heat sources.
Never use your Air Purifier to remove toxic gasses (such as Carbon Monoxide, Natural or Liquified Petroleum
Gasses).
Do not use your Air Purifier to remove food odors while cooking. Airborne oils that are released during cooking will plug the
filters. Wait until cooking is completed before operating your Air Purifier.
Install the unit on a stable, flat surface. Do not drop the unit.
Maintain a minimum distance of 5 ft from any heat producing light source. For proper ventilation, maintain a
distance of 6 inches or more from a wall.
Do not use except AC 120V.
It may cause fire or electrical shock.
This unit is not designed to remove combustion by-products such as those produced by open flame burners.
Toxic substances such as carbon monoxide should be ventilated from the room by either using an exhaust fan or
by opening a window.
Your air purifier is not designed to be used in moving vehicles such as cars, RV's or boats.
In-Use
To prevent damage to plants or injury to pets, make sure they are not exposed to direct air flow from the air purifier. This unit is
not intended to be used for the preservation of art objects or precision machinery.
Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Filter should be cleaned once a month.
Do not start or stop operation by plugging in or unplugging the power cord.
Always turn off and unplug the air purifier when it will not be used for extended periods of time. This conserves energy and
reduces the chance of accidents.
Clean filters on a regular basis. Improper filter maintenance can cause premature failure of the product.
Turn off and unplug the unit before disassembling the unit for cleaning.
A damaged filter can create an electrical hazard.
If a humidifier is used in the same room as your Air Purifier, keep the humidifier a safe distance away from the Air
Purifier. Moisture from the humidifier could clog the filters and create an electrical shock hazard.
Do not use your Air Purifier to remove food odors while cooking. Airborne oils that are released during cooking will plug the
filters. Wait until cooking is completed before operating your Air Purifier.
Do not open the front panel during the operation of the product.
Opening the front panel stops the operation.
Keep batteries out of reach of children.
After washing your filters, make sure they are completely dry before reinserting them into the Air Purifier. Do not run

Logics
Terminology
1-1. Negative ion
(1) What is a negative ion?
Atomic element in the air with negative electrons
that releases a refreshing feeling. It can be found
in a forest, waterfalls, thermal spring and etc. If
the atom loses an electron, it turns into a positive
ion. If the atom gains an electron, it turns into an
negative ion.
(2) The platinum three-dimensional anti-
bacteria system.
99.9% highly purified platinum catalyst filter
completely removes those factors which could
cause the sickhouse syndrome such as VOCs,
harmful chemical element and its smell.
1-2. VOCs (Volatile organic
compounds)
(1) What is VOCs?
Carcinogenic substances that cause allergies or
respiratory ailments, such as a paint, adhesives,
spray, construction materials, wax, carpet, and
etc. Unlike the general perception that only cheap
construction materials emit VOCs, high quality
new constructions may also emit VOCs. It may
stay remained in a closet or inside of furniture
even after several years.
Filters Introduction
(1) Pre-Filter
One filter performs antibiotic treatment, anti mold
treatment, and dust removal, providing a purified
air.
(2) Photo-Catalyst Plasma Filter
Photo-Catalyst Plasma Filter removes
microscopic motes, odor, yellow-dusts, and
allergy causing substance through a 3 stage
process, plasma generation part, dust collecting
part, and photo-catalyst filter
(3) Anti-allergic Filter.
The anti-allergic filter could absorbs and
decomposes the ingredients which causes the
allergy, having the allergy preventive effect also
removing the odor and anti-bacteria effect.
(4) Washable HEPA Filter
HEPA filter polluted by acarid deadbody, pollen,
small dust and float mildew, animal bodyhair etc.
can be washed.
(5) Washable Deodorization Filter
This filter was processed with activation treatment
for stronger adsorption function (characteristic of
charcoal). This deodorization filter has higher
level of negative ion, minerals, far infrared lays
generation ability than charcoal.
