FULL Indicator
When the water tank is full, the water full indicator lights up and the dehumidifier will buzz 15 times and then stop dehumidifying. Empty the water tank and re-install the water bucket in the dehumidifier to resume the operation.
WATER DRAINAGE
Emptying the Water Bucket
When the water bucket is full, the dehumidifier will automatically stop
working and make a beep sound. Meanwhile, the water full indicator will light
up in green. Do not move the dehumidifier at this time in case the water
spills on the floor.
*Gently remove the water bucket on the back of the dehumidifier (FIG 1);
@Empty the water bucket;
Replace the water bucket in the dehumidifier. The dehumidifier will auto-start
once the bucket has been seated properly.
NOTE: Do not remove the float (FIG 4) from the water tank; otherwise, the dehumidifier will not stop working when the water tank is full. Then the water will be overflow that may damage your floor.
Continuously Drain by Gravity
- Take out the water bucket (FIG 1);
- Attach one end of the hose to to drain outlet (FIG 2);
- Replace the water bucket in the dehumidifier, mind routing the hose out from the cutting on the bucket, and direct the other end of the drain hose down to a suitable drainage facility, like a floor drain (FIG 3).
Note :
- The drainage facility should be lower than the drain outlet of the dehumidifier.
- Make sure the connection is tight and there is no leaking.
- Be sure to run the water hose sloping downward to let the water flow out smoothly. No kinks or bent.
- To improve gravity draining, you can raise the dehumidifier onto another higher and flat surface, like a table.
- If the condensation water would be drained out to an external container via the hose, be sure NOT to submerge the other end of the hose into the drained out water.
- It is not recommended to use a long hose. If the drain hose is too long, water may not drain completely, which can lead to stagnant water and mildew build up inside the hose.
- When the continuous drain feature is not being used, remove the drain hose from the outlet.

Clean the Air filter
The air filter is located behind the rear intake grill to prevents dust coming
