Installing the Optional Drain Hose

Normally, condensed water is pumped up to the water container where water is collected until manually emptied. Water can also be drained out directly to a mains drain, especially when the appliance is stacked on top of a washing machine. With the connecting elbow or T piece of the mains drain hose, simply change the water path and re-route to the drainage facility as below:

  • Separate the anti-backflow lid a and the water container hose b from the connecting elbow or T piece.

  • Attach the anti-backflow lid a to the head of the connecting elbow or T piece and then connect the optional drain hose c to the opposite side of the connecting elbow or T piece.

  • The drain hose should not be placed higher than 150 cm above the floor. Water in the appliance may not drain or may drain slowly.

    • Securing the drain hose correctly will protect the floor from damage due to water leakage.

    • If the drain hose is too long, do not force it back into the appliance. This will cause abnormal noise.

    • When installing the drain hose to a sink, secure it tightly with string.

Caution
  • If the optional drain hose is installed in a way that leaves it bent or pinched, drainage may not function properly.
