I had similar problem .... on very humid days unit leaks ..... temp solution for me was to drain the unit .... inserted wire coat hanger into tube .... lots of watery gook came out.. - even tilted/tipped the unit inorder to get as much water out of it.......afterwards unit worked fine.
We are VERY SASTIFIED with the Delonghi Pinguino - bought it years ago when it first came out and it has provided years of troublefree service .... the water build up / leaking was only recently - in fact we never drained the thing until this year.

This is completely normal. You should connect a tube either via hose connection if it's set up that way, or by a brass insert you can pick up at any home depot-like store. Most of the time it's a 1/4" or 3/4" hose, try to find an insert that might fit, and also pick up a length of tubing to run it outside. If, however, the tube looks like it's hard plastic (typically that matches the case), and has little rings around it, all you need to do is pick up some condensate line tubing from any hardware store and slide it over the tube. Just be sure not to run the end of the tubing above the line of the tube in your AC unit, or else it will not drain water and could cause some problems.
Air conditioners work by a similar process as an ice cold can of soda, or a glass of water (or a beer if you're so inclined). When you put a cold can of beer outside, it gets wet from condensation. This is because the coldness of the can makes the water molecules floating around in the air cool off and turn to liquid (because gas turns to liquid just like liquid turns to solid [water to ice]). Inside your air conditioner, there is a coil that gets very cold. The air that blows across this cold coil is the cold air that you feel blowing out of the unit.
Because the unit condenses a lot of water, it needs to get rid of it somehow. The hose you mentioned is called a condensate line. This line is there for exactly that reason, to dispose of the condensed water (called condensate).
If the unit did not dispose of this water as it dripped off, primarily it would fill up and start leaking into your house. Another potential side effect is that the coil is very cold (often below 15 degrees Fahrenheit). The water drips off very quickly most of the time, but occasionally the water will not disperse fast enough, so it will end up freezing and icing over your coil. This is usually taken care of by the unit (it will go into a defrost cycle much like a refrigerator to get rid of the ice), but in rare cases it can cause the coil to completely ice over and can cause serious damage.
Bottom line, it's nothing to worry about. As long as it keeps coming out of the tube in the back and not from anywhere else, it's not a problem. Just be sure to run that tube either to a drain or outside. Best of luck!
