Thank you
Thank you for choosing a Wood’s de-
humidier. You are one of more than
300.000 people who have choosen
a Wood’s dehumidier to prevent
damages from excessive moisture
and mould. Originating in Canada
in 1950, Wood’s has more than 60
years experience of developing and
manufacturing dehumidiers. When
chosing a Wood’s dehumidier
you’ll get a unit with great quality,
high capacity and that will extract

Wood’s DSC-70ES
The Wood’s DSC-70ES is a very
powerful and sturdy dehumidier,
suitable for crawl spaces, base-
ments, laundry rooms and other
large areas.
Features:
• Hot gas defrost for use in lower
temperatures, down to 0°C.
• Automatic pump for water
drainage.
• Duct connection for better
distribution of the dried air.
• Automatic restart with memory
function after power cut.
• Easy to use controls.
• Efcient air lter.
Workings of your
dehumidier
The Wood’s DSC-70ES is a com-
pressor dehumidier. As the air is
circulated through the room and
drawn through the dehumidier
by the fan, the air passes over the
compressor cooled copper coils. The
coils cool down the water vapour,
separating the water from the air.
The water drips down from the coils
and is drained away with the water
hose. Left is the dry air that is exhau-
sted in the room. As the dehumidier
condensates the water vapour, heat
energy is released. That is why a
compressor dehumidier will exhaust
warm, dry air which is extra benecial
for drying clothes, laundry, wood etc.
A compressor dehumidier is the
most energy efcient way to remo-
ve excess moist and bad odour. To
achieve a safe and reliable protection
against mould and moisture dama-
ge, it is recommended to keep the
relative humidity level between 50%
and 60%.
1. Security warnings

Memory function and automatic
restart after power failure
In the event of a power failure, the
DSC-70ES will automatically restart
when the power returns and conti-
nues to operate according to your
latest settings. Please note that the
DSC-70ES has a built in compressor
protection that causes it to pause for
3 minutes before restarting when the
power returns.
Automatic defrost
The DSC-70ES has a hot gas defrost
system. This means that it can be
used in colder areas, without the risk
of ice forming on the cooling coils.
The unit will defrost automatically
when needed. When the DSC-70ES
is in defrost mode, the compressor
and fan shuts off and a light illumi-
nates on the control panel. The unit
will continue its operations once the
defrost is completed.
Automatic water pump
The DSC-70ES is equipped with a
water pump, it will automatically drain
the water when needed.
A. Operating instructions
1.Power Key
Press the ON/OFF button to start the
machine. The units default humidity
level is 50%, The power indicator
light illuminates when the unit is
switched on. Press the ON/OFF key
again to stop the machine. When
powered off, the fan continues to run
for 60 seconds before stopping.
2. Set humidity
Press the up and down arrows to
increase or decrease the desired
humidity level. The humidity is set in
1% intervals between 35% and 95%.
When the indoor humidity is lower
than the set humidity, the unit will
automatically stop. When the indoor
humidity is higher than set humidity
the unit will automatically restart.
When you set the humidity level,
the selected value is shown in the
display for a few seconds. After, the
display returns to show the current
indoor humidity level.
Recommended humidity level:
50-60% RH (relative humidity)
3. Continuous dehumidication
Press the up and down arrows at
the same time to activate continuous
dehumidication (the indication light
illuminates in green). The dehumidi-
er will now run continuously, despite
indoor humidity, until it is shut off. In
continuous mode the unit will defrost
automatically and no values can be
set manually. Press the up and down
arrows at the same time again to
deactivate the continuous mode.
4.Manual water drainage
Press the drain button to manually
drain the water from the machine, for
example before storage. The water
pump will work for 15 seconds before
stopping.
B.Water drainage
Connect the included water hose to
the pipe on the side of the dehumi-
dier. Lead the other end to a drain
The dehumidier will automatically
drain the water when needed.
If the drain is located above the de-
humidier, the maximum
capacity of the water pump is 3,8 m.
If the water is drained downwards,
there is no limit for the distance. The
width of the water hose is 10 mm.
