the condenser.

because its uneven bottom may cause it to spill.

3. Empty the tank and carefully replace it in the unit.

drainage outlet on the back of the unit.

Auto-Shutoff

The unit will turn off 30 seconds after the water tank reaches capacity. The unit will also turn off

When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the compressor will turn off and the fan will

continue to run until the evaporator coils have defrosted.

The Auto Restart feature allows the unit to restart after a power interruption using the previously

programmed settings. To protect the unit, the compressor will not restart for 3 minutes

after stopping.
