Things To Be Aware Of; Before Using Your Dehumidifier; Water Tank - Mitsubishi Electric MJ-E16AX-H 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.

Before using your
Setting the silver ion
filter
The silver ion filter is supplied with the
unit at time of purchase. Fit silver ion
before using the unit.
1

1 Remove holding the
bottom.
Performance is unaffected even if
the metal fins inside the main unit
are slightly bent.
3
Fit the silver ion filter into the
