removed from the air may cause some water to collect. To remove this excess water you can install the drain
pan as detailed below.
1. Take the drain pan which is located in the air discharge.
2. Remove the hole rubber from the base-pan (for some models).
3. Install the drain pan to the right corner of the cabinet with 4 (or 2)
screws.
4. Connect the drain hose of 3/5" inside diameter to the outlet located
at the bottom of the drain pan.You can purchase the drain hose or
tubing locally to satisfy your particular needs. (Drain hose is not
supplied).
