TCL portable AC displays P1 and stops; water full indicator may be on

Safety first: Turn OFF and unplug the portable AC before draining.

• Step 1 – Drain water: Move the unit to a location where water spillage is acceptable. Remove the drain cap at the bottom rear and allow water to drain into a shallow pan or floor drain.
• Step 2 – Clear blockage: If little water comes out but P1 remains, gently insert a flexible plastic rod into the drain port to clear any blockage.
• Step 3 – Check float switch: Access the internal tank (per user manual) and ensure the float moves freely. Clean any slime or debris.
• Step 4 – Level the unit: Ensure the portable AC is on a level surface so water flows correctly to the tank.

Warning: Do not tip the unit excessively; this can cause water to spill into electrical components.
