Frequently Asked Questions - MCK70YBFVM DAIKIN

How often should I clean the pre-filter?
Clean the pre-filter about every 2 weeks. Remove dust with a vacuum cleaner or wash with water, then dry in shade.
Can I use the humidifying operation without water?
No, always fill the water tank with tap water before using humidifying operation. Running without water may damage the unit.
Why is no steam visible during humidifying operation?
This unit uses natural vaporization, not boiling. Air passes through the humidifying filter to add moisture, so no steam is visible.
What does the blinking streamer lamp indicate?
A blinking streamer lamp means it is time to clean the streamer unit. Follow the cleaning instructions on page 32 of the manual.
Can I use essential oils or aroma oils in the water tank?
No, do not add any aroma oils, chemical agents, or detergents to the water tank. These can cause deformation or malfunction.
Why does the humidity level shown differ from my other hygrometer?
Humidity varies throughout the room due to airflow. The display is a rough estimate. Differences of up to 5% are normal.
How do I reset the filter replacement indicator?
This model does not have a filter replacement indicator. Replace the dust collection filter about every 10 years or when performance declines.
Can I wash the deodorising filter?
No, do not wash the deodorising filter with water. Vacuum it to remove dust. If odour persists, leave it in a breezy shaded area for about a day.
What should I do if the water supply lamp remains on after adding water?
Ensure the humidifying tray is securely attached and the float moves freely. Check that the water tank cap is tightened correctly.
Is it normal to hear a hissing sound during operation?
Yes, a hissing sound is normal and comes from the streamer discharge. It does not indicate a defect.

Names of Parts and Operations

Front indicator lamps

Dust sensor lamp/PM2.5 sensor lamp

Indicates the volume of ambient dust in 3 colours: blue, orange, red.

  • Blue indicates that the air is clean.
  • The dust/PM2.5 sensor can detect small (about 1.0-2.5μm) and large (about 2.5μm and above) dust particles. The PM2.5 lamp lights in response to small particles and the dust lamp lights in response to large dust particles.

Lamp colour

Blue range

Dust

Few Many

■ After operation is started, the lamp will light blue for about the first minute regardless of air impurity level.

If the responsiveness of the dust/PM2.5 sensor is poor, change the sensitivity setting of the sensor. Page 23
If the airflow rate setting is set to "Turbo", the responsiveness of the dust/PM2.5 sensor may be poor. The strong airflow causes dust to be drawn into the air inlets before it can be detected by the dust/PM2.5 sensor. This is normal (not a malfunction).

Dust/PM2.5 sensor detection range

Detectable matter
house dust, tobacco smoke, pollen, mite droppings and remains, pet hairs, diesel particulate matter
Sometimes detectable
steam, oil smoke

HUM monitor lamp (about ambient humidity) [blue]

Indicate room humidity within the range 20%-90%. (1% increments)

When the humidity level is below 20%, "20" is displayed. When the humidity level is above 90%, "90" is displayed.

  • The lamp will light up even when only the Air purifying operation is active.
  • [—] is displayed for about 30 seconds immediately after operation start regardless of the humidity.
  • If there is a power failure, then power is restored and operation is started again, [—] is also displayed for about 30 seconds.

At times the humidity level indicated on the unit may differ from other hygrometers.

- This is because the flow of air causes temperature and humidity to vary throughout the room. Please consider the indications to be a rough estimate of ambient humidity.

When the HUM monitor lamp is blinking Page 35

Odour sensor lamp

Indicates the intensity of odours in 3 colours: blue, orange, red.

- Blue indicates that the air is clean.

Lamp colour Blue Orange Red Odours Low High

If operation is started immediately after the power supply plug is inserted, the lamp will light blue for about the first minute.

If odour intensity levels are unchanging, the sensor may not respond even if there is a strong odour in the air.

■ The following types of odours may not be detected: pet odours that do not include ammonia, garlic odours, etc.

As odour perception varies by person, in some cases an odour may be sensed even when the lamp is blue. If the odour bothers you, select a high airflow rate setting.

Page 16

The basic sensitivity of the odour sensor will be determined by odour levels in about the first minute after the power supply plug is inserted every time. Insert the power supply plug when the air is clean (odour-free).

Odour sensor detection range

Detectable matter
tobacco odours, cooking odours, pet odours, toilet smells, waste smells, mould odour, sprays, alcohol
Sometimes detectable
sudden changes in temperature/humidity, steam, oil smoke, gas emitted from combustion-based heating devices

MODE Usage and Function

Automatic airflow rate adjustment

AUTO FAN

FAN setting (Quiet, Low, Standard, High*) is automatically adjusted according to the degree of air impurity and humidity (when the Humidifying operation is active).

Purifying capacity increases as airflow rate rises.

