• The air purier is not a substitute for medical treatment required when facing pre-existing allergic conditions. If you are not sure, always consult your doctor.

• By the use of the special lter system, the air purier removes harmful spores causing the formation of mold from the ambient air. Thus, both the risk of mold spread- ing and health-related issues is reduced. NOTE: In case mold is already present in the room, it cannot be removed anymore just using the air purier.

• Unpleasant odors are removed. Location A skid-proof, even surface is suitable as installation location. The appliance operates more effectively, if you keep the windows and doors closed during operation. NOTE: Do not forget to air on a regular basis. Filter Element Your appliance features a 4-lter system, consisting of the following lter stages:

• Pre-lter, retains coarse particles
