HOW TO USE YOUR AIR PURIFIER

Turn on the unit

If the unit is unplugged, plug the power cord into an electrical outlet.
If the unit is plugged in but turned off, press the Power button to turn on the display.

Turn off the unit

To stop the unit from operating, press the Power button until the display turns off.

Automatic operation

Your air purifier is designed to monitor air quality and automatically adjust the fan to increase filtration when the level of particles in the air increases, and automatically transitions to Eco Mode for energy savings when the air quality is good for 30 minutes. There are 3 levels of automatic operation:

Auto Mode

Automatically adjusts fan speed based on the air quality

Eco Mode

Your air purifier uses up to 50% less energy when in Eco mode.

During Auto operation, the unit automatically starts Eco mode when the air quality is good for 30 minutes.
Automatically cycles the unit off and on every 10 minutes and checks the air quality when the fan is on.

Night Mode

Automatically detects room light:

When dark, turns display and plasma ion operation off, and sets fan to level 1 to reduce sound
When light, the light returns to Auto Mode

During Night mode, touch the LIGHT button to turn on the display

Fan speed

You can override Automatic operation and set the fan speed manually.

Touch the Fan button to cycle through Low, Medium, and High speeds.
To return to Automatic operation, touch the Auto button.

Light level

There are four levels of light brightness: 0%, 20%, 60%, and 100%.

The light levels are preset at these levels:

You change the current light level manually.

Press the Light button to cycle through the brightness levels: 0%, 20%, 60%, and 100%.

The next time the unit switches to either Day or Night, the light level will change back to the pre-set level.

You can customize the preset for Day or Night light levels.

First, set the light level manually. Then press and hold the Light button for 3 seconds to save the current setting as the Day or Night light level.

Air quality

As it constantly monitors the air in the room, your air purifier shows your air quality in two ways:

Air quality indicator

On the Control Panel, it displays either Air Quality Percentage (or %) or Particulate Matter (PM2.5) measurement.

Air quality light

Colored light (under the control panel) to give you an at-a-glance reading of your air quality.

Plasma ion

Your air purifier uses plasma ion technology to project positive and negative ions into the air.

To turn off the plasma ion feature, touch the ION button.
To turn on the plasma ion feature if it’s been turned off, touch the ION button.

Replace the filter indicator

When it’s time to replace the filter, the unit will light the Filter button on the control panel. The expected life of the filter is 6 to 8 months when operating continuously in Auto mode, depending on the quality of the air in your home.

After you’ve replaced the filter, touch and hold the Filter button for 3 seconds to reset.
