Reducing Growth Of Mildew In Bathroom (Mildew Guard); Downward Air Outlet - Mitsubishi Electric MJ-E130AL-H Instruction Manual

Reducing Growth of Mildew in Bathroom
In this mode, the unit can dehumidify the bathroom to remove residual moisture and water drops, thus suppressing
the mildew growth as a means of mildew prevention.
To install the unit
Install the unit in the changing room
(entrance to the bathroom)
(Do not install inside the bathroom)
CAUTION
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.
Exposure to water may result in fire or electric shock caused by
an electric leak.
For better results, do not turn on the room ventilation
fan or open the window or door when the unit is
operating.
The results may vary depending on the size, floor
and wall materials of the bathroom.
There may be some residual water drops in the
places that can collect water.
Mildew growth may still occur due to the fungus type
and conditions of the room.
<e.g.> Under the containers of the bathroom, deeper
inside of closets and behind furniture and
places with bad air flow.
Places such as inside of the bathtub, under
containers or where the blowing air cannot reach,
cannot be dried.
This mode does not remove existing mildew, scales
and sticky liquids around the sinkhole.
When it is used with the OFF TIMER mode, the unit
may stop operating before completing the drying
operation.
About MILDEW GUARD mode
The unit continues to operate for about another 4 hours after the
humidity decreases to 50% and then stops automatically. The
operation time varies depending on temperature and humidity and
ranges from approximately 4 hours (approximately 6 hours if the
room temperature is below 20°C) to approximately 12 hours.
How is mildew growth suppressed?
Mildew is unable to produce new spores if it is dried as mycelia. This principle is applied to the
MILDEW GUARD function. (However, the spores have high resistance to dryness.)
