The dehumidifier runs but no water is in the bucket

All the controls seem to be working and the motor runs but no water is in the bucket. Last year I was emptying the bucket every day or two. I'm afraid the motor will burn out so I have turned it off until i hear from you. Thank you.

Runs - but no water in bucket

Hello. If your dehumidifier doesn't seem to run often but the humidity in the room is high, try adjusting the humidistat control on the dehumidifier to a dryer setting. If the dehumidifier seems to run constantly, but there's little or no water in the container, there may be a problem in the refrigeration system. Try cleaning the unit. If that doesn't work, you can't repair the refrigeration system yourself, you need a qualified appliance repair technician to do that.
