For models without drain connector, just attach the drain hose to the hole. Place the open end of the hose adaptor directly over the drain area in your basement floor.

NOTE

Make sure the hose is secure so there are no leaks. Direct the hose toward the drain, making sure that there are no kinks that will impede water flow. Place the end of the hose into the drain and make sure the end of the hose is directed downward to let the water flow smoothly. (See Figs with ).

Installation not recommended. (See Figs with ). When the continuous drain hose is not used, ensure that the corresponding drain plug and knob are installed firmly to prevent leakage.

WATER DRAINAGE (cont.)

When the water level of the bottom tray reaches a predetermined level, the unit beeps 8 times. The digital display shows “P1.” At this time the air conditioning/dehumidifi cation process will immediately stop. However, the fan motor will continue to operate (this is normal). Carefully move the unit to a drain location, remove the bottom drain plug and let the water drain away. Reinstall the bottom drain plug and restart the machine until the “P1” symbol disappears. If the error repeats, call for service.

NOTE: Be sure to reinstall the bottom drain plug firmly to prevent leakage before using the unit.

1. Press the TIMER ON button. By default, the last time period that you set and an “h” (indicating hours) will appear on the display.

NOTE: This number indicates the amount of time after the current time after which you want the unit to turn on. For example, if you set TIMER ON for 2 hours, “2.0h“ will appear on the screen, and the unit will turn on after 2 hours.

2. Press the TIMER ON button repeatedly to set the time that you want the unit to turn on.

3. Wait 2 seconds, then the TIMER ON function will be activated. The digital display on your remote control will then return to the temperature display.

TIMER OFF function

The TIMER OFF function allows you to set a period of time after which the unit will automatically turn off , such as when you wake up.

1. Press the TIMER OFF button. By default, the last time period that you set and an “h” (indicating hours) will appear on the display.

NOTE: This number indicates the amount of time after the current time after which you want the unit to turn off . For example, if you set TIMER OFF for 2 hours, “2.0h“ will appear on the screen, and the unit will turn off after 2 hours.

2. Press the TIMER OFF button repeatedly to set the time that you want the unit to turn off .

The timer will revert to zero after 24 hours. you can turn either function by setting the timer to "0.0h"

Setting both TIMER ON and TIMER OFF at the same time

Keep in mind that the time periods you set for both functions refer to hours after the current time. For example, say that the current time is 1:00 PM, and you want the unit to turn on automatically at 7:00 PM and want it to operate for 2 hours, then automatically turn off at 9.00 PM. Do the following (side firgure)

Example: Setting the unit to turn on after 6 hours, operate for 2 hours, then turn off (see the figure below)
