Dehumidifier leaks water from the front or rear instead of into the bucket.

Safety: Unplug the unit and mop up any spilled water.

• Level the unit: Ensure the dehumidifier is on a flat, level surface so water flows correctly into the bucket.
• Check bucket position: Remove and reinstall the bucket, ensuring it is fully seated.
• Clean drain channel: If accessible, use a flexible brush or pipe cleaner to clear the internal drain channel leading to the bucket or hose connection.
• Inspect drain hose: If using continuous drain, ensure the hose slopes downward with no kinks or clogs. Flush it with water.
• Persistent leaks: Inspect for cracks in the internal drain pan; if found, the drain pan assembly may need replacement.
