Devola dehumidifier displays P2 and stops; tank appears empty.

Safety: Unplug the unit before internal inspection.

P2 indicates the control believes the tank is full or missing.

• Reseat the tank: Remove the tank and reinstall it carefully, ensuring it slides fully into place. Some Devola tanks must be pushed until a click is felt.
• Inspect tank components: Check for a small float or magnet inside the tank that interacts with a reed switch or sensor in the cabinet. Ensure it moves freely and is not stuck with scale or dirt.
• Check the tank switch: With the tank removed, locate the tank full switch or sensor in the cavity. Press it gently; it should move and click. If it is jammed or broken, it must be replaced.
• Clean contact areas: Wipe any moisture or dirt from the tank seating surfaces that might prevent proper engagement of the switch.
• Replace faulty switch: If P2 persists and the switch does not change state when pressed (tested with a multimeter), replace the Devola tank full microswitch or reed sensor.
