PRODUCT FEATURES

“House Dust Catcher” and “nanoe™  X” give you clean and fresh air.
■ House Dust Catcher completely cleaning dust from the airnear the floor
■ Equipped with nanoe™ X technology
■ Compact and stylish design
■ About nanoe™ X

• The so-called nanoe™ X are charged water purification particles generated by applying high voltage to separate water molecules.
• nanoe™ X features: high moisture content, small particles, high stability, etc.

1. High moisture content (the moisture content is 1,000 times the moisture content of ordinary anions).
2. Small particles (about 5 nm – 20 nm (nanometers) in size, able to penetrate deep into the fiber and stratum corneum).
3. High stability (6 times more stable than a common ion, covering a distance of 10 m or above).
4. More hydroxyl radicals (up to 4,800 billion of radical sare generated per second).
5. Weak acidity (with weak acidity features close to that of hair and skin).

All o f the above features have been tested by SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services Co., Ltd.
Note: nanoe™ and the nanoe™ mark are trademarks of Panasonic Holdings Corporation.
nanoe™ X are particulate ions containing hydroxyl radicals whose amount is 10 times that of nanoe™.

• If the product is used in a room (especially hotel) with strong odor such as aromatic smell, cigarette smoke or barbecue smell, these odors may adhere to the filter. When the adsorption capacity of filter reaches saturation, odor will also be blown out again with the wind because of excess adsorption. When there is above situation, please clean the HEPA composite filter. If the situation persists, please replace the HEPA composite filter and deodorizing filter, even if the filter replacement icon is off.

FURTHER INFORMATION

About nanoe™ X

• Mi nanoe™ X can be switched off.
  During operation, press and buttons at the same time for about 3 seconds to switch off. (nanoe™ X indicator lights off)
  Please press the buttons for about 3 seconds again to restart the nanoe™ X.

• Conditions for nanoe™ X generation
  nanoe™ X is generated using the air in the room. Therefore, depending on the temperature and humidity, nanoe™ X may not be generated stably.

  • Room temperature: about 5ºC~35°C (dew-point temperature: 2°C and above)
  • Relative humidity: about 30%~85 %

• When nanoe™ X is generated, small amount of ozone will be released. However, the quantity will be far less than the level in natural environment such as forest, and not be harmful to human beings.

About HEPA composite filter
The HEPA composite filter which with the Bio-sterilization and Super Allergy-buster can inhibit allergens (pollen, dead mites and feces), bacteria and mold.

• Super Allergy-buster: inhibits the activity of allergens (pollen, dead mites and feces).
  Testing authority: Osaka Municipal Technical Research Institute
  Test method: check the decrease of refined house dust mite allergen, by using enzyme immune measuring method.
  Inhibiting method: contact with Super Allergy-buster
  Target: allergens trapped by the filter (mites, pollen)
  Test result: inhibited 99% and above. (Daikou research report No. 2127)

• The HEPA composite filter may give off unique and harmless smell of “Green Tea Catechin”, “Bio-sterilization” and ‘ “Super Allergy-buster”.

About odor sensor
The sensor can detect the pollution of the air, and show the pollution level by indicator. The product can optimize the air volume automatically in auto operation according to the air quality.

•The wind generated when a door is opened or closed, or sudden temperature changes

• The sensor’s operation may vary depending on the indoor airflow condition if a heater is placed near the product in a room.
• The sensor is not designed to detect bacteria and viruses.
