Automatic Defrost; Removing Collected Water; Water Level; Bucket Operation - GE ADHL22 Owner's Manual

Using the Dehumidifier

Water Level

The dehumidifier will turn off automatically when the
bucket is full, or when the bucket is removed or not
replaced in the proper position.
The bucket must be replaced in the proper position for
the dehumidifier to work. The empty indiator will blink
and the dehumidifier will not run if the bucket is not in
the proper position.

Bucket Operation

DO NOT remove the foam piece and magnet block in the
bucket assembly.
If removed the Dehumidifier will not work properly.

Automatic Defrost

When frost builds up on the evaporator coils, the
compressor will cycle off and the fan will continue to run
until the frost disappears.
When the coil is defrosted, the compressor or fan will
automatically restart and dehumidifying will resume.

Removing Collected Water

Always make sure the water bucket is locked into
place on the dehumidifier.
There are 3 ways to remove
collected water:
– Use the bucket
– Use a garden hose
– Use the internal pump (on some
models)
Use the bucket. When the bucket is
removed, the unit will shut off. Empty
and replace the bucket.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the hose if using the bucket to
collect water. When the hose is connected, water will flow
through it onto the floor instead of into the bucket.
NOTES:
• Do not remove the bucket while the dehumidifier is
operating or if it has just stopped operating. This might
cause some water to drip from
the drain pan.
• The bucket must be in place
and securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate.
Use a garden hose. Water can be
automatically emptied into a floor
drain by attaching a garden water
hose (not included).
1. Remove the bucket from the front
of the unit.
2. Open the drain cover on the side
of the unit.
3. Thread a garden hose (not
supplied) onto the nozzle and
ensure it is seated securely. Cut
to length and lead it to the floor
drain.
4. Replace the bucket in
the unit.
NOTE: The bucket
must be in place and
securely seated for the
dehumidifier to operate.
The garden hose must
run down from the
dehumidifier to the floor
drain.
