WATER DRAINAGE METHODS

WATER DRAINAGE
This air conditioner is equipped with the very latest MIST technology which means
the water tank never fills. This has been verifies by independent testing conducted
both in Australia and overseas under extremely humid conditions. Water drainage
will generally only be required at the end of the season (see End of Season
Operations).
However the mist technology does not operate when the unit is in dehumidifying
(dry mode). Thus, the tank may require emptying on occasions when operating for
long periods in this mode.
As safety measure to positively prevent water spillage, the air conditioner is
equipped with a fail safe device. If the water tank fills the unit will completely
stop including both fan and compressor.
The control panel LED displays "Ft" as mentioned in the Section on
"Self-Diagnosis". The compressor and fan will not restart until the tank has been
drained.
Before draining the water tank (pan) take care not to move the air conditioner as
water may spill onto the floor.
Turn the air conditioner off using the on/off switch on the unit or remote control.
Then drain the water tank by unplugging the drain outlet and allowing the water to
flow onto the drain pan. The drain pan will not hold the full contents of the water
tank. A number of fills of the drain pan are required. It may be easier (after 3 or 4
pans have been drained in order to avoid accidental spillage when shifting the air
conditioner) to wheel the unit outside, remove the drain plug and drain the water
onto the ground.
The water tank is considered sufficiently drained when no more water flows from
the drain outlet.
Restart the air conditioner by pressing the on/off button. Ensure that the unit is in
COOL or DRY mode. The compressor will start approximately 3 minutes after the
