Disposing of collected water
ikWARNING
Personal Injury Hazard
Do not use the water that collects in
the water pan for drinking purposes. It
is not sanitary.
Failure to follow the above precaution
could result in personal injury or
illness.
There are three methods of disposing of
water.
1. Empty the pan manually.
When the pan is full, remove it, empty it
into a large sink or tub, and replace it
properly.
NOTE: The water pan must be posi­
tioned properly for the Water Level
Control Switch to operate properly and
turn the dehumidifier off when the pan is
full. See page 6.
2. Place the dehumidifler directly over
drain.
The pan has a threaded hose connection
which can be left open. Cut out opening
with a knife or
Vt, inch (19 mm) wood drill.
Once opened, the hose connection will
continually drain water from the pan. Be
sure to keep the dehumidifier directly over
a drain.
3. Attach a garden hose to the threaded
hose connection to carry water to the
drain.
• The pan has a threaded hose connec­
tion which can be left open. Cut out an
opening with a knife or inch (19 mm)
wood drill.
• Attach a garden hose. Be sure the hose
does not kink or bend. It should lie flat
from the dehumidifier to drain.
• Once the hose connection is opened,
the pan will continually drain through the
hose. Be sure to keep the hose flat and
in the drain.
