Getting the most out of your dehumidifier
Combine operating mode and swing louvre function to get optimum results.
Drying laundry indoors
¡Use the dehumidifier in
a small, enclosed room.
¡Direct the louvers at the
laundry.
¡Space laundry to
improve airflow
¡Maintain room
temperature above 16°C with an air
conditioner
• In low temperatures, drying takes about twice as long as
normal. (Drying times will vary depending on the nature of
the laundry and the room temperature.)
• The airflow is strongest to the top right of the unit.
Installing your dehumidifier
Make sure to leave some
space around the unit.
Operating noise
Place the unit on top of a mat. This reduces
vibration and noise. It also prevents leaving
depressions on carpets.

Things to be aware of
How does the dehumidifier
work?
If you pour cold water into a cup, the air around
it becomes cold, causing water droplets to form
on the surface of the cup.
The dehumidifier takes advantage of this
phenomenon to remove moisture from the air.
1The unit draws air from the room, cools it with
its cooling coil, causing the moisture to
transform into water droplets.
2The water droplets fall into the water tank.
3The dehumidified air is reheated by the
heating coil, and then discharged.
The humidity of the room is thus reduced by
repeating steps 1, 2, and 3.
How is mildew growth
suppressed?
Mildew is unable to produce new spores if dried
as mycelia. The Mildew Guard feature applies
this principle. (However, the spores themselves
are resilient to dry conditions.)
“Identification of Aspergillus and Penicillium”
<Research paper by Dr. K. Abe of the
Environmental Biology Research Center>
What are negative ions?
Negative ions are particles in the air that
possess a negative charge.
When there are a lot of negative ions in the air, it
is similar to the environment encountered in a
forest and is said to provide relaxation.
Re-heating coil
Cooling coil
Moist air
Compressor
Dried (warm) air
Water tank
The dehumidifier does not have a cooler function. Due
to heat produced during operation, the room
temperature may rise 2-4°C. As a result, the unit may
blow warm air, but this is not due to a malfunction.
Even in the same room, temperature and humidity levels
may differ from place to place. If the hygrometer and
the unit are in different parts of the room, the humidity
levels are prone to differ.
Moreover, humidity levels differ between places that
have good and no airflow.
Use the reading on the unit as an estimate.
In winter, the temperature is low and the air is dry,
therefore making dehumidifying impossible.
* If temperatures are low, but humidity is high due to
snow or rain, operating the unit in Low Temp mode will
yield better results than Low mode.
Values for HIGH dehumidifying operation
¡The dehumidification values shown on the graph
were measured at constant temperature and humidity
and do not reflect actual usage conditions.

to drain to the tank.
∞The unit can operate in a room temperature
range of 1-35°C.
If the room temperature exceeds 35°C, the
inside of the unit heats triggering the protection
mechanism, stopping operation. When using
the louvre, point UP.
Never operate the dehumidifier when the room
temperature is above 40°C.
•If the temperature is below 1°C, the
extracted water is close to freezing disabling
the dehumidifier, and only the blower is

Information

When you want to dehumidify easily (without the hassles of setting humidity levels)
When you want to dry clothes quickly
(without the hassles of calculating humidity levels and timer settings for the amount of laundry)
¡Laundry The unit operates for 12 hours and automatically swiches off.
∞ Empty the water tank before operating the unit. The unit may stop before the clothes are dry due to a full tank.
∞Do not use in conjunction with OFF Timer mode. The unit may stop before the clothes are dry.
∞The following conditions prevent clothes from drying well:
Room temperature below 15°C, large volume of laundry; laundry not spaced well; clothes of thick fabric
and spacious room.
∞When the room temperature is below 5°C, less water evaporates from the clothes, decreasing the
amount of temperature change. Therefore the unit is unable to detect the state of the laundry and
may turn off after 1 hour.
∞Restart the unit if it turns off before the laundry dries (except when the temperature is below 5°C).
