B. If dehumidification is expected to run for an extended period, the hose can be
connected to a drainpipe or floor drain, avoiding having to check and empty the water
tank regularly.
1. Switch off the appliance, disconnect from the mains socket and remove the
water tank.
2. Remove the plastic plug below the filter with a knife or screwdriver, see fig. 1.
3. Connect a hose with an inner diameter of 12 mm to the hose to the hose
nipple through the opening, and secure with a hose clip, see fig. 2
4. Replace the water tank in the appliance.
C. Arrange the drain hose to ensure that water can flow freely and that the hose is not
trapped, kinked or twisted.
The hose end must never be higher than the hose nipple during use.
D. Check the drain hose regularly to ensure it is not blocked.
E. NOTE! The drain hose can fit tightly to the nipple. Do not twist the drain hose
when disconnecting it. The plastic intermediate connector on the dehumidifier
can break in the process.
Use a screwdriver or similar tool to pry the hose off, or cut it with a knife.
F. Remember that the humidity level in a room can affect wooden furniture or other
woodwork. If the humidity level is too low, cracks can appear in the wood.
