Air Purification Features
Quality indoor air plays an important role to ensure the wellbeing of you and your loved ones. Understand how our purification features help you create a healthier environment with clean air indoors.
Anti-Dust Coating
Dust buildups on the fan blades can hinder the cross flow fan from producing optimal air volume. The anti-dust coating on the cross-flow fan prevents dust adherence and also provides anti-bacterial and anti-mould benefits.
Inside Cleaning On Demand
The Inside Cleaning function leverages nanoe™ X technology to cleanse the inside of an indoor unit, minimising microbial growth and delivering cleaner air during cooling operation. The function works by drying the evaporator, air outlet, and filter, while the nanoe™ X generator releases nanoe™ X particles to inhibit pollutants inside the air conditioner.
To activate this function, simply turn off the air conditioner and either hold the nanoe™ X button on the remote control for 3 seconds or tap the 'Inside Clean' icon in the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App. LEARN MORE
nanoe™ X Technology
nanoe™ X technology harnesses the power of hydroxyl radicals to effectively inhibit airborne and adhered pollutants, as well as reduce odours for a fresher, cleaner living space, while moisturising skin and hair. The nanoe™ X generator releases nanoe™ X particles through the airflow.
To activate nanoe™ X without cooling (in fan mode), simply press the nanoe™ X button on your remote control or tap the nanoe™ X mode in the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App. LEARN MORE
nanoe-G
nanoe-G technology effectively removes dust particles by releasing 3 trillion negative ions per second. These ions attach to tiny PM2.5 particles, carrying them back to the unit and get trapped by the air conditioner's filter. This purifies your living environment and promotes better breathing. LEARN MORE
Odour-Removing Function
This function helps prevent unpleasant odours when starting up the air conditioner. The fan is momentarily delayed while the source of the odour inside the air conditioner is suppressed. This function is available in cool or dry mode, with the fan speed set to automatic.
Removable, Washable Panel
This air conditioner features a removable and washable front panel that allows easy access to the filter for routine cleaning.
Comfort Features
Panasonic’s air conditioners integrate several comfort features to provide a cooling and comfortable environment, so you can stay in cool comfort throughout the day.
Auto Mode
Auto Mode selects the appropriate operation mode (cooling or drying) based on the current indoor temperature. The unit initially runs the indoor fan at a low speed for 30 seconds to measure the room temperature. If the temperature is above 23°C, cooling operation is activated; if below 23°C, the unit switches to dry operation.
Once the initial mode is selected, the air conditioner continues to adjust its operation to maintain your desired comfort level. With Auto Mode, you can enjoy optimal indoor conditions without needing manual adjustments.
To activate Auto Mode, use the remote control to press the "Mode" button until "AUTO" is displayed. You can also use Panasonic Comfort Cloud App to select the "A" icon from the operation mode menu.
Cool Mode
Cool mode is the standard setting used to lower the room temperature by removing heat from indoor to outdoor. The air conditioner operates at a higher fan speed, drawing more warm air in. The air then passes over the evaporator coils and circulates back into the room as cool air, maintaining your desired temperature.
Cool mode provides direct cooling, making the room feel more comfortable especially during hot weather.
To activate Cool mode, simply press the "Mode" button on your remote control until "COOL" is displayed. Alternatively, use the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App and select the "Cool" icon to activate Cool mode.
Dry Mode (Soft Dry Operation)
Dry mode is a setting used to remove excess moisture in the room. This mode operates at a lower fan speed, allowing the cool evaporator coils to efficiently condense moisture from the air. The condensed moisture is then collected and drained.
This setting is ideal for combating high humidity levels that can make the temperature feel uncomfortably warm. It's particularly beneficial during rainy seasons or in areas with naturally high humidity.
To activate Dry mode, simply press the "Mode" button on your remote control until "DRY" appears on the display. Alternatively, use the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App and select the "Water Drop" icon from the operation mode menu. Once activated, you can adjust the desired temperature to suit your preference.
Dry Mode with Humidity Sensor
Panasonic air conditioners take Dry mode a step further with a built-in Humidity Sensor. This intelligent feature works in conjunction with Dry mode to automatically reduce and maintain humidity levels below 55%.
This effectively removes excess moisture in the room while preventing over-cooling, which can lead to discomfort. Additionally, it helps prevent the growth of mould and mildew, keeping your indoor air fresh and free of damp smells.
To activate Dry Mode with Humidity Sensor, either use your remote control or the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App.
Using the Remote Control:
1. Turn on the air conditioner.
2. Select “Auto” fan speed.
3. Press “Mode” repeatedly until “Dry” is displayed.

This ensures you reach your comfort level quickly and efficiently.
Activating iAUTO-X is simple – either press the “iAUTO-X” button on your remote control or tap the "i" button within the operation mode menu on the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App. You can easily reactivate iAUTO-X anytime you need another cooling boost. LEARN MORE
iAUTO-X Mode with Humidity Sensor
iAUTO-X with Humidity Sensor goes beyond just cooling by actively monitoring and adjusting room humidity to a comfortable level below 60%. This creates a balanced cooling sensation that is not only refreshing but also promotes better sleep. By working together, iAUTO-X and Humidity Sensor ensure optimal temperature and humidity for a truly relaxing home environment, perfect for unwinding after a long day or enjoying a restful night's sleep.
To activate, press the "iAUTO-X" button on your remote control or tap the "i" button within the operation mode menu on the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App. LEARN MORE
Powerful Mode
Powerful mode provides instant powerful cooling and strong airflow, quickly reaching your set temperature. It works by running the compressor at its maximum frequency and the indoor fan at super high speed.
This mode is perfect for those scorching days when you need immediate relief.
Activating Powerful mode is a breeze – simply press the "POWERFUL" button on your remote control or tap the "Powerful" icon within the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App. LEARN MORE
Quiet Mode
Quiet mode allows the indoor fan to run quietly by lowering its speed, minimising noise levels while the unit operates.
This mode provides quieter operation, making it ideal for situations where noise reduction is desired, such as when you need to relax, study or especially during sleep.
To activate, press the "QUIET" button on your remote control or tap the "Quiet" icon within the Panasonic Comfort Cloud App.
Sleep Mode
Sleep Mode automatically adjusts the temperature throughout the night to create a comfortable sleeping environment. As your body naturally cools down while you sleep, Sleep Mode gently adjusts the temperature to keep you comfortable and prevent you from feeling too cold later on.
When you activate Sleep Mode, the temperature gradually decreases by about 2°C from set temperature within the first hour to create a cooler environment that helps you fall asleep. Over the next three hours, the temperature gently increases by 1°C each hour as your body cools down and needs less cooling.
For the remaining time you selected (up to 9 hours), the temperature remains consistent to prevent chills and ensure restful sleep. Finally, the air conditioner will automatically turn off when the timer runs out.
To Activate:
1. Press “Sleep” button on your remote control.
2. Choose the desired sleep duration using the timer function (0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 hours). This sets how long you want Sleep Mode to run.
To stop or cancel operation, press “Sleep” button on your remote control until the sleep timer reaches 0.0h or press OFF button to switch off the air conditioner.
