Reducing Growth Of Mildew In Bathroom; "Bathroom Mildew Guard - Mitsubishi Electric MJ-EZ6CX-H Instruction Manual

Reducing Growth of Mildew in Bathroom (Bathroom Mildew Guard)
This operation is for reducing the growth of mildew by drying the inside of a bathroom to remove any humidity and droplets that
remain inside after, for example, you take a bath. This operation can also be used as a measure for tackling mildew in rooms.
Installing the Dehumidifi er
Install the unit in the dressing room (entrance to
the bathroom).
(Do not install the unit inside the bathroom.)
Do not use the unit in a bathroom or other
location where it is likely to come into contact
with water, or wash it with water.
The unit does not have a drip-proof or water-proof
structure. Water coming into contact with the unit may
result in a fi re due to a short circuit, or an electric shock.
Rough Guide on Usage
Location to be dehumidifi ed
Bathroom (bathroom +
dressing room)
Room
For more effective operation, use the unit within the above ranges.
For effective use, keep the windows and doors of the room closed and do not ventilate the room during operation.
Operation may not be suffi ciently effective if the bathroom is spacious or because of the building materials used for the
fl oor and walls of the bathroom.
Drops of water may remain in places where water collects easily.
Mildew may grow depending on the room conditions and the type of mildew.
Example: Where air circulation is poor such as beneath a container or the like in the bathroom or at the back of a cupboard
or behind furniture in the bathroom.
This operation cannot dry locations where the airfl ow cannot reach such as inside a bathtub and beneath a container.
This operation cannot remove existing mildew and water scale, or slime in the drain outlet.
If this operation is used in conjunction with the off timer, operation may stop before drying is complete.
About Bathroom Mildew Guard Operation
After dehumidifying is performed until the humidity reaches 50%,
operation is performed for approximately 4 hours and then stopped
automatically. The operation time varies depending on the temperature
and humidity, but the minimum time is approximately 4 hours
(approximately 6 hours when the room temperature is 20°C or less) and
the maximum time is approximately 12 hours.
How is mildew growth suppressed?
Mildew is unable to produce new spores if dried as mycelia. The Mildew Guard feature applies
this principle. (However, the spores themselves are resilient to dry conditions.)
