Once the water tank is empty, replace and ensure it is securely back inside the dehumidifi er. The appliance 

will resume operating.

Caution

 - The dehumidifi er can be damaged if the water tank is not replaced correctly or if it is 

removed and replaced frequently. Only remove the water tank when full or when the dehumidifi er 

is off .

Using Continuous Drainage

     In situations of extremely high humidity or for convenience, you may fi nd connecting continuous 

     drainage more suitable. To connect continuous drainage, remove the water tank.



Carefully remove the continuous drainage outlet cover from the rear of the dehumidifi er (refer to page 6 

     Fig.4).



Insert a PVC pipe with a Ø14mm ID (fi eld supplied) into the drainage outlet. Ensure a tight fi t so that no 

     water leaks from the dehumidifi er. 



Replace the water tank.



The dehumidifi er can now be operated with continuous drainage.

     NOTE

: Drainage of collected water must comply with local council regulations.



Do not drain water continuously if there is a possibility that temperature around the hose could 

     drop to freezing point. Water inside the hose may freeze and prevent the water in the drainage 

     tank from fl owing out. The water may leak from the unit and damage surrounding objects.
