MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING

! WARNING: When performing any maintenance and/or troubleshoot-

ing, make sure that all electrical power is off. This means before service,

unplug the unit from the electrical outlet or if permanently wired, make

sure the circuit breaker is in the off position.

1) Remove any dirt or debris which may collect in the bottom of the

reservoir tank.

2) On a monthly basis, check the condensate drain hose for kinks,

blockage or any other damage that may obstruct condensate pump

from draining properly.

3) Always replace the fan motor cover to keep electrical parts free of

dust, dirt and any other foreign material.

Drain Tank Overflow Switch
This safety feature will stop the compressor operation if the pump

malfunctions. To test the drain tank overflow switch, pinch the drain outlet

hose and pour water into the reservoir inlet drain hole. Continue to fill

the reservoir until the rising water lifts the overflow switch and stops the

operation.
Note: If the Fan Mode Control DIP Switch is set to the “STOP”

position, the entire unit (including fan operation) will turn off.
If the compressor continues to operate when the reservoir is full, check

your installation procedure. After testing is complete, release the drain

outlet hose and the condensate pump will empty the reservoir. Make sure

the 9 in(23cm) section of hose is installed into the inlet drain hole of the

pump reservoir.
