting.
On other models, a float rises and
activates the water overflow control
that turns the FULL light on and
stops dehumidification before the
bucket overflows.
Before removing the bucket, move
the control cord attached to the float
to the OFF (up) position. This will
keep the float up and prevent the
dehumidifier from operating when
the bucket is not in place.
