Things To Be Aware Of; Before Using Your Dehumidifier - Mitsubishi Electric MJ-E14CG-S1-SWE Instruction Manual

Things to Be Aware of

Room temperature may rise 2-4°C
during operation
The dehumidifier does not have a cooler function.
Due to heat produced during operation, the room
temperature may rise 2–4°C. As a result, the unit may
blow warm air, but this is not due to a malfunction.
During winter, the air may not feel warm as the
temperature is below body temperature.
How does the dehumidifier
work?
If you pour cold water into a cup, the air around
it becomes cold, causing water droplets to form
on the surface of the cup.
The dehumidifier takes advantage of this
phenomenon to remove moisture from the air.
1 The unit draws air from the room, cools it
with its cooling coil, causing the moisture to
transform into water droplets.
2 The water droplets fall into the water tank.
3 The dehumidified air is reheated by the
heating coil, and then discharged.
The humidity of the room is thus reduced by
repeating steps 1, 2, and 3.

The humidity reading on the unit
may differ from a hygrometer in
the same room
Even in the same room, temperature and humidity
levels may differ from place to place. If the hygrometer
and the unit are in different parts of the room, the
humidity levels are prone to differ. Moreover, humidity
levels differ between places that have good and no
airflow.
Use the reading on the unit as an estimate.
