Frequently Asked Questions - KC-G40EU SHARP

What does the Plasmacluster technology do?

Plasmacluster technology generates positive and negative ions like those found in nature to remove airborne mold, viruses, allergens, and odors. It is patented by Sharp and certified safe.

How do I clean the filters?

The HEPA filter and deodorizing filter should be replaced when the indicator shows. The humidifying filter can be rinsed with water. Refer to the manual for specific intervals.

What do the different sensors detect?

The device has 4 sensors: dust (including PM2.5), temperature, humidity, and light intensity. They automatically adjust operation to maintain optimal air quality.

Can I use the humidifier without the air purifier?

The unit combines both functions. You can select purification-only mode, humidification-only mode, or both simultaneously via the control panel.

How often should I replace the water?

The water tank should be emptied and refilled daily to prevent bacterial growth. The device alerts when the tank is empty.

What is the Ion Shower mode?

Ion Shower is an intensive purification program that releases high-density Plasmacluster ions for rapid cleaning, ideal before sleeping.

Is the device safe for pets and children?

Yes, the Plasmacluster technology has been tested for safety (GLP compliant). The child lock feature prevents accidental operation.

How do I enable the Spot mode?

Spot mode directs a focused airflow through an adjustable horizontal outlet to remove odors from closets or corners. Select it on the control panel.

What is the pollen mode?

Pollen mode uses high-density Plasmacluster ions (HD7000) to combat allergens like pollen. It's designed for allergy sufferers.

How do I clean the exterior?

Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water or abrasive cleaners. Clean the air intake and outlet grilles regularly with a vacuum brush.

Purify Air with the Same Ions As in Nature

Plasmacluster - Only from SHARP

Plasmacluster ions are positive and negative ions that occur in nature.

Plasmacluster is air-purifying technology. Its effectiveness has been supported by test data, and Plasmacluster is thus increasingly finding applications in various areas of activity, such as in businesses, in addition to household use. Plasmacluster provides you with natural and safe air. This unique technology from Sharp applies the power of nature.

SHARP's Original Technology

Plasma discharge generates and emits the same positive and negative ions that occur in nature. Plasmacluster technology is Sharp's original air purifying technology that removes airborne mold and viruses.

Winner of the 2008 Invention Prize

National Invention Awards Ceremony held by the Japan Institute of Invention and Innovation (JIII)

Patented by Sharp (patent number 3680121)

Assured Safety

GLP ^* -compliant test facilities have gathered highly reliable safety data on Sharp's Plasmacluster technology.

* GLP (good laboratory practice) is a system of management controls for test facilities and test procedures designed to ensure the reliability of chemical safety assessment tests. Testing institution: LSI Medience Corporation

Purpose	Test name (abbreviation)	Ion density setting
Skin irritancy (general condition)	Acute skin irritation/ corrosion	Approx. 1,000,000 ions/cm3
Eye irritancy (general condition)	Acute eye irritation/ corrosion	Approx. 13,000,000 ions/cm3
Gene toxicity (general condition)	Inhalation toxicity (evaluation of genetic effect on pulmonary tissue)	Approx. 7,000,000 ions/cm3
Body and organ toxicity (general condition)	Inhalation toxicity	Approx. 7,000,000 ions/cm3
Pregnant woman and fetus toxicity (general condition)	Inhalation toxicity	Approx. 7,000,000 ions/cm3

The Same Safe Ions As in Nature

The safety of Plasmacluster ions has been verified, and so a high density of ions can be used. With more positive and negative ions in a room than even in a forest, Plasmacluster provides an environment of even greater effectiveness.

Numbers of + and ions per 1 cm ^3 when measured near the center of a room (at a height of 1.2 m from the floor) with the product placed at a wall:

+ - ions each 25,000 or more

each of the ions 7,000 or more

Technology and unique solutions

Plasmacluster – certified method of generating heavy ions into the air (elimination of viruses, bacteria, allergens and fungi); a natural air purifying system. The effectiveness of this unique solution developed by Sharp in 2000 has been confirmed with over 90 patents.

British Allergy Foundation (BAF) – Allergy UK works with manufacturers throughout the world to test and promote products and devices that can benefit those suffering from allergies. All products labelled with the BAF logo have been scientifically tested. All product tests and evaluations are carried out by Allergy Research Limited.

Auto Louver – automatic closing of the shutter when the device is turned off to keep the inside of the device clean.

Auto Restart – once power has been restored after power failure, the device continues working in the latest mode.

Child lock – control panel can be locked.

Monitor function – during operation, the sensor detects if it is necessary to address the temperature and humidity in the room, signalling it with the indicator light. The monitoring function detects “low humidity and temperature” and “high humidity and temperature”.

Intelligent Mode – intelligent purification and humidification mode based on information provided by 6 sensors - 7 indications: PM2.5, dust, unpleasant odour, temperature, humidity, light sensor, motion sensor.

Ion Shower – an intensive purifying programme that can be used for preparing the bedroom before going to sleep.

Pollen -anti-allergy mode based on high-density ion beams (Plasmacluster HD7000).

Timer ON/OFF – the device can be programmed to be temporarily switched on or off

Spot mode – a separate horizontal and adjustable air exhaust can be used removing unpleasant odours and bacteria from the closet.
