WATER DRAINAGE

During the process of cooling, some water will be extracted from the air into the unit. Most of this
water is used to cool and exhausted to the outside. If the unit is operated in high humidity or low
temperature environment, water will collect in the reservoir inside the unit. If the reservoir is full, the
compressor will stop. To continue the cooling function, please drain the water.
1. Turn off the unit.
2. Position a flat container or dish under the drain plug.
3. Remove the drain plug and the condensed water will drain out automatically.
4. Once all the condensed water is drained, replace the drain plug into the drain firmly.
CONTINUOUS DRAIN
For continuous drainage, install standard water hose to the upper drain port and place the open
end of the hose to a drain area. The outer diameter of water hose adaptor that will fit the upper
drain is 1 inch.
