The air-conditioner first has to be turned off.

Remark: Main power must be switched on for the entire duration.

The fan operation will run automatically for 30 minutes with 
the louvre slightly open to ensure the internal components 
are dry and free from condensation.

Remark: The 30-minute fan operation is only applicable when the 
unit has been operated in COOL /DRY mode.

Fan Operation: On
Louvre: Low Louver Angle
Nanoe-G LED: On

“Performance evaluation of a novel ionizer for air purification applications”. Dr. S. Rudnick et al. Harvard School of Public Health, Environmental Health 
Nanoscience Lab. A study of the removal effect of airborne bacteria by using an air-conditioner incorporating nanoe-G was carried out in a large space, and the 
results were presented at Nano-Symposium jointly held in September 2012 by Harvard University and Kyoto University.

Test methods: Bacteria removal method: Release of nanoe-G ions. Target: Airborne bacteria, Test results: It is estimated that after three hours of operation the 
nanoe-G will achieve 2.7 log10 reductions, ~ 1 log10 reduction more, as compared to without nanoe-G.

KRCES-Bio. Test Report 
No. 23_0140

In view of health hazard associated with spatial distribution of Influenza (H1N1) 2009 virus, nanoe-G removal effectiveness cannot be tested in large 
test room (25m³). When tested in 200 Litre chamber, nanoe-G was able to decrease Influenza (H1N1) 2009 virus (99%) when it was operated for 5 
minutes. Additionally when tested in larger test room (25m³), nanoe-G can remove 99.5% of Coli phage virus when operated for 120 minutes. It was 
validated that evaluation on the influenza virus could be speculated from the results on the phage according to the test results in a 200 Litre test 
chamber. It appeared that the air-conditioners in a larger test room (25m³) would be able to remove the influenza virus as effectively as the phage.
