F AIR PURIFIER with Humidifying Function

7 Please read before operating your new Air Purifier ——

The air purifier draws in room air from the air intake, passes the air through a Pre-Fil- ter, a Washable Deodorizing Filter and a HEPA Filter inside of the unit, then discharg- es the air through the air outlet. The HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust particles as small as 0.3 microns that pass through the filter and also helps absorb odours. The Washable Deodorizing Filter gradually absorbs odours as they pass through the filter.

Some odours absorbed by the filters may break down over time, resulting in additional odour. Depending on the usage environment, especially when the product is used in extreme environments (significantly more severe than normal household use), this odour may become strong in a shorter period than expected. If the odour persists, the filters should be replaced.

- The air purifier is designed to remove air-suspended dust and odour, but not harmful gases (for example, carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke). If the source of the odour still exists, the air purifier may not completely remove the odour.
