Woods WCD6HG, User Manual

4. Set dehumidification mode

The WCD6HG has 3 different modes; 

automatic dehumidification (AU), 

continuous dehumidification (CO), 

and normal dehumidification. 

Press the MODE key to toggle 

between the different modes.

AU: Automatic dehumidification 

Automatic dehumidification is the 

easiest way to use the WCD6HG. In 

this mode, the unit will automatically 

set a comfortable and safe humidi-

ty level depending on the ambient 

temperature: 

Temperature below 5°C: 

The compressor shuts off. 

Temperature between 5°C-20°C: 

humidity level is set at 60% RH

Temperature between 20°C-27°C: 

humidity level is set at 55% RH

Temperature above 27°C: 

humidity level is set at 50% RH

CO: Continuous Dehumidifying 

In continuous dehumidification mode, 

the unit will run continuously until 

shut off, despite ambient humidity or 

temperature. 

Normal Dehumidifying 

(the display shows ambient humidity 

or set humidity).  

The dehumidifier will operate accor-

ding to your set humidity level. Set 

the humidity according to the instruc-

tions above.

4.Water drainage

Connect the included water hose to 

the pipe on the side of the dehumi-

difier. Lead the other end to a drain. 

The dehumidifier will automatically 

drain the water when needed. 

If the drain is located above the 

dehumidifier, the maximum capacity 

of the water pump is 5 m. If the water 

is drained downwards, there is no 

limit for the distance. The width of the 

water hose is 12 mm.

Manual water drainage

Press and hold TIME/PUMP key to 

drain the water manually. The water 

pump will work for 20 seconds before 

stopping. Repeat until all water is 

drained.

Drain the water manually before sto-

ring or moving the unit.

5. The air filter

The air filter prevents dust and dirt 

from entering the machine, prolong-

ing its life expectancy.

It is very important that the 
filter is cleaned regularly; 
otherwise the dehumidifier 
might lose capacity and even 
be seriously damaged.

Filter cleaning

1. Open the front panel (see fig A). 

2. Remove the filter inside. 

3. Clean the filter with a soft cleaner 

and warm water. Make sure that the 

filter is fully dried before reinserting it. 

Alternatively, you can clean the filter 

with a vacuum cleaner.

4. Reinsert the filter and close the 

front panel.

6. 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 front and side grids can be 

vacuum-cleaned or cleaned with a 

brush.

- The cooling coils are best cleaned 

with a rag and warm water.

7. Service

If the dehumidifier requires servicing, 

you must first contact your local retai-

ler. Proof of purchase is required for 

all warranty claims.

8. Warranties

2 years product warranty. 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

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 WCD-

6HG 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 dehumidification 

capacity during Autumn / Summer 

because the outside air is warmer 

and more humid.

To achieve a safe and reliable pro-

tection against mould and moisture 

damage, keep the relative humidity 

between 50% and 60%.
