Dehumidifier displays P1 and stops running; bucket may be empty or partially full.

Safety first: Unplug the unit before removing the water bucket to avoid spills near live electrical parts.

• Empty and reseat bucket: Remove the water bucket, empty it completely, and reinstall it firmly so it sits flush with the cabinet.
• Check float mechanism: Inspect the float inside the bucket. Make sure it moves freely up and down and is not stuck by mineral deposits or debris. Clean with warm soapy water.
• Inspect bucket switch: Locate the bucket full switch in the cabinet. Press the lever to see if P1 clears.
• Adjust bucket alignment: Ensure the bucket guides properly into the switch actuator.
• Replace switch: If the switch does not change state when actuated, replace the bucket full switch assembly.
