Water Condensation Drainage - Honeywell MN10CED User Manual

WATER CONDENSATION DRAINAGE

When there is excess water condensation inside the unit, the air conditioner stops running and
shows a warning light (the Power Control button flashes with a red light). This warning light indicates
that the water condensation needs to be drained using the following procedures:
Manual Draining in Cooling, Dehumidifying and Heating* Modes
Water may need to be drained in high humidity areas.
1. Unplug the unit from power source.
2. Place a shallow pan under the lower rubber drain plug.
See diagram.
3. Remove the lower rubber drain plug.
4. Water will drain out and collect in the shallow pan.
5. After the water is drained, replace the lower rubber
drain plug firmly.
6. You can now turn on the unit.
If you find that there is a high volume of condensation and a shallow pan is not enough for your use,
you can use a large pan to drain. Follow the below instructions carefully:
1. Find a flat, stable board that is up to 1" thick. The base
could be a wooden board purchased from your local
hardware store, with a minimum base dimension of 20"
(length) x 17" (width) x 1" (thick).
2 . The base should be large and sturdy enough to fit the
portable air conditioner on top. The air conditioner must
be stable and not rock or move when positioned on this
base and not easy to topple over.
3. Drain the water from the lower drain plug as needed,
into a larger pan or through a drain tube. If using a drain
tube, you can purchase vinyl tubing which has an outside
diameter of 5/8" and an inside diameter of ½".
Remember the drain tube must be positioned lower than
the drain plug so the water condensation does not
flow backwards back into the air conditioner.
WARNING: For safety reasons, the Portable Air Conditioner must NOT be positioned on a base that is
higher than 1" from the floor. This is only recommended if you have a stable, flat base to position the
portable air conditioner on safely.
