Precautions during installation

■Do not put the product in the following places:

Where the product will be exposed to direct

●

sunlight or direct blowing/heat of air conditioner.
(Otherwise, deformation, deterioration,

discoloration or malfunction may be caused.)

Near the window or where the humidity sensor

●

area is blocked.
(It may cause of the humidity sensor not operating

correctly.)

Near a TV set or radio.

●

(Otherwise, distortion or noises may be caused.)

→

Keep 1 m or more away from such devices. If
the power plug is inserted into the same socket
as that of these devices, distortion or noises
may be caused. In this case, insert the power
plug into another socket.

It would be effective
if placed here!

■Place it low on the floor as a countermeasure

against pollen.

Since pollen and dusts are likely to float in the
air near the floor, we recommend you put the
product on the flat floor in the room.

■To circulate the air efficiently around in the

room.

To prevent the air inlet or the air outlet from
being blocked, install the product with its right,
left and the top about 30 cm or more away from
walls or furniture, curtains etc. To ensure
efficient use of the product, keep its back at
least 1 cm away from the wall.

Operating conditions

■Do not place any objects on the product.

(Otherwise, malfunction or failure may be caused.)

Do not place magnets, metallic objects or similar

●

objects on the product.
(Otherwise the built-in magnet detects turnover

causing the “Check indicator” to light up,
which will stop operation of the product.)

■When there is a risk of freeze, please empty the

tank and tray.

(If the product operates with water frozen, failure

may be caused.)

■When using the product in the same area for

extended periods of time

Using the product continuously in one location may
cause the wall, floor or other areas around the
product to become dirty due to the air sucked in at
the bottom of the product.
We recommend to move the product to a different
location occasionally or clean the wall, floor or other
areas regularly.

Features

“Mega catcher” and humidifying function bring clean and
moisturizing air.

■Sensors identify dirt in the air, and the front panel opens widely to suck in air intensively from

the bottom

■A “Human activity sensor” pre-starts operation and collects dust quickly to prevent dirt from

spreading around the room

Product operated while placed next to the wall of an approximately 23 m3
test room. Dust is generated in the center of the room, and the weight of
dust adhered to the HEPA composite filter after 1 hour is measured and
used to calculate the weight of dust falling on the floor. Comparison of
weight of generated dust and weight of dust falling on the floor.
Operating in “House Purifying” mode with no people present. Evaluated by
the test method of Panasonic own. These values are a guided only, the
effect is different depending on the installation environment and the usage.

■“ECONAVI” mode makes electric utility

expense cheaper.

It saves power by stopping operation automatically when
the air is clean. Meanwhile, the product will operate in
advance to eliminate the dirt effectively before spreading,
thus reducing the operation time.

■About “Light sensor mode”

The product detects the indoor brightness with the “Light sensor”
and controls the brightness of indicators or the front indication of
the control panel and air volume automatically. (P.21)

■About the “Human activity sensor”

The product detects movement by people and pets,
and automatically controls the air volume. It
predicts house dust floating around and starts
operation before the air in the room becomes dirty.
