FU-S63E

Please read before operating your new Air Purifier

The air purifier draws in room air from its air intake, lets the air pass through a Active Carbon Filter (deodorization filter) and a HEPA Filter (dust collection filter) inside of the unit, then discharges the air from its air outlet. The air purifier unit repeats this process by moving its internal fan.

As air passes through, a new HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust particles, of as small as 0.3 microns. The Active Carbon Filter gradually absorbs odour elements as they repeatedly pass through the filter. (Odour elements are absorbed by HEPA Filter as well.)

Some odour ingredients absorbed by the filters may become separated and may be discharged through the air outlet and result in additional odour. Depending on the usage environment, especially when the product is used in a condition significantly more severe than household use, this odour may become strong in a shorter period than expected.

If the odour persists, then the filters are fully expended and it is necessary to purchase the optional replacement filter.

NOTE

• 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 odour sources still exist, it cannot completely remove the odour. (for example, odours from construction materials and pet odours).
  It is suggested to open the window a bit when you are smoking in order to facilitate ventilation.

FEATURES

ION SHOWER

New ION SHOWER Operation Mode releases the concentrated Plasmacluster ions, and effectively removes the pollen and mold, and also controls the activity of airborne virus, mold, and allergen.

Plasmacluster Ion Control

Your new air purifier will control the ratio of negative ions and positive ions depending on the condition of the room.

Clean Mode

Approximately the same numbers of positive and negative ions are discharged.

- AUTO Plasmacluster Ion Mode

The unit detects the dust, mold or airborne microbes using its sensors, and controls the generating amount of positive and negative ions automatically.

When room air is impure, approximately same numbers of positive and negative ions will be released.

When room air is clean, negative ions will be released in an increased rate and controls the ion balance.

- Filters

1) Washable Active Carbon Filter

Absorbs odour elements.

Washable to maintain optimum deodorization performance.

2) HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) Filter with Microbial control.

High-efficiency particle collection including pollen and dust.

- Mist Operation Mode

New Ion Mist coats each ion with a water mist that helps to further reduce odours both in the air and tactile surfaces.

MAIN UNIT INDICATOR

MIST Unit INDICATOR LIGHT

Clean the MIST Filter when the MIST Filter Indicator Light activates. (The indicator light will be activated in about 1 month, when using the unit with mist operation 24 hours day, every day.) (See Page E-14)

The ION SHOWER Operation is working when the ION SHOWER Indicator Light activates.

PLASMACLUSTER INDICATOR LIGHT

Plasmacluster ion operation is selected using the remote control.

Blue light

When the Plasmacluster ion operation is in Clean Mode, or in AUTO Mode and the air in the room is impure, the Plasmacluster Ions will be released continuously.

Green light

When the Plasmacluster ion operation is in the AUTO Mode and the air in the room is clean, this light will be activated and the unit will release the negative ions in the increased rate and controls the ion balance.

Cycles of blue and green.

When the Plasmacluster ion operation is in the ION SHOWER Mode, Plasmacluster indicator Light will repeat its colour cycles between blue and green.

Light off

There are no Plasmacluster ions being generated.

• The light can be turned off by using the 'Lights ON/OFF Button' on the Remote Control. In this case, Plasmacluster ions are generated. (Please turn off the light when not required.) (See Page E-11)

CLEAN-SIGN LIGHT

The colour changes according to the air condition.

ABOUT THE CLEAN-SIGN

• The condition of the CLEAN-SIGN depends on the room air condition detected by the Dust and Odour Sensors when the plug is inserted into the wall outlet.
• It is possible to have a green CLEAN-SIGN with impurities in the air at the time that the air purifier was just introduced to the room environment. After a while, however, the base impurity rate will be adjusted to detect room air condition correctly.
• Use the Lights ON/OFF Button on the remote control to turn off the Indicator lights.

DETERMINING THE BASE IMPURITY RATE

For the first 30 seconds after the power plug is inserted into the wall outlet, the unit will check the conditions of the air. If operation is set to ON during this time, the CLEAN-SIGN LIGHT will alternately flash in green, orange and red.

MIST Operation Indicator Light

Operating this product with water in its MIST Tray will prompt the MIST Operation Indicator Light (green) to turn on, and vaporized mist will come out automatically. To stop the vaporized mist from being released, discard water from the tank and MIST Tray.
- The MIST Operation Indicator Light will blink for 5 minutes when the tank water is gone, and eventually it will turn off.
- The MIST Operation Indicator Light may not correctly display if the main unit is not sitting up straight.

When the sensors detect polluted air, air flow is increased to release more vaporized mist and raise its air-purifying function; a healthy environment with the appropriate humidity will be achieved.

• The amount of released vaporized mist also changes, depending on humidity and temperature-related conditions.

The light changes according to the Tank condition.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

To maintain optimum performance of this air purifier, please clean the unit including the sensor and filters periodically.

When cleaning the unit, be sure to unplug the power cord, and never handle the plug with wet hands. Electrical shock and/or bodily injury may occur as a result.
