Setting Modes - Mitsubishi Electric MJ-E16VX-A1 Instruction Manual

Setting Modes

LOW, MILDEW GUARD and LOW TEMP
LOW mode is for when you want to leave the dehumidifier on. MILDEW GUARD mode suppresses mildew growth.
LOW TEMP mode is for preventing condensation or when the room temperature is low.
Press
 Frame appears around selected mode.
 The amount of dehumidification decreases with the temperature and humidity.
 The humidity level cannot be set with LOW, MILDEW GUARD, and LOW TEMP.
LOW
z
The dehumidifier operates regardless of the humidity level.
MILDEW GUARD
z
 The unit operates intermittently for 2-4 hours a day (24
hours). The operating time varies depending on the humidity.
 The unit continues to operate when the humidity does not
decrease.
• Humidity 40%  Approx. 2 hours
• Humidity 50%  Approx. 4 hours
Refrain from turning on ventilation fans or opening windows or doors as this lowers performance.
z
Mildew growth may still occur due to the fungus type and conditions of the room.
z
E.g. Rooms that contain excessive condensation, bathrooms, and places with bad airflow (insides of closets and
behind furniture).
This mode does not remove existing mildew.
z
Do not use in conjunction with OFF Timer mode. Effects may not be achieved.
z
LOW TEMP
z
When the temperature is low, condensation may still form on windows exposed to the outside air even when

Changes with every press
The unit lowers humidity levels automatically once a day, suppressing
mildew growth.
The unit operates continuously automatically controlling airflow according to
room temperature. The air flow is strongest below 15°C.
The use of LOW TEMP mode is recommended when the Low temperature
indicator is lit.

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.)
