NOTE

• The lifetime of a Filter depends on the level of pollutants in the air. The more dust present in the environment, the more dust accumulates in the filters, shortening their life.
• If the filters are heavily soiled or have a bad odour, or if the fan strength is significantly weakened, replace filters even if the Change Filter indicator has not yet turned on.
