7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues after replacing the filters, consider the following:

• Air Purifier Not Turning On: Ensure the unit is properly plugged in and the filter access panel is securely closed. Some air purifiers have safety switches that prevent operation if the cover is not fully latched.
• Unusual Odor: A slight odor may be present with new carbon filters initially. This should dissipate within a few hours of operation. If a strong or persistent odor occurs, re-check filter installation.
• Reduced Airflow: Verify that all filters are installed correctly and are not obstructed. Ensure the air intake and outlet vents of the air purifier are clear.
• Filter Indicator Light Remains On: Refer to your air purifier's original manual for instructions on how to reset the filter replacement indicator after installing new filters. This is often a manual process.
