    ASSEMBLY REQUIREMENTS EXHAUST DUCT When you use the unit as an air conditioner, the hot exhaust air and evaporated condensate water must be vented out of the room. The exhaust duct and venting kit serves this purpose. NOTE: The exhaust duct and venting kit should not be used while the unit is operated in dehumidification, or fan mode.

    NOTE: In order to achieve maximum room cooling efficiency, the exhaust duct should remain as short and straight as possible. To further shorten the exhaust hose, first unthread either exhaust duct adapter clockwise to remove it. Then cut the hose to desired length. It is not recommended to increase the manufacturer’s length of the exhaust hose.

  • Page 14: Optional Water Drainage

    OPTIONAL WATER DRAINAGE When operating the air conditioner in cooling or dehumidifying mode under normal conditions, the condensation water is automatically evaporated from an internal drip pan out through the exhaust duct. Under extremely high humidity conditions, the water in the drip pan may reach a level that triggers a shut-off mechanism. The compressor and fan will turn off and the water must be drained via one of the following two methods.
  • Page 15: Manual Drainage

    When the unit is operating in manual drainage mode, excess condensation in the drip pan will rise until it reaches a predetermined level, at which time the air conditioner will signal a warning (E4 on LCD) and shut off. To drain the excess condensation, turn off the air conditioner, remove the drain plug and allow water to drip into an external pan or drainage tubing.
