storage area. Insert the hose until it stops

and tug gently to make sure it is secure.

Reinstall the water bucket, sliding the end

of the short pump hose through the square

opening in the cover.

To activate the pump, press the Pump

button for 3 seconds. Confirm that the

Pump Standby light is on. The pump will

start automatically once the water bucket is

full. The pump will continue to operate if

the water bucket is removed.

To remove either the short or long pump

hose, use your index finger and thumb to

push the inner white ring in at the base of

the hose connector while sliding the hose

out. If you're pressing the correct ring, you

should feel some give in the hose.

• Do not install the end of the pump hose

higher than 16 1/4 ft. (5 m). Doing so

could result in leaks or product damage.

•

 The dehumidifier will go into standby

mode after about 3 minutes if the water

bucket is removed but the pump will

continue to function. To avoid damaging

the pump, turn off the appliance before

removing the water bucket.

• Do not operate the pump without the

pump hoses and water bucket in place.

• Do 

not operate with the filter disconnected 

from the short pump hose.

purchased online at www.lg.com or

adapter when the pump hose is inserted.

 The pump will not drain the water bucket

completely dry. To avoid odor, clean the

water bucket at least once a week.

the bucket for cleaning.
