A Clean Filter Greatly Boosts Performance, Giving

Comparison of Mould Growth

A dirty filter is a natural breeding ground for mould and house mites. Their growth can be greatly reduced by keeping the filter clean.

Temperature Distribution Comparison

With the AC Robot, heating performance is maintained even after long use. On the other hand, the power is reduced without filter cleaning.

set to auto mode •After air conditioning stabilizes •Area of simulated-house testing facility: 16.5m2

How It Works

A detailed cleaning programme built into the AC Robot ensures that the entire filter surface stays clean with a highly efficient cleaning process.

•The filter surface is divided into 12 blocks, and the vacuum nozzle cleans each block with a round-trip cleaning operation.

•The number of blocks (amount of surface area) to be cleaned is determined

according to the air conditioner's cumulative operating time.

•Cleaning of the entire surface is completed after 36 operating hours are accumulated.

Auto Filter Cleaning Operation Patterns

Two operations are available. In addition to the normal setting, the timer setting can also be used.

Air Conditioner Operating

Auto Filter Cleaning

Stop

In the normal setting mode (non-timer)

Cleaning automatically starts after each operation. The number of round-trip is determined based on the cumulative operating time.

In the timer setting mode

Cleaning starts at the set time everyday.

*If the air conditioner has not been used for more than 30 minutes since it was cleaned, the cleaning operation will not be done at the preset time.
