OPERATION MANUAL
*The number in this technical label indicates the
approximate amount of ions that the Plasmacluster
Ion Generating Unit emits into every 1 cm3of air,
measured at a point near the center of a room with
the applicable oor area (1.2 m above the oor) with
the main unit placed near a wall and operating at fan
speed "6".

• While IG-HH1A can remove suspended viruses and other contaminants, it
cannot create a completely sterile environment. SHARP does not guarantee its
ability to prevent microbial infection.
• To enable stable emission of high-density Plasmacluster ions, the
Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit mounted in IG-HH1A will need to be
replaced periodically.*
*Replacement is required approximately every 2 years (17,500 hours) when
operated 24 hours a day.
IG-HH1A will stop operating after about 2 years and 2 months (19,000 hours) if
the Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit is not replaced.
Thank you for purchasing this SHARP High Density Plasmacluster Heat & Cool Ion
Fan.

ASKED QUESTIONS
Please also refer to
"TROUBLESHOOTING"
on pages E-20 and E-21.
Are there ON/OFF Timer functions?
You can set "OFF Timer" by pressing the TIMER button during operation. (See page E-12.)
You can set "ON Timer" by pressing the TIMER button while not in operation. (See page E-12.)
*The ON Timer and OFF Timer cannot be set at the same time.
Is it possible to start hot fan operation with the remote controller?
For safety reasons, you cannot start hot fan operation/foot warming operation and set the
timers with the remote controller.
Operation fails?
● Have you made sure the plug is fully inserted into the power outlet?
Insert the plug into the outlet securely. (See page E-3.)
● Is the fuse or circuit breaker damaged?
Use a power outlet rated at 220 V 13 A.
● Is the Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit securely mounted?
Mount it securely. (See page E-19.)
● Is the main unit tilted and unsteady? Place it on a horizontal surface. (See page E-5.)
● Is child lock set? Cancel the child lock setting. (See page E-15.)
Is there any “Zi” sound?
It’s the sound of Plasmacluster ions emission and is normal.
(The sound may be heard at different intervals.)
Depending on the operation environment or mode, the sound may be loud, soft or silent,
but the emission of Plasmacluster ions will not be affected.
* The emission of Plasmacluster ions is not affected by the operation mode.
IG-HH1A_0607.indd 2 2017/06/13 13:24:03

Power cord, plug and socket
● Do not use the unit at any voltage other than AC
220 V. (Fire and/or electric shock may result.)
● Do not damage, fabricate, forcibly bend, pull, twist,
bind or heat the power cord.
● Do not place a heavy load on the plug or power
cord or pinch them.
(The power cord could be damaged to result in re
and/or electric shock.)
● Do not connect the twisted power cord to a power
supply.
(The power cord could be overheated to result in
re and/or electric shock.)
● Do not plug in or out with a wet hand. (Electric
shock may result.)
● Do not use the unit if the power cord or plug is
deformed, damaged, abnormally hot, or the
connection to the outlet is loosened, or discontinue
when moving the power cord. (Smoke emission
and/or re may result due to electric shock and/or
short circuit.)
● If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by the manufacture, its service agent or similarly
qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.
● In case of abnormality, power off and unplug the
unit.
(Fire and/or electric shock may result.)
● Use a power outlet rated at 13 A.
(Sharing a socket with other appliances will result
in re due to abnormal heating.)
● Make sure to insert the plug fully into an outlet.
(Smoke emission and/or re may result due to
electric shock and/or short circuit.)
● Remove dust from the plug on a periodic basis.
(If dust accumulates, it may collect humidity and
prevent insulation. Fire and/or electric shock may
result.)
● Be sure to unplug the unit before carrying out
maintenance. (It may cause burns and/or electric
shock due to sudden operation.)
During operation and maintenance
● In order to avoid overheating, do not cover the
heater.
● Do not insert ngers, rods and other foreign
objects into the air inlet or air outlet. (Electric shock
and/or failure could result.)
● Do not place any dangerous object such as spray
etc. near the main unit.
(Pressure in the spray may be increased by the
heat and it may cause explosion or re.)
● Do not alter the unit. Only trained service
personnel are authorized to disassemble or repair
the unit.
(Otherwise it may cause re and/or electric shock.
It's dangerous to touch the inner of the unit where
the voltage is very high.)
● Do not use chlorinated or acid detergent to clean
the unit.
(Such detergent may produce toxic gases that are
harmful to health.)
● Perform maintenance after the main unit becomes
cool. Wait for more than 30 minutes after the unit
stops operating.
(Burn or electric shock may result.)
● This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision and instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
● This heater is not equipped with a device to control
the room temperature. Do not use this heater in
small rooms when they are occupied by persons
not capable of leaving the room on their own,
unless constant supervision is provided.
● Take care of the people around (It may cause
a burn.) Pay special attention to the following
persons:
• Infants
• Those who are unable to operate the unit by
themselves

ENGLISH
CAUTIONTo avoid electric shock or injury, and to protect the property, etc.
● Do not use items containing uororesin or silicone* near the unit.
* Hair care products (split end coatings, hair mousse, hair treatments, etc.), cosmetics, antiperspirants, antistatic
agents, waterproong sprays, polishes, glass cleaners, chemical-impregnated clothes, wax, etc.
The uororesin or silicone residue may coats the inner part of the unit, preventing it from producing Plasmacluster
ions. (Error "U3" will be shown on the display.) In this case, clean the electrode section of the Plasmacluster Ion
Generating Unit. (See page E-17.)

How to use the remote controller
Remote controller receiver
3 m or less (Standard)
Point the remote controller towards
the receiver and press the desired
button for operation.
It may not work if the pointing
direction is out of range, or there
is blocking between the transmitter
and the receiver.
Do not drop or throw
the remote controller.
Do not wet the remote
controller.
● When batteries are low, the operation range of the remote controller may become smaller.
● Signal interference may happen when used under certain uorescent lamps or direct sunlight.
● Incorrect usage of batteries may cause the remote controller to corrode due to electrolyte leakage or
explosion of the batteries.
• Do not recharge, disassemble or heat the batteries.
• When replacing the batteries, always change both and use the same type.
• If the unit will not be used for a long time, remove the batteries from the remote controller. (This is to avoid
damage due to electrolyte leakage.)
● Do not leave the remote controller in places where infants can reach. (It may cause sickness to infants due to
incorrect usage or they may swallow the batteries by accident.)
● If electrolyte leak from battery gets into your eyes or contacts with your skin or clothes, wash with sufcient
clean water immediately, and consult with a doctor if necessary.
CAUTION
