FEATURES

Cluster Ion Control

The unit controls the ratio of negative clus­ter ions and positive cluster ions
depending on the condition of the room.

• Clean mode

Approximately the same amount of
positive and negative cluster ions are
discharged. This mode is effective for
removing mold fungus in the air.

• Refresh mode

In this mode, the ratio of negative cluster
ions is increased. Negative ions are ions
that can be found most in the natural en­vironment such as near waterfalls, etc.,
and have a characteristic of gently
refreshing the body.

HEPA Filter

• High-efficiency particulate air filter

Stamina-power carbon

• Powerful deodorization by large particles
of columnar charcoal.
