Operating temperature and humidity ranges
This product can only be operated within an ambient temperature range of approximately 1° to 40°C and a humidity
of 20% or higher.
● At temperatures outside the range of 1° to 40°C, dehumidifying operation will stop and only fan operation will
occur.
● If the humidity is less than 20%, the safety mechanism will be activated and operation will be stopped in order to
protect the unit.
Drying clothes
■ Automatic stop function (Dryness sensor)
■ Differences between “Eco (Auto)”, “Hi (Auto)” and “Super (Cont.)”
■ Super alleru-buster
■ Anti-bacteria
During “Eco (Auto)” and “Hi (Auto)” operation, the dryness sensor detects the temperature and humidity, and
uses this as a reference to judge the level of dryness in order to stop operation automatically.
● Guide to operation time before automatic stopping
· If the weight of clothing is approximately 4.0 kg, the dehumidifier will operate for about 4 – 6 hours in “Hi
(Auto)”mode, and for about 6 – 8 hours in “Eco (Auto)” mode. (From tests carried out by Panasonic in a 9.72
square meter room at a temperature of approximately 20°C and a humidity of approximately 70%)
· At the longest, the dehumidifier will stop after about 10 hours.
The actions of the Super alleru-buster and anti-bacteria agents contained in the filter help to inhibit the activity of
allergens, bacteria and mold.
*1 Test results carried out based on Japan Electrical Manufacturers’ Association standard (JEMA-HD090).
Test conditions: Comparison of power consumption for drying in “Eco (Auto)” and “Hi (Auto)” drying operating
modes at a temperature of 20°C, humidity 70% (630 Wh for “Hi (Auto)” / 440 Wh for “Eco (Auto)”)
*2 Test results carried out based on Japan Electrical Manufacturers’ Association standard (JEMA-HD090).
Test conditions: Comparison of time taken for drying clothing corresponding to a weight of 2 kg (3 T-shirts,
2 dress shirts, 1 pair of pyjamas, 7 sets of underwear, 2 pairs of socks, 3 towels) in “Eco (Auto)” and “Super
(Cont.)” drying operating modes in a 9.72 square meter room at a temperature of 20°C, humidity 70%.
● The power consumption and operating time during actual use will vary depending on environment, type and
amount of clothing and the way the clothes are hung.

● The filter has a unique fragrance of catechin. This is normal and is not harmful to the human body.
● The original filter has a light brown color. Some light brown dots may appear on the filter after use.
This is normal and does not affect the filter performance.
