3 Auto Self Clean Wind Iron Auto Self Clean The Tub Stain Fighter Mechanisms that remove dirt effectively Hitachi s original Wind Iron technology smoothens out wrinkles after washing and drying, so that you can wear clothes directly out of the drum and save time on ironing. The big drum allows XXXclothes to move freely when drying to prevent wrinkling, while the high-speed airflow of about 300km/h *6 generated by the Jet Fan Motor stretches out the remaining wrinkles. Steam Iron With daily usage, dirt such as sebum, detergent residue, bacteria, germs and black mould spores gradually accumulate in the tub. Left uncleaned, the dirt build-up will eventually stain the tub. This will consequently, affect clothing quality and cleanliness. With Hitachi s Auto Self Clean, 99% of germs *1 will be removed and mould growth prevented *2 with every wash. When doing laundry, switch the Auto Self Clean setting ON *3 and it automatically washes away dirt from the outside of the stainless steel tub, as well as the inside of the outer tub.

New spin hole layout Spin Hole layout of the drum realigned to allow water to flow out and shower the outer tub effectively. 16 Shower Nozzles release clean water through High Speed Spinning to wash the back of the front cover of the outer tub and the front portion of the stainless steel tub. Strong water flow collected from the bottom of the outer tub then washes outside of the stainless steel tub and inside of the outer tub. In addition, New Spin Hole layout on the drum allows water from drum s inside to flow into the outer tub. Futhermore, a light and gentle finishing is provided to the clothes, preventing change in form or shrinkage from heat, through low heat drying with temperature of clothes at about 60 C and below *7. 1.0kg Wash and wear every day without hassle of ironing Blouse Cotton 55% Polyester 45% Casual shirt 3.5kg Load a family of 4 s entire day laundry easily and wear straight after washing Blouse Cotton 55% Polyester 45% Casual shirt 6.0kg Wash bigger loads such as bedsheets all at once. Wrinkling is reduced even without operating this function Blouse Cotton 55% Polyester 45% Casual shirt The washing machine also comes equipped with the convenient Steam Iron feature that carries the dual-function of reducing wrinkles and odour at the same time. The Steam Iron can smooth out up to 1kg of dry clothes that have been worn, hung or kept for a long period in one load. Used together with the Wind Iron, visibility of wrinkles will be reduced. Operating on warm Steam Spray temperature with added deodorizing effect, you can now wear your clothes straight from the washer. Approximately 300km/h High-speed Wind Dirt-resistant drain hose Remove germs *1 and prevent mould growth *2 with every wash These places get dirty easily *4 The newly-designed drain hose comes with a smooth, unpleated inner surface and is further treated with antibacterial agent *5. Unlike conventional hoses, dirt will find it difficult to remain in the hose. Combined with high-speed wind generated by the Wind Iron, water is swiftly discarded separately through the new drain hose. T-Shirt T-Shirt T-Shirt Dirt inside the drain hose Back of the front cover of the outer tub Front part of the stainless steel tub Tub will accumulate black mould over time, if not cleaned Inside of the outer tub During washing, dirt gradually accumulates in the tub. After washing, dirt becomes attached to the tub, becoming harder to remove. Conventional hose Flat inner wall hose Hidden dirt inside the hose* *The dirt conditions vary according to usage patterns using a Hitachi washer-dryer (Hitachi research data) Due to the pleat-shaped drain hose, water and dirt gets trapped easily. Water and dirt are less likely to remain inside the hose.

4 3D Sensor Control Wash Other Features Detergent water prepared by dissolving detergent at the 2-way circulation pump is sprayed from the top of the wide drum with a jet flow. This new pump circulation enables a large amount of detergent water to be sprayed evenly across the tub, ensuring that laundry is thoroughly cleaned. To maximise the beat washing effect, the drum rotation speed and amount of water used are automatically adjusted based on the type and laundry load size detected by the sensors. When the [POWER SAVE] or [POWER SAVE STATIC DRY] program is selected, heat generated by the Jet Fan Motor is reused to power the high speed airflow while simultaneously used as hot air in the dryer. This process is known as. During, heat generated from the main motor is transferred into the drum to raise temperature. Electricity usage is reduced. Eco Vent Big Drum Designed with a massive drum depth of approximately 39cm that can easily fit up to approximately 75-litre capacity of laundry, all your clothes can be washed at once to save time and electricity consumption.

Recycled heat from Eco Vent Air warmed by the main motor and heater enters the Eco Vent (open-close type inlet), which is set along the drying pipeline. The warm air is then used for drying. Recycled from the Jet Fan In addition to heat from the heater, compressed heat from the Jet Fan which generates high-speed airflow, and heat from the Jet Fan Motor are used as hot air during drying. 10.5kg Wash Capacity 7.0kg Dry Capacity Direct Drive Inverter Auto Self Clean Wind Iron BD-S5500 3D Sensor Control Wash Big Drum Laundry will not drop Improved beat washing effect 5 6

5 Wind Iron Big Drum Washing Wind Iron - So gentle on the clothes, you can put them on immediately straight from the tub Save time and effort with the iron. Prevent shrinkage through low temperature drying Clothes are dried as they circulate in the wide Big Drum. The jet fan motor can produce high speed wind of about 300km/h* 1 and straighten out any wrinkle. Furthermore, a light and gentle finishing is provided to the clothes, preventing change in form or shrinkage from heat, through low heat drying with temperature of clothes at about 60 C and below* 2. So clean even without the Iron! (With a Wash-Dry load of 3kg) Saves energy with Hitachi s proprietary technology re-uses heat during operation The amount of energy consumed is reduced by collecting the heat produced during operation and re-using it for the warm air needed in the drying process. 1 Recycle heat from main motor 2 Recycle heat from air through Eco Vent 3 Recycle heat from Jet Fan Washing Power Achieves distinctive whiteness with Sensor Big Drum Washing Sensor Big Drum Washing Clothes are lifted up to the top of the large 61cm diameter drum and then dropped to provide a powerful beat washing effect so as to thoroughly remove dirt off the clothes. Cross cut tub with Diamond-shaped structural surface Drum Diameter Approximately 61cm Capacity Approximately 82L Saves water for both washing and drying As the water circulates by 2-way Circulation Pump, washing can be done with little water. Rotation Spray Rinse During the first rinse, the drum rotates as the clothes become wet with water. Detergent is removed effectively with little water. (The second rinse is the deep rinsing process.) * Illustration 2-way Dehumidification Depending on the course, the type of dehumidifying process is chosen automatically from the 2 available options namely, Air Cooling Dehumidification (without water) and Water Cooling Dehumidification. *Humidity and water are drained away from the water drainage hose. As moist air does not usually leave the room, this helps to maintain fresh air and avoids dew condensation as well as an increase in room temperature. 2-way Circulation Pump Convenient Features Controls through 3 sensors Fabric type and wash load are detected, with drum rotation speed controlled to maximise the beat washing effect. The amount of water is also adjusted accordingly.
