5. Setup

5.1. Unpacking and Placement

• Remove all packaging materials, including any tape securing parts of the unit.
• Place the dehumidifier on a flat, stable surface. Ensure there is at least 8 inches of space around the unit for proper airflow.
• The unit features 360° swivel wheels for easy movement.

5.3. Drainage Options

Your dehumidifier offers two drainage methods:

1. Manual Drainage (Water Tank):

   The unit collects water in its 5.5L (1.25-gallon) internal water tank. When the tank is full, the dehumidifier will automatically shut off and an indicator light will illuminate. Empty the tank by pulling it out, lifting the handle, and pouring the water into a sink or drain. Reinsert the tank firmly until it clicks into place.

   

   Figure 5: Illustration of manual and continuous drainage methods.

2. Continuous Drainage (Drain Hose):

   For continuous operation without needing to empty the water tank, attach the included drain hose. Locate the drain port on the side of the unit. Remove the rubber plug, connect the drain hose, and ensure it leads to a suitable drain (e.g., floor drain, sink) with a downward slope for gravity drainage. This method is ideal for basements or areas with high humidity.
