USING THE DEHUMIDIFIER
Always make sure the water bucket is locked into place on the dehumidifier.
Removing Collected Water
There are 3 ways to remove collected water:
Use the bucket. When the bucket is removed, the unit will shut
off. Empty and replace the bucket.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the hose if using the bucket to collect
water. When the hose is connected, water will flow through it
onto the floor instead of into the bucket.
NOTES:
•
Do not remove the bucket while the dehumidifier is operating
or if it has just stopped operating. This might cause some
water to drip from the drain pan.
•
The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate.
Use a hose. Water can be automatically emptied into a floor
drain by attaching a garden water hose (not included).
1. Remove the bucket from the front of the unit.
2. Open the drain cover on the side of the unit.

3. Thread a garden hose (not supplied) onto the nozzle and
ensure it is seated securely. Cut to length and lead it to the
floor drain.
4. Replace the bucket in the unit.
NOTE: The bucket must be in place and securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate. The drain hose must run down from the
dehumidifier to the floor drain.
Use the internal pump. Water can be automatically emptied into
a remote location by attaching the included pump hose.
1. Attach the pump hose to the hose connector by pushing the
tube fitting into the connector until it fits into place (should not
be able to remove the hose when pulled).
2. Position the hose discharge to the desired location.
3. Make sure the pump is activated. To activate the pump, press
and hold the Pump button for 3 seconds. The Pump indicator
light will flash then remain illuminated once the 3 seconds are
complete.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the condensate hose is properly
connected and is not kinked, bent or cracked as this may cause
water to flow onto the floor. Please ensure the bucket is empty
before putting the unit into pump mode. The bucket must also
be fully seated for the pump to work properly. Do not operate
the machine if the room temperature is 41°F or below.
NOTE: Maximum lift height is 16ft.
