• Ventilate the rooms for at least 10 min. every day, in summer and winter
• Maintain your ventilation system
• Limit the use of household products
  • Do not smoke indoors
• Avoid home fragrances, incense sticks, scented candles, etc.
• Ventilate whenever any work is being conducted in your home and for several weeks afterwards
• Avoid green plants that are allergenic or need frequent watering

WHERE TO INSTALL THE APPLIANCE

Place the purifier on a flat, stable surface in the room requiring treatment.

To allow the air to circulate freely, avoid placing the appliance behind curtains, below a window, item of furniture or shelf unit, or close to any other obstacle, and leave at least 50 cm of free space on each side of the appliance.

BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

Make sure that the plastic packaging protecting the filters has been removed before using the appliance.

Also make sure that:

• The voltage of your electrical installation corresponds to the one indicated on the appliance.

Your appliance can be used with a power plug without an earth connection. It is a class II appliance (double electrical insulation),

• The appliance is positioned in the house as described above,

• The air inlet and outlet grids are completely unobstructed,

- Ensure the 4 filters and front panel have been correctly installed (See section "Disassembling/Reassembling filters").

This appliance is fitted with a device that automatically prevents it from operating if the front door is not correctly assembled.

Inserting and replacing the filters

This appliance is equipped with 4 types of filters:

Four identical black-and-white grid panels arranged in a 2x2 grid, enclosed in a rounded rectangular frame with two handles (no text or symbols)

Pre-filter Active carbon filter NanoCaptur

NB: For optimum performance of the appliance, only use filters provided by TEFAL.

To replace the filters, follow the instructions in the section "Disassembling/Reassembling filters".

Please note: certain filters may emit a temporary slight odour, due to the transport and storage conditions.

SWITCHING THE APPLIANCE ON

Connect the power cord and press the start button (9).

Your appliance will be preset to automatic mode the first time you turn it on.

Thanks to its infrared particles sensor and its gas sensor (model PU6025 only), it detects the level of pollution in the room and automatically adjusts the filtration speed accordingly.

A light changes color to indicate the quality of air in the room.

Air quality Color of light		Filtration speed (in auto mode)
Excellent Blue
Average Purple
Poor Red

EN

Setting the pollution sensors

The appliance is preset to medium sensitivity.

If the air quality indicator remains:

• poor after 2 hours in operation although the air seems to be purified
• excellent for more than 1 hour although the air seems to be polluted

you can adjust the sensor sensitivity as follows:

1. When the air purifier is off, hold down the filtration speed setting button for 2 seconds:
2. Set the sensitivity by briefly pressing the filtration speed setting button:

+ Blue + Purple + Red
Low sensitivity Medium sensitivity High sensitivity

• Select high sensitivity if the air purifier indicates excellent air quality for more than 1 hour although the air seems to be polluted.
• Select low sensitivity if the air purifier continues to indicate poor air quality even though it has been operating for more than 2 hours and the air seems sufficiently purified.
• The new setting is applied if no button is pressed for 10 seconds.

OPERATION

Start

Briefly press this button to switch the air purifier on or off.

Mode/filtration speed selection

auto Automatic: In this operating mode, the filtration speed automatically adjusts according to the air quality detected by the particles sensor and the gas sensor (model PU6025 only). This mode is recommended for general use.

Night: The filtration speed of your appliance is adjusted for a whisper quiet air flow during the night. The light intensity of the appliance is also reduced. If pollution is detected, the filtration speed increases slightly to purify your air but remains quiet to avoid disturbing your sleep.

Manual: In this operating mode, you can manually select 1 of the 4 filtration speeds.

Light

You can change the light intensity of the appliance as you wish or according to the time of day.

Press Ambient light Air quality indicator Control panel
1 Light up Light up Light up
2 Moderate light Moderate light Moderate light
3 Off Moderate light Moderate light
4 Off Off Moderate light

Ionizer function

The ionizer function releases negative ions into the air. This function is switched off by default. To activate it, briefly press button 12.

Timer / delayed start

If the appliance is on: you can use this button to define the operating duration. Briefly press the button to select the number of operating hours desired (1, 2, 4 or 8) and the appliance will automatically turn off at the end of the selected period.

If the appliance is off: briefly press the button to set the appliance to turn on in a certain number of hours (1, 2, 4 or 8).

3D pure air function (adjustable grid)

Filters

Filter	Action	Cycles
Pre-filter	Clean	Every 2 to 4 weeks
Active carbon filter	Replace	Every 12 months
HEPA filter	Replace	Every 3 years
NanoCaptur filter	Replace	Color changing(see Color chart on filter)

This data is based on an average use of 8 hours per day at speed 2.

The recommended frequency for cleaning and replacing the filters may vary depending on the duration of use and the operating environment.

- A ""HEPA"" light indicates when the HEPA filter needs to be replaced. The 'Odor' light display indicates when the carbon filter needs replacing.

- The NanoCaptur filter contains translucent granules which change color according to the formaldehyde absorption rate. Refer to the color chart on the inside of the panel or the filter itself to establish the filter saturation rate.Once the saturation rate has reached its maximum, the filter must be replaced. You have to check the filter saturation rate every six months.

- The pre-filter can be re-used: remove the dust using a vacuum cleaner or wash with water.

CAUTION:

The appliance's efficiency can be reduced if the pre-filter is not cleaned regularly.

Never use a pre-filter that is still damp.

The pre-filter is the only filter which can be re-used and washed with water. The HEPA, NanoCaptur and active carbon filters cannot be cleaned and re-used. Never wash with water.

To replace the filters, follow the instructions in the section "Disassembling/Reassembling filters".

Your replacement filters are available under the following codes:

Filter Code PU4025 Code PU6025
HEPA filter XD6070 XD6071
Active carbon filter XD6060 XD6061
NanoCaptur filter XD6080 XD6081

IMPORTANT: Resetting the filters

The reset light flashes when a filter needs to be replaced. Once the filter has been replaced, hold down the reset button for 2 seconds.

Forced reset:

If you have replaced a filter before its end of life, force the reset of the filter replacement cycle:

1. Hold the reset button for 2 seconds.
2. Press the reset button briefly to select the filter you have changed.
3. After selecting the filter to reset, hold the reset button for 2 seconds. The electronic meter is then reset.
4. If no button is activated for 10 seconds in forced reset mode, the reset mode is canceled.

• Avoid handling used filters if you suffer from allergies or asthma.
• Wear gloves when changing the filters, or wash your hands well afterwards.
• Put used filters directly into a closed, air-tight bag before throwing them away to avoid spreading pollutants.

1. Clean the air inlet and outlet using a soft brush or cloth.
2. Open the sensor cover located on the right-hand side of the appliance.
3. Lightly wet a cotton swab and remove any dust from the lens and the inlet/outlet. Wipe using a dry cotton swab.
4. Clean the gas sensor using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
