06. FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) mean?
A: CADR is a measure of the volume of air processed by the purifier. A higher CADR indicates a more powerful air purifier.
Q: What does a pre-filter do?
A: It extends the life of the True HEPA filter by initially filtering out larger particles like mold and pollen.
Q: What does an Ionizer do?
A: Ionizers electrically charge air molecules, helping the purifier trap airborne particles more efficiently.
Q: Will my settings be saved if I turn off my air purifier?
A: Yes, if kept plugged in, the purifier will return to its last settings. If unplugged, it will revert to the default AUTO setting upon restart.
07. Safety / Cautions
Safety Concerns
- Ensure all air openings are not restricted or covered. Do not place anything on top of the unit.
- Never drop or insert any object into any openings.