Water drainage in the crawlspace
If you don’t have a drain in your crawl
space, you can lead the water hose
through a ventilator or hole in wall
to dispose the generated water on
the outside. Please bare in mind that
the maximum capacity of the water
pump is 3,8 m in vertically.
Another option is to make a hole in
the plastic on the ground and lead
the water down in the ground. The
amount of water generated from the
dehumidier is small enough for the
ground to absorb.
C.Connecting the air pipe
By connecting a pipe to the air
exhaust, you’re able to lead the dry,
warm air to a connecting room or
area. This especially benecial for
large or divided crawl spaces or ba-
sements with multiple rooms. Use the
150 mm air pipe provided with the
dehumidier. Maximum length for the
air hose is 3 meter.
1. Mount the air duct connector to
the air exhaust on the side of the
unit. Start from the bottom and push
the connector upwards. Connect the
air pipe to the air duct connector by
rotating the pipe counter-clockwise.
Use the provided air pipe (diameter
150 mm). Max length: 3 m.
2. To dissemble, rst remove the air
pipe by rotating it clockwise. Use
your thumb to press the outer side
plate inwards. Release the buckle on
the air duct connector out of the plate
hole and remove it.

4.The air lter
The air lter prevents dust and dirt
from entering the machine, prolong-
ing its life expectancy. It will also cle-
an the air as dust and other particles
are removed from the air.
It is important the lter is cleaned
regularly, otherwise the dehumidier
might lose capacity and even be
seriously damaged.
Filter cleaning
The air lter is located behind the
front panel (the same side as the
control panel). To access the lter,
you need to remove the front panel:
1. Loosen the two screws (one on
each side) that hold the front panel in
place.
2. Open the front panel downwards.
3. Open the hatch that holds the lter
in place on the inside of the front
panel.
4. Remove the two lter inside.
5. Clean the lter with a soft cleaner
and warm water. Make sure that the
lter is fully dried before reinserting it.
Alternatively, you can clean the lter
with a vacuum cleaner.
6. Reinsert the lter and close the
hatch. Close the front panel and rein-
sert the two screws.
Always unplug the dehumidier
from the power outlet before
maintaining its lter.
5. Maintenance
Use a soft, moist cloth to clean the
machine body. Avoid using solvents
or strong cleaners as this might da-
mage the surface of the dehumidier.
It is important to check the air lter
regularly and clean it when needed.
To clean the lter, please refer to the
section about the air lter.
- The front grid can be vacuum-clea-
ned or cleaned with a brush.
- The cooling coils are best cleaned
with a rag and warm water.
- The fan motor is permanently lubri-
cated and requires no maintenance.
6. Storage
Before storage of the unit, please
follow these steps:
1.When the unit is switched on, press
the drain key to drain the water. Wait
a few minutes and repeat until all
water is emptied.
2. Collect and bundle the power cord
3. Clean the lter
4. Store in a clean, dry environment.
7. Service
If the dehumidier requires servicing,
you must rst contact the retailer.
Proof of purchase is required for all
warranty claims.
8.Warranties
5 years warranty on the compres-
sor, 3 years warranty on other parts.
Please note that the warranty is
only valid upon the production of the
receipt.
This machine complies with EEC
directives 76/889 + 82/499
9. Hints
• When the dehumidier is used in
extremely damp environments or
when the temperature is below
+0˚C, the dehumidier may stop
working. A large amount of ice
builds up on the cooling coil. Turn
off the dehumidier and place it a
little above oor level 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. Even if the DSC-
70ES works down to temperatures
as low as 0°C, its capacity will
increase at higher temperatures as
warm air carries more water.
• 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.
• Expect higher dehumidication
capacity during Autumn / Summer
because the outside air is warmer
and more humid.

Tekniska dataWood’s DSC-70ES Tack!
