Soleus Air CFM-65 Dehumidifier User Manual


 
DRAINING THE COLLECTED WATER
When the drainage tank is full, “ ” in the LED display will turn on and the unit beeps to alert the user
and operation will stop automatically. The water then needs to be emptied from the drainage tank.
Emptying the Drainage Tank
1. Lightly press on the sides of
the tank with both hands and
pull out gently.
2. Carefully discard the
collected water.
NOTE:
1. Do not remove the styrofoam packing from the float on the unit. The float on the unit will no longer be
able to detect the water level correctly without the styrofoam packing, and water may leak from the
water tank. This can cause electrical shock and/or short circuits.
2. If the drainage tank is dirty, wash it with cold or lukewarm water. Do not use detergent, scouring
pads, chemically treated dust cloths, gasoline, benzene, thinner, or other solvents, as these can
scratch and damage the tank and cause water leakage.
3. When replacing the drainage tank, press the tank firmly into place with both hands. If the tank is not
positioned properly, the WATER FULL sensor will be activated, and the dehumidifier will not operate.
4. If the drainage tank is removed while the unit is in operation, or immediately after operation has
stopped, water that is still in the cooling unit may drip out onto the base plate. Always wait at least 30
minutes before removing the drainage tank to avoid drips. (If water has dripped, wipe it up.)
5. Do not drink the water collected in the drainage tank.
Continuous Water Drainage
The unit features a continuous drainage port. By attaching the included 12-inch hose, the water in the
drainage tank can be continuously drained out of the port on the unit. NOTE: When setting up the
equipment for continuous drainage, always stop operation first and unplug the power supply plug.
1. Remove the plug from the drainage port on the back of the unit. Attach the included hose and run to a
gravity drain. You may need additional hose to run the water to a gravity drain. Check the hose
periodically to make sure it is still connected and has not been obstructed.
2. The drain hose must always lie flat and maintain a downhill grade to make sure that collected water
can be drained out with the force of gravity.
