Draining excess water
Condensed water may accumulate in the unit. If the
internal tank becomes full, the Warning Light will shine
and the unit will not operate until the unit has been
drained.
First, uplug electrical cord from wall outlet. Then, drain
excess water from the tank by placing a pan under the
drain valve, removing the drain plug, and letting the
water drain into the pan.
When the water stops draining out, replace the drain
plug, and remove the pan of water. Operate the air
conditioner in fan mode to dry the interior of the unit.
Always drain the unit before putting it into storage.
