FEATURES
Cluster Ion Balance Control
TheunitcontrolstheratioofNegativeclus-
ter ions and Positive cluster ions depend-
ing on the condition of the room.
•Clean mode
Approximately the same amount of Posi-
tive and Negative cluster ions are dis-
charged.Thismode is effectiveforreduc-
ing some airborne mold.
•Ion control mode
It is said that plenty of Negative cluster
ions exist in places such as waterfalls or
forests in natural environment. In this op-
eration mode, Negative cluster ions will
be released in an increased rate, in order
tobringthe room atmosphereclosetothis
condition.
•AUTO cluster ion mode
The unit will switch between Clean mode
and Ion control mode automatically de-
pending on the amount of pollution in the
air detected by dust and odor sensor.
HEPA filter
•High-efficiency dust collection
Active carbon filter
Powerful deodorization by large particles
of columnar charcoal.

FU-55SE_Eng.6.5 03.7.17, 8:53 AM11

GUIDE FOR OPERATION
GUIDE FOR ODOR SENSOR
•In addition to odor such as cigarette smoke and pet odor, the odor sensor also responds to the
following.
• Insecticide, cosmetics, spray, alcohol.
•Sudden changes in temperature or humidity.
•When the unit is in automatic operation and cosmetics or the like are used in a closed room, it
is normal for the sensor to respond by increasing the air flow. If this is not desirable, change
the sensitivity of the sensor.
GUIDE FOR DUST SENSOR
•The dust sensor detects dust particles in room air, such as cigarette smoke and house dust.
•Compared with cigarette smoke, the amount of dust released when making your bed is so
small that it may not be detected by the dust sensor. Therefore, the amount of dust seen with
the eye may differ from the indication of the clean-sign lamp.
GUIDE FOR FILTER RESET BUTTON
•After replacing filters, make sure to connect the power plug to a wall outlet, and press the filter
reset button on the main unit or on the remote control. The “BEEP” sound indicates that the
stored operating time has been reset.
If the filter lamp is lit at that time, it will now go off.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Before calling for repair, check the symptoms below for possible remedies, since the problem may
not be a malfunction of the unit.
SYMPTOM REMEDY (not a malfunction)
The remote control does not
work •Have the batteries been depleted?
•Are the batteries inserted correctly?
•Is a fluorescent lighting in the room flickering due to service
life? (Refer to E-3,E-7)
Odor and dust cannot be re-
moved easily •Are the filters heavily soiled? (Refer to E-14)
The CLEAN-SIGN lamp lights

HAUPTMERKMALE
Cluster-Ionen-Balanceregelung
Das Gerät regelt das Verhältnis der
Negativ-Cluster-IonenundPositiv-Cluster-
Ionen in Abhängigkeit vom Raumklima.
•Reinigungsmodus
Es werden etwa die gleiche Anzahl an
Positiv- und Negativ-Cluster-Ionen
ausgegeben. Dieser Modus reduziert
bestimmte in der Luft befindliche
Schimmelpilze.
•Ionen-Regelungsmodus
Eine große Anzahl an Negativ-Cluster-
Ionensollengrößtenteilsindernatürlichen
Umwelt, wie beispielsweise in der Nähe
vonWasserfällenoderWälderngefunden
werdenkönnen.IndiesemBetriebsmodus
werden mehr Negativ-Cluster-Ionen
ausgegeben, damit die Luft im Raum an
diese Umweltbedingung heranreicht.
•AUTO-Cluster-Ionen-Modus
Das Gerät wechselt je nach Verschmut-
zungsgrad der Luft, erkannt vom Staub-
und Geruchssensor, automatisch
zwischen Reinigungsmodus und Ionen-
Regelungsmodus.
