Using the Air Purifier

Understanding the Air Quality Light

The color of the air quality light corresponds to the ambient air quality, while its brightness reflects the current running mode.

Installing the Filter

Before installing the filter, ensure the air purifier is unplugged from the electrical outlet.

1. Rotate the base anti-clockwise to remove it from the appliance.
2. Pull the filter out from the appliance.
3. Remove all packaging materials from the new air purification filter.
4. Put the filter back into the appliance.
5. Reattach the base and rotate it clockwise to fasten the base.

Connecting Power

Risk of electric shock! When unplugging the AC power cord, always pull the plug from the socket, never the cord.

Connect the power adapter:

• First, connect it to the power socket on the appliance.
• Then, connect it to the wall outlet.

Turning On and Off

For optimum purification performance, close doors and windows.

1. Press the [power button] on the back of the air purifier to switch it on. The air purifier operates in Auto mode by default.
2. Press the [power button] again to switch off the air purifier.

Changing the Mode Setting

You can choose Auto mode, Turbo mode, or Sleep mode by pressing the [mode switch/filter reset button]. The brightness of the air quality light indicates the current running mode:

• Sleep mode: Lowest brightness.
• Auto mode: Mid-level brightness.
• Turbo mode: Highest brightness.

Auto Mode: The appliance selects the fan speed according to the ambient air quality.

Turbo Mode: The air purifier operates at the highest speed.

Sleep Mode: The air purifier operates quietly at a low speed.

Cleaning

Never use abrasive, aggressive, or flammable cleaning agents such as bleach or alcohol to clean any part of the appliance.

Cleaning Schedule

Cleaning the Body of the Air Purifier

Regularly clean the inside and outside of the air purifier to prevent dust accumulation.

1. Use a soft, dry cloth to clean both the interior and exterior of the air purifier.
2. The air outlet can also be cleaned with a dry, soft cloth.

Cleaning the Air Quality Sensor

Clean the air quality sensor every two months for optimal functioning.

If the air purifier is used in a dusty environment, it may need more frequent cleaning. If room humidity is very high, condensation may form on the sensor, potentially indicating poorer air quality even if it is good. In such cases, clean the sensor or use a manual speed setting.

1. Switch off the air purifier and unplug it from the power socket.
2. Clean the inlet and outlet of the air quality sensor with a soft brush.
3. Open the air quality sensor cover.
4. Clean the air quality sensor and dust inlet/outlet with a slightly damp cotton swab.
5. Dry all parts thoroughly with a dry cotton swab.
6. Reattach the air quality sensor cover.

Cleaning the Surface of the Filter

Wipe the surface of the filter with a soft wet cloth or clean it with a vacuum cleaner.

Using a high-power/industrial vacuum cleaner may damage the filter.

Replacing the Filter

Understanding the Healthy Air Protect Lock

This appliance has a healthy air protect lock to ensure the NanoProtect filter is in optimal condition. When the filter is almost expired, the [filter replacement alert] lights up red. If not replaced promptly, the alert will flash, and the appliance will stop operating and lock.

Replacing the Filter

The filter is not washable or reusable. Always turn off the air purifier and unplug it from the electrical outlet before replacing the filter.
