Cleaning &
Maintenance

The Change Filter Icon

It is recommended to change the air filters about
every 6 months—this is based on the average
daily use as well as the average air quality in
the U.S. The “Change Filter” icon will turn on to
remind you to check the air filters; this icon will
turn on sooner or later based on how often you
use your air purifier.

If the “Change Filter” icon has turned on, please
remember to reset the air purifier after checking
the filters by pressing the black reset button
inside the vent on the side of the air purifier (See

Resetting the Air Filter Lifetime).

NOTE:

• When the “Change Filter” icon turns on, it
does not necessarily mean that you must
change your filters. However, it is important
to watch out for the following signs of expired
filters:

• Increased operating noise

• Decreased airflow

• Clogged filters

• Increased presence of odors

• The environment in which the air purifier is
being used may also extend or shorten the
lifetime of the air filters. Using your air purifier
in an environment of relatively high pollution
may mean you will need to change the air
filters more often.

• If the air pollution in your environment is very
high, there is a possibility that the filters may
not be completely eective and may need to
be replaced before the “Change Filter” icon
lights up.

• Please remember to reset the air purifier after
changing the air filters.

Replacing the Air Filters

If your air filters can no longer filter fresh air, they
must be changed to ensure the lifetime of your
air purifier. Follow the steps below to properly
install new air filters in your unit. You can also

1. Power o and unplug the device. Remove the

3. Carefully remove the new filters from their

Carbon filter (black) into air purifier. Always
use caution when handling the Activated

place the HEPA filter (white) into the unit. Make
sure the pull tabs on both filters are facing the
opening.
