Emptying The Internal Water Tank - ElectrIQ ECOSILENT8W Manual

EMPTYING THE INTERNAL WATER TANK

NOTE: This model has a self-evaporative function, which reduces the need to empty the water tank in cooling
mode. If the unit is vented correctly most of the water is reused to cool the condenser coils and any excess
is evaporated. Please do not use continuous drainage if you intend to use the self-evaporating facility.
END OF SEASON MAINTENANCE
Remove the rubber stopper from the drainage hole and empty the internal tank. You can also
1.
drain the water by leaning the unit backwards.
Run the unit in fan mode, with a low fan speed, with the rubber stopper still removed, and a
2.
container under the drain port.
Keep the unit in this mode for half day - until the conduit is dried. Doing this helps to keep the
3.
inside of the unit dry and prevents mould from developing.
Turn off the unit and pull out the plug.
4.
Replace the rubber stopper.
5.
Coil the wire and bind it together, then put it into the accessory space.
6.
Separate the vent pipe and store it safely.
7.
Cover the unit and keep it in a dry place.
8.
Take the batteries out of remote control and store or dispose of them safely. Keep all
9.
accessories with the unit ready for next season.
MANUAL DRAINAGE:
When the internal water tank is full the unit will stop working, and the unit will display
E7.
Turn off the unit and unplug. Try not to move the model abruptly as this may cause
the water in the internal tank to spill out.
Place a tray under the lower water plug or place the unit in a drainage area.
Unscrew the drain plug cap and remove the rubber stopper - water will drain from the
internal tank. Put the rubber stopper back and screw the drain plug cap back into place.
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE:
Unscrew the drain plug cap and remove the rubber stopper.
Connect a water pipe to the upper water outlet.
You can plumb this pipe into your current plumbing system, lead it outside and
use gravity fall or use a water pump.