* The maximum airflow rate during AUTO FAN MODE is "High", which is less powerful than "Turbo".

- Press HUM to select the humidity level.

- Degree of air impurity corresponds to the volume of dust and the intensity of odours in the ambient air.

Saving energy

In Power saving mode within ECONO MODE, the FAN setting automatically switches between Quiet and Low only. Power consumption (*1) and operating sounds are reduced.

If the air is clean and the set humidity level has been achieved (when the Humidifying operation is active), after a short while, Monitoring mode automatically activates.

Recommended for use during sleep hours.

*1 By comparison to AUTO FAN MODE (about 12.6Wh), power consumption in ECONO MODE (about 6.7Wh) is about 5.9Wh lower. Test conditions: operation in 10m² area over 1 hour. Assuming 1 cigarette was smoked immediately after the unit was turned on.

If the air is clean and the set humidity level has been achieved, after a short while...

DAIKIN MCK70YBFVM - Power saving mode - 1

If the humidity level falls, or dust or odours are detected...

Monitoring mode

- The fan starts and stops periodically. Dust, odours, and the humidity level are monitored.

- The following functions are turned off, further reducing power consumption.

Streamer OFF OF Humidifying (*2)

Active plasma ion OFF

*2 The humidifier ON/OFF lamp remains lit up.

- As the FAN setting is limited to Quiet and Low, air purifying and humidifying capacity is reduced.

- As air is not drawn in when the fan has stopped, the dust/PM2.5 sensor, odour sensor, and humidity sensor reduce in sensitivity. To prevent this reduction in sensitivity, turn Monitoring mode OFF.

- FAN setting is adjusted automatically. Airflow cannot be adjusted manually.

- Press HUM to select the humidity level.

Reducing pollen levels

ANTI- POLLEN

A gentle air current is created by switching every 5 minutes between the FAN setting Standard and Low so that pollen can be drawn in and caught before it reaches the floor.

CIRCULATOR

When you want to circulate the air in the room

The air in the room is kept clean and local variations in temperature are suppressed. It is even more effective if the unit is installed opposite an air conditioner.

The airflow rate is "High" for about 30 minutes after operation start, in order to circulate the air in the room.

After that, any temperature change around the unit is detected, and the airflow rate is automatically adjusted.

(There is no temperature adjustment function.)

- If the indoor temperature is low, the airflow rate may not be "High". (To suppress any feelings of coldness caused by air currents)

If you want to perform air purifying operation only, insert the power supply plug into the power socket and operate.

Q: The dust/PM2.5 sensor seems to have poor sensitivity...

A: Perform periodic cleaning of the dust/PM2.5 sensor as dirt on its lens can lead to poor sensitivity. Page 28

In addition, the response time of the dust/PM2.5 sensor depends on room size.

Make adjustments in accordance with the procedure for setting dust/PM2.5 sensor sensitivity.

Page 23

If the FAN setting is set to “Turbo), the responsiveness of the dust/PM2.5 sensor may be poor.

The strong airflow causes dust to be drawn into the air inlet before it can be detected by the dust/PM2.5 sensor. This is normal (not a malfunction).

Q: Can the deodorising filter be cleaned with water? Or should it be replaced?

A: It cannot be cleaned with water.

(If water is used, the part will lose its shape and become unusable.)

If you have inadvertently washed it with water, contact the place of purchase.

Remove from the unit and vacuum off dust with a vacuum cleaner. Also, It is not necessary to replace it.

If odour becomes an issue, leave the part in a shaded, breezy area. (about 1 day) Page 27

Q: Can the dust collection filter be cleaned?

A: No. Do not attempt to clean it with a vacuum cleaner or water.

(Reduced performance of the dust collection filter may result)

Replace it if dirt buildup is severe.

Q: The dust collection filter easily turns black...

A: The blackening does not affect dust collection performance. However, it can be replaced if it is an issue.

Q: No steam is visible during the Humidifying operation...

A: No steam is visible because humidification is carried out by passing air through the humidifying filter and vaporizing, rather than by boiling water.

Q: Air emitted during the Humidifying operation feels cool...

A: Emitted air is a little lower in temperature than the air drawn-in because heat in the air is consumed when the water contained in the humidifying filter is vaporized.

Q: Humidification is in progress but ambient humidity is not rising...

A: It may be difficult to raise the humidity depending on room size and conditions.

Set the humidification mode to “(High)” and increase the FAN setting before use.

Dirt buildup on the humidifying filter can cause reduced performance. Perform periodic cleaning/maintenance. Page 30, 31

Q: Can I use the unit even if the streamer lamp is blinking?

A: For safety, the supply of electricity to the streamer unit will be stopped, resulting in reduced performance.

Clean the streamer unit, then begin using after the streamer lamp stops blinking. Page 32
