ABOUT THE FILTER

The air purifier uses a 3-stage filtration system to purify the air.

A. Washable Pre-Filter

Captures large particles such as dust, lint, fibers, hair, and pet fur.
Maximizes the filter’s life by protecting it.
Removable and washable to increase filtering efficiency (see Cleaning the Pre-Filter, page 18).

B. H13 True HEPA Filter

HEPASmart™ Technology uses statically charged fibers to capture viruses and bacteria with greater efficiency.
Traps at least 99.97% of airborne particles 0.3 microns in size.
Filters small particles such as fine dust, smoke particles, and allergens such as pollen and pet dander.

C. High-Efficiency Activated Carbon Filter

Physically adsorbs smoke, odors, and fumes.
Filters compounds such as formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

COVID-19 Disclaimer

According to the CDC, portable HEPA filtration units that combine a HEPA filter with a powered fan system are effective at cleaning air within spaces to reduce the concentration of airborne particulates, including SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) viral particles.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Smart Air Purifier

Unplug before cleaning.
Wipe the outside of the air purifier with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, wipe the housing with a damp cloth, then immediately dry.
Vacuum the inside of the air purifier.
Do not clean with abrasive chemicals or flammable cleaning agents.

Check Filter Indicator

will light up as a reminder to check the filter. Depending on how often you use the air purifier, the indicator should turn on after about 9 months. You may not need to change your filter yet, but you should check it whenlights up.

When your air purifier is set up with the VeSync app, you can also check the app to see the remaining filter life. You will also receive a notification from VeSync when it’s time to check your filter.

Note: The VeSync app uses a scientific algorithm to determine your filter life based on air quality, amount of use, and other factors. The filter life percentage is based on 12 hours of daily use.

Cleaning the Pre-Filter

The Washable Pre-Filter should be cleaned every 2–4 weeks to increase efficiency and extend the life of your filter. You can set a reminder in the VeSync app to clean the pre-filter every 2, 3, or 4 weeks. Clean the pre-filter using a soft brush or vacuum hose to remove hair, dust, and large particles. Optionally, you can wash the pre-filter with water and a mild detergent to remove dirt and dust.

Note: Avoid scrubbing, scraping, or vigorously brushing the pre-filter. Do not use abrasive cleaning materials.

To wash the pre-filter:

Turn off the air purifier.
Open the front cover
Push the pre-filter’s tabs inward and pull to remove the pre-filter.
Clean the surface of the pre-filter with a vacuum. [Figure 2.1]
Rinse the pre-filter with water under a faucet.
Wash the pre-filter with mild detergent and a soft cloth. [Figure 2.2]
Allow the pre-filter to air-dry. Once completely dry, place the pre-filter back into the air purifier. [Figure 2.3]

Filter	When to Clean	How to Clean	When to Replace
Washable Pre-Filter	Every 2–4 weeks	Use a soft cloth or vacuum hose	Does not need to be replaced
		Wash with water and mild detergent
True HEPA / Activated Carbon Filter	Do not clean		9–12 months

Cleaning the Dust Sensor

It is recommended to clean the AirSight™ Infrared Dust Sensor lens every 2 months to help maintain the efficiency of the sensor. If the Air Quality Indicator is red (indicating “Bad” air quality) more than usual, you may need to clean your dust sensor.

Note: How often you clean the dust sensor will depend on the air quality of your environment. If your air is often polluted with dust, dander, smoke, and other particles, you may need to clean your dust sensor more often.

Unplug the air purifier.
Open the dust sensor cover. [Figure 3.1]
Use a cotton swab dipped in water to clean the dust sensor lens. [Figure 3.2]
Wipe the lens dry with a dry cotton swab.
Replace the dust sensor cover.

Note: Do not remove the foam piece attached to the dust sensor cover unless instructed by Customer Support. [Figure 3.3]

Storage

If not using the air purifier for an extended period of time, wrap both the air purifier and the filter in plastic packaging and store in a dry place to avoid moisture damage.
