the air filter
The air filter at the bottom 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.
1. Loosen the filter by pulling it out gently.
2. Wash the filter 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
The unit has an electronic defrost
function that will operate exclusively
when the dehumidifier needs
defrosting. The function 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 is drained
from the dehumidifier. This defrosting
system means that the dehumidifier
works at temperatures as low as +5˚C.
the fan
The fan ensures that air flows through
the dehumidifier. Moist air is sucked in
from the rear and goes via the cooling
coils and the vaporizer to come out dry
at the front of the dehumidifier.
important!
Wood's dehumidifiers must be
connected to an earthed power source.
cleaning and maintenance
Wood's dehumidifiers require cleaning
to maintain their high dehumidifying
capacity.
- The front grid can be vacuum-cleaned
or cleaned with a brush.
- The cooling coils are best cleaned with
a rag and warm water.
- The air filter may be washed or
vacuum-cleaned.
- The fan motor is permanently
lubricated and requires no
maintenance.
note: Always disconnect the
cord before cleaning.
hints:
- When the dehumidifier is used in
extremely damp environments or when
the temperature is below +10˚C, the
dehumidifier may stop working. A large
amount of ice builds up on the cooling
coil. Turn off the dehumidifier so that
the ice will melt away.
- Sometimes it may be useful to use a
frost guard or heater fan to make sure
that the temperature does not fall
below +5˚C.
- For maximum dehumidifying power in
a room, it is recommended that the air
supply from outside and from adjoining
rooms is minimized – close doors and
ventilators.
- Put the dehumidifier in the centre of the
room
- Increase temp. for faster
dehumidification ( warm air carries
more water.)
- Use a frost guard if temperature is
below +5°C
- Higher dehumidification in Autumn /
Summer because outside air is warmer
and more humid.
Operating Instructions
When the dehumidifier
requires servicing:
If the dehumidifier requires servicing,
you must first contact the retailer. Proof
of purchase is required for all guarantee
claims.
guarantees
5 years' guarantee against faults in
manufacture applies to the compressor
and 2 years' guarantee against faults
in manufacture applies to the other
