2.Login with your original Panasonic ID and password. Now go to Menu>>Account management>>Setup the login method.
3.Enable the social media account for login.
The previous account is registered as an owner user on the air conditioner, and the new account is recognized as an additional user and is waiting for approval from the owner user. In this case, initialise the air conditioner settings, and try registering again with a new account. The initialisation method is as follows.
● Factory Reset your Wi-Fi Device
Password
Make sure you meet the password requirements shown on screen. In addition, you may not be able to register if the password contains a character string included in your email address or name, or a well-known proper noun.
The device password is the password you set for the air conditioner. Keep the device password in a safe place because the second user will need it to register the device.
If you enter a different device password than the one set by the owner user, this error message will be displayed. Ask the owner user for the device password and wait for the approval. If you are unable to contact the owner user, please initialise your device as follows:
● Factory Reset your Wi-Fi Device
If you forget the device password, initialise the air conditioner setting and register it in the app again. Note that when you perform initialisation, the past settings and data will be lost. The initialisation method is described below.

Wi-Fi connection
When the Wi-Fi router is replaced (SSID and PW are changed), please follow the below procedure:
1. Select the air conditioner unit
2. Select menu (top right corner, icon with three lines)
3. Select "Owner" or "User settings"

Change Router Settings
Close the Comfort Cloud app and launch it again. If that doesn't work, uninstall and reinstall Comfort Cloud.
As a guideline, connect your smartphone to the Wi-Fi router and check the antenna display on the smartphone in the area where you plan to install an air conditioner. You can use the service if the Wi-Fi network NOT switching to LTE, 5G, 4G or other mobile phone lines, having one less antenna than the maximum. If the network strength is insufficient, introducing a repeater may solve the problem.
*Connection may not be possible depending on the usage status of other Wi-Fi devices or changes in the surrounding environment.
A 2.4 GHz band Wi-Fi network is required to connect the air conditioner to the router. If your router supports 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz band with one SSID, you may be able to use the 2.4 GHz band by turning off the router's steering function.
*For some air conditioner, you can proceed with device registration even when the steering function is on.
*For more information about router features, contact your ISP.
Make sure that your Wi-Fi router has 2.4GHz band network.
*Prepare a model that supports WPA2-PSK (AES) or WPA2-PSK (TKIP).
*Cannot be used with wireless LAN broadband routers in the 5GHz band only.
A wireless router supporting IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11 g, or IEEE802.11n (2.4 GHz band) is required.
*App is not compatible with mobile routers.
*You cannot use the model with WEP only.
If the connection between your air conditioner and router is frequently lost, please check if the 2.4GHz band Wi-Fi around the air conditioner is stable.
If your router has a band steering function that frequently switches between the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, this might cause the connection between the air conditioner and router to be lost. Please ensure that this function is disabled.
If the issue persists, contact the local Panasonic support.

Statistics
Power consumption is estimated based on the operating conditions of outdoor units and indoor units. The actual value may differ.
Data for the past two years can be viewed on the power consumption graph. In the case of 2024, data from 2022 to 2024 is available.
The small consumptions you're noticing in the statistics menu are related to standby consumptions from the device.
The energy consumption values are calculated independently by the two devices: the Remote Controller and the Cloud Adapter. Because of this independent calculation, there might be differences in the displayed values.
Per example, if there's an internet blackout lasting 8 hours, the Cloud Adapter won't cummulate energy consumption during that period since it relies on the internet. However, the remote, which operates without internet dependency, will continue to cummulate consumption even during the internet blackout.
●Please refer to this website: Check Air Conditioner Energy Consumption
Operating data other than heating or cooling is displayed as 'OTHER.' This includes modes such as FAN mode and DRY mode.
