4.3.1 Manual Drainage (Water Tank)

The dehumidifier will collect moisture in its internal water tank. When the tank is full, the unit will automatically stop operating, and an indicator light will illuminate to remind you to empty it.

1. Gently pull out the water tank from the front of the unit.
2. Carefully carry the tank to a sink or drain.
3. Empty the collected water.
4. Slide the empty water tank back into the dehumidifier until it clicks into place. The unit will resume operation.

4.3.2 Continuous Drainage (Drain Hose)

For continuous operation without needing to empty the water tank, you can use the included drain hose.

1. Locate the continuous drain outlet on the back of the dehumidifier.
2. Remove the rubber stopper from the drain outlet.
3. Connect the provided drain hose to the outlet, ensuring a secure fit.
4. Route the other end of the hose to a suitable drain (e.g., floor drain, large bucket, or sink). Ensure the hose is sloped downwards to allow gravity to drain the water. Do not allow the hose to be kinked or elevated above the drain outlet.
