Defrosting operation
The evaporator in the
dehumidifier may defrost
automatically if it is operated
in the room temperature less
than 18 C. The defrosting device
may start up and operate for
some time (about 5 minutes)
automatically every 25 minutes
or even longer.
During the defrosting operation,
the dehumidification function
and air purification function
may intermit.
Please don’t turn o the switch
or pull out the power plug of
the dehumidifier during the
defrosting operation.
This dehumidifier can’t be
applicable to keep extreme low
temperature.
The purpose of this

unpleasant high humidity in
daily life and dry the wet things.
But it can’t be used to keep
extreme low temperature.
The room temperature increases
during the operation.
This dehumidier doesn´t have
colling function. It will produce
heat during the operaton and
increase the room temperature
to 1 to 4°C. In addition, the door
and windows are closed and
other appliances in the room
can give out heat as well as the
radiation of the sun can raise
the room termperature.

WOOD’S, ONE OF THE WORLD’S
LEADING DEHUMIDIFIERS
Wood’s dehumidier products have
been known as market leaders for
many years. Their dehumidiers are
suitable for use in the most deman-
ding climates, where dehumidify-
ing capacity is good even at lower
temperatures and humidity levels.
They are used with good results in
premises that become damp such as
cellars, garages or summer house.
They are also excellent for drying
washing, attics, pool rooms and
laundry. Being efcient and low on
energy consumption. Does not wear
out clothes.
The amount of humidity that the
dehumidier removes depends on
temperature, humidity level and pla-
cement. External weather conditions
may also affect the performance of
the dehumidier. In cold weather the
absolute humidity decreases and
thus the extraction of humidity from
the air by the dehumidier is redu-
ced. (The relative humidity might still
be on a high level.) The dehumidier
is suitable for use in the temperature
range +5˚C to +32°C.Wood’s dehu-
midiers are safe in operation and
intended for continuous use over
many years.
EXCESSIVE AIR HUMIDITY – A
DANGER
Condensation occurs when water
vapour in the air comes into contact
with a cold surface such as cold
window or wall. When water vapour
is cooled down, condensation occurs,
and water-drops are formed. In
high air humidity, the air may get
musty and mould might get formed,
causing damage to a house and its
furnishings. This environment may
even cause illness for the residents.
Mites and spiders also thrive in a damp
environment. A dehumidier with high
performance creates a good, healthy
humidity level. For greatest eciency
the doors and windows of rooms that
are being dehumidied should be kept
closed. Removes odours, dries wood
and removes moisture from outdoors
equipment.
A dehumidier may be used in cellars,
washrooms, garages, crawl spaces,
caravans, summer-houses and on
boats. If the humidier is kept in colder
environments, you should study the
Hints at the end of the manual.
PLACEMENT OF DEHUMIDIFIER
Wood’s dehumidiers are easy to move
around, all you need to have is a power
source for 220/240V, but bear in mind
the following:
- The dehumidifier should not be placed
near radiators or other heat sources
or exposed to direct sunlight, as it will
reduce performance.
- It is beneficial to use a radiator or
heating fan to keep the temperature
above +5˚C.
- The dehumidifier should stand at
least 20-30cm from a wall or other
obstruction, for maximum air flow.
- Ideal is to put it in the center
of the room / area.
Operation manual

mode; In this mode, fan speed, capa-
city and noise level will decrease to
lower level.
1.Water drainage
When the water reservoir is full, the
dehumidier is shut off automatically.
Once the water reservoir is emptied
the unit will automaticallt restart.
1.Disconnect the dehumidier from
the power source.
2.Empty the water reservoir.
3.Put the empty water reservoir back
and check that the oat moves
freely.
4.Connect the dehumidier to the
power source.
Direct water drainage
Connect a water hose to the pipe
on the back of the dehumidier.
Lead the other end to a drain. Make
sure that the water can be drained
downwards.
2. The air lter
The air lter prevents dust and
dirt from entering the machine,
prolonging its life expectancy. It
is important the lter is cleaned
regularly.
Filter cleaning:
1. Remove the lter.
2. Wash it with warm water and
a mild cleansing agent.
Alternatively the lter may be
vacuum cleaned.
3. Let the lter dry and put it back.

3. Maintenance
- Clean the unit with a soft moist
cloth. Do not use solvents or strong
cleaners as this might damage the
surface of the unit.
- The cooling coils are best cleaned
with a rag and warm water.
4. Service
If the dehumidier requires servicing,
you must rst contact your local retai-
ler. Proof of purchase is required for
all warranty claims.
5. Warranties
2 years product warranty. Please
note that the warranty is only valid
upon the production of the receipt.
NOTE! Get a 3-years warranty!

Sometimes it may be useful to use
a frost guard or heater fan to make
sure that the temperature does not
fall below +10˚C. Even if the MRD12
works down to temperatures as low
as +5°C, its capacity will increase
at higher temperatures as warm air
carries more water.
6. Storage
Before storage of the unit, please
follow these steps:
1.When the unit is switched off empty
the water tank from water and put it
back.
2. Collect and bundle the power cord
3. Clean the lter
4. Store in a clean, dry environment.
Proof of purchase is required for all
warranty claims.
7. Hints
When the dehumidier is used in
extremely damp environments or
when the temperature is below +5˚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 +10˚C. Even if the MRD12
work down to temperatures as low as
+5°C, its capacity will increase at hig-
her temperatures as warm air carries
more water.
The hygrostat has a margin of error
of approx. +/- 5-10%. At lower tem-
peratures, the margin of error might
increase further.
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.
Recommended limits for use:
Temperature: +5°C to +32°C
Relative humidity: 30% to 80%
