Step 2: Permanent, washable ECO filter ② captures visible and microscopic airborne particles as small as 0.3 microns. ^1
Step 3: Electronic ionizer boosts the cleaning power.
Step 4: Odour & VOC filter traps odours and VOCs, including Formaldehyde.

Initial set-up
Select a firm, level, and flat location. For best airflow, locate the unit at least 1 meter away from any wall or furniture.
When operating, large volumes of air are drawn toward the air purifier. Surrounding areas should be cleaned and/or vacuumed frequently to prevent build-up of dust and other contaminants. This may also help to prolong the life of the filter. If the unit is placed on a light colored carpet, a small mat or rug should be used underneath to prevent permanent staining. This is especially important in homes with contamination from smoking or fireplaces.
Ensure the front of the unit faces away from the closest wall or furniture.
Ensure no grilles are blocked.
Ensure the air purifier is unplugged from the power outlet before setting up the filters.
ECO filter set-up
The ECO filter has been installed in the air purifier. No further set-up is needed for the ECO filter before first operation.

The cleaning intervals are intended as guidelines only. Performance of any filter media is dependent upon the concentration of contaminants going through the system. High concentrations of contaminants such as dust, pel dander and smoke particles will reduce the useful performance of the filter and they may need to be cleaned or replaced more frequently.
It is recommended that you periodically check the filters.
Air quality indicator
The air quality indicator represents the air quality in the room detected by the sensors. The blue color indicates that the air quality in the room has a lower level of contaminants, the red color indicates it has a higher level of contaminants. When the unit is first turned on, the amber color indicates an increased level of contaminants, and the red color indicates a higher level of contaminants, and the air quality indicator will run between blue, amber and red for 30 seconds and stop at the respective color based on the air quality detected by the sensors.

Troubleshooting
| Problem Solution | |
| My unit will not turn on. Please ensure the unit is plugged into a working outlet. | |
| My air purifier is starting to make noise and the air output is lower. | The filters may be dirty. High amounts of contaminants can block the pores in the filters and stop the air from moving through them. The filters should be cleaned/ replaced. |
| The electronic filter indicator light has not illuminated but the filter is dirty when checked. | The indicator runs on a timer. When the air has more particles than average, the filter may capture airborne particles faster than indicated on the display. The indicator is used as a guideline and can vary with individual environmental conditions. Clean or replace the filter as needed and reset the electronic filter indicator based on the instructions on page 7. |
| The air quality indicator is not changing even when the air becomes cleaner. | The particle sensor may be dirty. Please clean the sensor based on the instructions on page 12. |
| The electronic filter indicator alert is still illuminated after cleaning and replacing the filter. | The electronic filter indicator alert may not have been reset. Please hold the reset button for 2 seconds until the alert light flashes twice and shuts off. |
| The air quality seems to have no improvement after the air purifier has been in use. | For best results, the purifier should operate 24 hours a day when possible. This unit will be more effective when doors and windows are closed. |
| The odour & VOC filter is very dirty. The odour & VOC filter is not washable. It should be replaced every 6 months. | |
| What are VOCs? Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are emitted from various solids and liquids such as paints, cleaning supplies, building materials, and permanent markers. Some of these compounds can have adverse short and long term effects and consistently have higher concentrations indoors than outside. (Source: http://www.epa.gov/laq/voc.html) | |