Tack för att du valt en Wood’s av-
fuktare. Du är en av mer än 300.000
människor som har valt Wood’s
avfuktare för att förebygga skador
orsakade av fukt och mögel. Wood’s
startade i Kanada för mer än 60 år
sedan och har mer än 60 års erfa-
renhet av att utveckla och tillverka
avfuktare. När du väljer en Wood’s
avfuktare kan du vara säker på
att du får en avfuktare av bästa
kvalitet, hög kapacitet och som
kommer att avfukta est liter vatten
per förbrukad kWh
Wood’s DSC-70ES
Wood’s DSC-70ES är en väldigt
kraftfull och robust avfuktare som
är lämplig för krypgrunder, källare,
torkrum och andra större utrym-
men.
Egenskaper:
• Hetgasavfrostning för användning
vid låga temperaturer, ner till 0°C.
• Automatisk pump för vattenavled-
ning.
• Luftrörsanslutning för bättre fördel-
ning av den torra luften.
• Automatisk omstart med minnes-
funktion efter strömavbrott.
• Lätt att använda.
• Effektivt luftlter.
Så fungerar din avfuktare
Wood’s DSC-70ES är en kondens-
avfuktare med en kompressor. När
luften cirkuleras genom rummet och
dras genom avfuktaren med hjälp
av äkten passerar luften över de
kompressorkylda kopparslingorna.
Slingorna kyler ner luften vilket gör
att vattnet separeras från luften.
Vattnet som frigörs droppar ner från
slingorna och leds bort med vat-
tenslangen. Den torra luften som
nns kvar blåses ut i rummet. Då
avfuktaren kondenserar bort vattnet
från luften frigörs värmeenergi. Det
är därför som en kondensavfuktare
blåser ut torr och varm luft vilket är
en stor fördel då man vill torka tvätt,
ved eller kläder.
En kondensavfuktare är det mest
energieffektiva sättet att bli av med
överödig fukt. För att uppnå ett
säkert och pålitligt skydd mot mögel-
och fuktskador rekommenderar vi
att du håller den relativa fuktigheten
mellan 50% och 60%.
1. Säkerhetsföreskrifter
Vänligen läs dessa säkerhetsföre-
skrifter före du använder avfuktaren:
1. Dra alltid ut strömkontakten före
rengöring, förvaring eller innan du
yttar avfuktaren.
2. Håll alltid ett säkert avstånd från
vatten.
3. Håll alltid ett säkert avstånd från
värmekällor eller farliga ämnen.
4. Stoppa aldrig in ngrar eller andra
objekt i luftintaget eller utblåset.
5. Stå inte på maskinen.
6. Vattnet måste dräneras enligt an-
visningarna i manualen.
7.Om strömsladden är skadad måste
den bytas ut av behörig och kunnig
personal.
OBS!
Wood’s avfuktare måste
anslutas till ett jordat eluttag.
(220/240V).
2. Installation och
placering
Wood’s avfuktare är enkla att ytta,
men tänk på följande:
• Avfuktaren skall inte placeras nära
element eller i direkt solljus då det
sänker dess kapacitet.
• Håll alltid ett avstånd på minst
25cm från väggar och andra hinder
för att inte blockera luftödet.
• Placera avfuktaren i mitten av
rummet för bästa resultat.
• Se till att luftödet inte blockeras.
Installation:
1. Placera avfuktaren på ett plant
och stabilt underlag, helst i mitten av
rummet.
2. Koppla den medföljande vat-
tenslangen till anslutningen på sidan
av avfuktaren. Se avsnittet om vatte-
navledning för mer information.
3. Stäng alla fönster och ventilations-
luckor för att förhindra att ny fuktig
luft strömmar in i utrymmet.
4. Koppla avfuktaren till ett jordat
eluttag.
3.Använd din DSC-70ES
Placera avfuktaren på ett plant och
stabilt underlag, helst i mitten av rum-
met. Koppla avfuktaren till ett jordat
eluttag. Då avfuktaren är ansluten
till hörs en signal och strömlampan
tänds på kontrollpanel. Displayen
visar rummets aktuella luftfuktighet.
Hygrostaten
DSC-70ES kommer enbart att arbeta
då rummets luftfuktighet överstiger
ditt inställda värde. När inställd luft-
fuktighet är uppnådd stänger avfuk-
taren automatiskt av sig. När luftfuk-
tigheten stiger kommer avfuktaren att
automatiskt börja arbeta igen.
