DRAINAGE OF WATER
The dehumidifier is fitted with a hose
connection. By attaching a hose to the
dehumidifier the dehumidified water can
be drained directly away.
Using the hose:
1. Disconnect the dehumidifier from the
power source and remove the water
reservoir to give access to the drip tray.
2. Attach the hose coupling to the thread on
the dehumidifier and lead the hose to a
drainage outlet. Check that the hose is not
above the level of the drip tray.
3. Connect the dehumidifier to the power
source.
Without hose, direct to a drain outlet:
1. Disconnect the dehumidifier from the
power source and remove the water
reservoir.
2. Place the dehumidifier directly over the
drain so that the dehumidified water can
drip through the hole at the base of the
dehumidifier and into the drain.
3. Connect the dehumidifier to the power
source.
THE HYGROSTAT
Wood's dehumidifier is fitted with a
built in hygrostat, or humidity controller,
which is set to the desired level of
humidity. The hygrostat registers the
current level of humidity and ensures
that the dehumidifier is turned on and
off automatically.
How to set the hygrostat:
1. Set the hygrostat knob to the Maximum
position.
2. Set the fan to position II (does not apply to
DS12).
3. When the desired level of humidity is
reached, the hygrostat knob is turned
counterclockwise until the dehumidifier is
turned off.

NOTE: The ambient relative
humidity is most simply measured
with a wood's hygrometer, and the most
suitable range is between 50% and 60%.
SHUTTING OFF AUTOMATICALLY
When the water reservoir is full, the
dehumidifier is shut off automatically.
The warning light at the front of the
dehumidifier comes on to show that the
water reservoir should be emptied.
1. Disconnect the dehumidifier from the
power source.
2. Empty the water reservoir.
3. Put the empty water reservoir back and
check that the float moves freely. See the
section on the Float.
4. Connect the dehumidifier to the power
source..
THE AIR FILTER
The air filter at the rear of the
dehumidifier ensures that the cooling
coils are kept free of dust. It is important
that the filter is kept clean so that air can
flow freely through the dehumidifier.
The filter should thus be cleaned when
required.
Your dehumidifier can be equipped with
a SMF-filter that enhances the capacity
of the dehumidifier and cleanses the air
further. Please refer to the separate filter
leaflet for installation and maintenance
instructions.
1. Loosen the filter by squeezing it lightly in
the middle. This releases the fixings on the
sides of the filter.
2. Lift the filter out and wash it with warm
water and a mild cleansing agent.
Alternatively the filter may be vacuum-
cleaned.
3. Let the filter dry and put it back.
AUTOMATIC DEFROSTING
Wood's dehumidifiers are fitted with a
timer which ensures that the cooling
coils are defrosted once an hour. The
timer shuts down the compressor,
which causes the cooling of the coils
to stop. The fan continues to draw the
air at room temperature through the
dehumidifier and thus melts the ice, and
the water runs down into the reservoir.
This defrosting system means that the
dehumidifier works at temperatures as
low as +5˚C.
FAN
The fan ensures that air flows through
the dehumidifier. Moist air is sucked in
from the rear and goes via the cooling
coil and the vaporizer to come out dry
at the front of the dehumidifier. Wood's
dehumidifiers are fitted with two fan
speeds, except model DS12, which has
only one.
• Position II – gives a high air flow with
maximum dehumidifying of air.
• Position I – gives a lower air flow
which causes quieter operation and
somewhat lower dehumidifying
capacity.
