Frequently Asked Questions - UA-HG50E-L SHARP

How to install the filters for the first time?

Remove the plastic bags from the HEPA and deodorizing filters, then insert them into their respective compartments. Make sure the rear panel is properly closed.

How to fill the water tank?

Remove the water tank, open the cap, fill with cold tap water, close the cap tightly, and replace the tank. Do not exceed the maximum capacity.

What does the steady red safety indicator mean?

It indicates a dry and cold environment (risk of virus survival) or a humid and hot environment (risk of heatstroke). Follow the manual's recommendations to adjust humidity or temperature.

How to clean the HEPA filter?

Clean only the surface with a label using a low-power vacuum cleaner. Never wash the HEPA filter or expose it to sunlight.

When should the filters be replaced?

The HEPA and deodorizing filters have a lifespan of approximately 10 years after opening. The humidification filter should also be replaced approximately every 10 years. The lifespan may vary depending on usage conditions.

Why does humidification not activate?

Check that the water tank is properly filled and installed, that the float is not blocked, and that the selected mode allows humidification (for example, Intelligent mode automatically activates humidification if needed).

How to activate Intelligent mode?

Press the 'Intelligent mode' button (marked with an intelligence icon). The white indicator lights up. The appliance automatically adjusts the fan speed based on sensors.

TRAPS DUST

Pre-filter traps dust larger than approx 240 micron particles.

DECREASES ODOURS

Deodorizing filter absorbs harmful gases*1 and many common household odours.

REDUCES TINY DUST. POLLEN & MOLD*2

HEPA filter traps 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.

FRESHENS

By emitting a balance of positive and negative ions, Plasmacluster air treatment is a natural process.

HUMIDIFIES

Controls humidity by sensing temperature and humidity automatically.

1: VOC, NOx, SOx. The deodorizing performance for a single component odours substance in a 1 m^3 test container may be different than the deodorizing performance in actual use.
2: When air is circulated through the filter system.

Sensor Technology continuously monitors air quality and room condition, and automatically adjusts operation.

INTELLIGENT MODE

(UA-HG60E / UA-HG50E)

6 sensors sensing 7 factors precisely control automatic operation.

*3: Senses only when Intelligent mode is in operation.

When a person or pet is in the sensory area\*4

(^*4:Ref.E - 5)

• When there is little movement of a person or pet (example: when sleeping), automatically switches to quiet air flow.
• When the room is dark, the Front Display, Cleanliness Monitor and Air Outlet LED turn off automatically.

When there is no movement in the sensory area

• The Front Display, Cleanliness Monitor and Air Outlet LED turn off, humidifying stops, and the unit switches to minimum airflow to save power consumption.
• When room humidity is over 80% and the room is bright, Plasmacluster lons are emitted with strong airflow.

NOTE

• When in Intelligent mode you can manually switch humidifying ON or OFF (Ref. E-8)
• Front Display and Air Outlet LED automatically switch ON and OFF based on room brightness. (When light control is set to "Auto". Ref. E-11)
• When the Motion Sensor senses that no one has been in the room for a set interval of time it determines that the room is unoccupied.
• You can change brightness of Display / Monitor, sensor sensitivity, and Motion Sensor sensing time. (Ref. E-11, E-12)
• Motion sensor may sense movement other than persons or pets. (waving curtain etc.)

Please read before operating your new Air Purifier

The air purifier draws in room air through the air intake, circulates it through a Pre-Filter, a Deodorizing Filter and a HEPA Filter inside the unit, and then discharges it 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 Deodorizing Filter gradually absorbs odours as they pass through the filter.

Some odours absorbed by the filters will break down over time, causing additional odours. Depending on usage conditions, and especially if the unit is used in environments significantly more severe than a normal household, these odours may become noticeable sooner than expected. If these odours persist, replace the filters. (Ref. E-15)

When minerals in tap water adhere to the filters and become a hard and white, they absorb odours in the room that can cause the emission of an unpleasant odour when the humidifying filter is dry. (Varies depending on water quality and other environmental factors) If this occurs, perform humidifying filter maintenance. (Ref. E-14)

NOTE

• The air purifier is designed to remove air-suspended dust and the odours.
  The air purifier is not designed to remove harmful gases such as carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke.
  The air purifier may not completely remove an odour if the source of the odour is still present.

PATROLLING FUNCTION

The sensor detects a state requiring attention to room temperature and humidity during operation and tells it with Patrolling Light. Both "Dry and Low temperature patrolling" and "High temperature and High humidity patrolling" work. (This function informs a room condition. The unit cannot adjust temperature or lower humidity)

It tells that the room is dry or the room temperature is low.

When Patrolling Light turns to red, the unit operates with airflow a little stronger during Intelligent mode (Auto mode).

Patrolling Light (●)	If the beeping sound is set to "ON". (Ref. E-12)		Indoor environment	Temperature and humidity area (Figure below)
	Humidity / Temperature Monitor (for 30 seconds)	Beeping sound
Red	"%" Light turns on	Beep (once)	Dry	(3)
	"°C" Light flashing	Beep (once)	Low temperature
Green	(Normal)	None	Not dry or low temperature	(1)-(2)

When the room is dry and the room temperature is low, viruses survive more easily. We recommend that you increase humidity with humidification setting and temperature using heating appliances according to your room environment.

1 The absolute humidity is the total mass of water vapor present in 1 m^3 of air regardless of temperature and is expressed in g. While humidity generally used for a weather forecast is called relative humidity, which is the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapor to the equilibrium vapor pressure of water at a given temperature and is expressed in %. Therefore, the absolute humidity is approximately 8 g at 15^ C and 18 g at 30^ C even at the same relative humidity of 60% .
2 Survival rate of viruses emitted in air after 6 hours under each environment.

NOTE

• It does not notify of the existence of viruses themselves.
• Patrolling Light's illuminating "Green" does not assure prevention of infection. Use it as a reference to make an environment to prevent infection during typical daily life.

While adjusting humidity to approximately 55% to 65% during operation in Intelligent mode (Auto mode), the unit controls humidification, but does not make changes according to the virus' environment.

SELECTING DISPLAY

PLASMACLUSTER ION ON/OFF

When the Plasmacluster function is ON, the Plasmacluster Ion light on the Front Display is on. (Ref.E-6)

(with the unit ON)

The beeping sound of Patrolling Function is set to "Off" at the default. You can change it to "On" or "Cancel Patrolling Function". (Ref. E-11, E-12)

It tells high temperature and high humidity. When Patrolling Light turns to orange or red, the unit stops humidification automatically. (However, it is in MAX/MED/LOW mode, it does not stop humidification)

Patrolling Light (●)	If the beeping sound is set to "ON". (Ref. E-12)		Indoor environment	Temperature and humidity area (Figure below)
