Draining The Water - Honeywell DH70PW Owner's Manual

USE & OPERATION (CONTINUED)

DRAINING THE WATER

WARNING: Always drain and discard water collected from dehumidification. The water is not clean and
cannot be used for drinking.
1. Draining water collected in the Water Tank
The condensed water can be collected directly into the water tank. When the water tank is full, the
dehumidifier will automatically shut OFF and
beeping sound.
IMPORTANT: Do not move the dehumidifier when the water tank is full as it will be heavy and can
cause water spillage.
1.1 Locate the water tank at the front of the dehumidifier.
Gently pull the water tank out and place it on the floor.
Two stands located at the bottom of the water tank
will automatically extend to help balance the tank on
the floor.
1.2 Grip the handle inside the water tank and carry the
water tank to a sink to empty.
1.3 Replace the empty water tank back into the front
of the dehumidifier. Please make sure that the tank
is properly positioned.
IMPORTANT: Improper alignment or positioning of the
water tank will cause the unit to pause operation, the
warning light on top of the dehumidifier will illuminate followed by a beeping sound, until the water
tank is fitted properly.
NOTE: There is a Float inside the water tank that senses the water level to automatically stop
dehumidification when the water tank is full. Make sure the float is positioned correctly inside the
water tank by ensuring it lies level with the top edge of the water tank.
2. Continuous Water Drainage
For continuous water drainage, you will need a garden hose* and a suitable water drain (e.g. a sink
or drain hole at floor level) near the dehumidifier.
2.1 Locate the drain outlet on the back of the unit.
2.2 Unscrew and remove both drain cap and rubber
stopper.
2.3 Locate the female connector at one end of the
garden hose. Insert the garden hose onto the drain
outlet of the dehumidifier. Screw and tighten the
garden hose connector onto the threaded part of
the drain outlet, making sure the hose connector is
secured to ensure there will be no leaks. If there
are leaks, the hose and the drain outlet may not be
connected properly. Disconnect, replace and
tighten the garden hose connector again.
2.4 Position the other end of the garden hose in the sink
or drain. Make sure the hose is not bent or kinked which might stop the water flow. Make sure
the hose is secured over the drain and will not fall out of place causing unwanted water
spillage.
IMPORTANT: Make sure water can flow down the garden hose by keeping the hose angled down and
free of bends or kinks.
IMPORTANT: If you stop using the continuous drain function, the drain cap and rubber stopper must be
replaced before use to prevent leakage.
*The garden hose is NOT supplied.
