- Power Off: Unplug the Instant AP 100 Air Purifier from the power outlet.
- Access Filter Compartment: Refer to your air purifier's user manual for specific instructions on how to open the filter compartment. This typically involves removing a cover or panel.
- Remove Old Filter: Carefully remove the used filter from the compartment. Dispose of the old filter according to local regulations.
- Insert New Filter: Place the new Instant AP 100 HEPA Replacement Filter into the compartment, ensuring it is seated correctly. Follow any directional arrows on the filter or in your air purifier's manual.
- Close Compartment: Securely close the filter compartment cover or panel.

- Reset Filter Indicator (if applicable): If your air purifier has a filter reset function, follow the instructions in your air purifier's manual to reset the filter change indicator.
Operating Considerations
Once the new filter is installed, your Instant AP 100 Air Purifier is ready for operation. The filter works continuously to clean the air as the unit runs.
- Ensure the air purifier is placed in an open area, away from obstructions, to allow for optimal airflow.
- The effectiveness of the filter is directly related to the air purifier's operational settings (e.g., fan speed, mode).
- Regular use of the air purifier with this filter will contribute to a reduction in airborne particles and odors.
Maintenance
Proper maintenance of your replacement filter ensures continued optimal performance of your Instant AP 100 Air Purifier.
- Filter Replacement Frequency: The filter typically lasts at least 8 months under continuous eco mode operation. Actual lifespan may vary based on air quality and usage.
- Filter Change Indicator: Pay attention to the filter change indicator on your Instant Air Purifier. This indicator provides the most accurate timing for replacement based on actual usage.
- Do Not Wash: The HEPA and activated carbon filters are not washable and should not be cleaned with water or other liquids. Attempting to wash the filter will damage its structure and effectiveness.
- Regular Inspection: Periodically inspect the filter for visible signs of heavy dust accumulation. While the indicator is primary, visual inspection can provide additional insight.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues related to your filter or air purifier performance, consider the following:
- Reduced Airflow or Purification: If you notice a decrease in airflow or the air quality does not seem to improve, the filter may be clogged and require replacement, even if the indicator has not yet activated.
- Persistent Odors: If odors persist despite air purifier operation, the activated carbon layer of the filter may be saturated. Replace the filter.
- Filter Indicator Light Remains On After Replacement: Ensure you have correctly reset the filter indicator on your air purifier after installing a new filter. Refer to your air purifier's manual for specific reset instructions.
- Unusual Noises: Ensure the filter is properly seated in its compartment. A loose filter can cause rattling or other unusual sounds.
