SET UP & USE
INTERNAL PUMP MODE (CONTINUED)
NOTE: Even once you activate the internal pump, you may not get water running
out of the drain hose right away as there is a small, internal tank which
must fill first. Also, the water will not run out of the drain hose on a
continuous basis unless the dehumidifier has been placed in a very high
humidity area. Otherwise, it will power on and off as needed based on the
home comfort mode set by the user and the ambient humidity level in the
area.
Water can be pumped up to 16' in height from base of. Make sure there are no
kinks or knots in the hose. ONLY use included clear drain hose when utilizing the
internal pump.
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE
Water can be automatically emptied by attaching the black, threaded hose
(included) or a standard garden hose (not included) to the drain port on the
back of the dehumidifier. This will allow the unit to run continuously (depending
on the selected humidity level) without having to empty the unit's water
collection bucket.
To use with black, threaded hose (included)
1. Place dehumidifier on a perfectly level surface.
2. Unscrew and remove drain cap to access the garden hose nozzle threads
(see fig. 6).
3. Insert the included gasket into the front of the included drain adapter
(see fig. 7).
4. Force the included black, threaded hose on to the drain adapter
(see fig. 8).
5. Turn drain adapter clockwise on to the nozzle thread on the back of the unit
(see fig. 8).
6. Once securely installed, lead the drain hose to a nearby drain lower than the
height of the drain plug. (Make sure there are no kinks or knots in the hose)
7. Turn on the unit and select desired relative humidity level.
