Setup

1. Unpacking and Placement

2. Power Connection

Plug the dehumidifier into a standard 115V electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is properly grounded and can support the unit's wattage (515 watts).

3. Water Drainage Options

The unit offers two primary methods for water removal:

• Water Bucket (Manual Emptying): The dehumidifier comes with a 1.8-gallon (14.4 pints) water tank. When the tank is full, the unit will alert you and automatically shut off to prevent overflow. Simply remove the bucket, empty the water, and reinsert it to resume operation.
• Continuous Drain (Hose Connection): For continuous, hands-off operation, you can connect a standard garden hose (not included) to the continuous drain port on the back of the unit. Ensure the hose leads to a low-level drain, such as a floor drain or sump pump, allowing gravity to remove the collected water. The unit includes a threaded adaptor with a small internal drain hose for this purpose.
