AIR PURIFIER
OPERATION MANUAL
*The number in this technology mark indicates an
approximate number of ions supplied into air of 1 cm
which is measured around the center of a room with
the “high-density plasmacluster 7000” applicable oor
area (at 1.2 m height above the oor) at the medium
wind volume in air purifying mode, when an air purier
using the high-density plasmacluster ion evolving
device is placed close to a wall. This product is
equipped with a device corresponding to this capacity.

Please read before operating your new Air Purier
The air purier draws in room air from the air intake, passes the air through a Back
Panel, a Deodorizing Filter and a HEPA Filter inside of the unit, then discharges the air
through the air outlet. The HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust particles as small
as 0.3 microns that pass through the lter and also helps absorb odors.
The Deodorizing Filter gradually absorbs odors as they pass through the lter.
Some odors absorbed by the lters may break down over time, resulting in additional
odor. Depending on the usage environment, especially when the product is used in
extreme environments (significantly more severe than normal household use), this
odor may become strong in a shorter period than expected. If the odor persists, the
lters should be replaced.
NOTE
• The air purier is designed to remove air-suspended dust and odor, but not harmful gases (for example, carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke). If the source of the odor still exists, the air
purier may not completely remove the odor.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING
• Read all instructions before using the unit.
• Use only a 220-240 volt outlet.
• Do not use the unit if the power cord or plug is damaged or the connection to the
wall outlet is loosened.
• Periodically remove dust from the power plug.
• Do not insert ngers or foreign objects into the intake or air outlet.
• When removing the power plug, always hold the plug and never pull the cord.
Electrical shock and/or re from short circuit may occur as a result.
• Be careful not to damage the power cord, it may cause electric shock, excess heat or
res.
• Do not remove the plug when your hands are wet.
• Do not use this unit near gas appliances or replaces.
• Remove the power plug from the wall outlet before cleaning the unit and when not
using the unit.
Electrical shock from bad insulation and/or re from short circuit may occur as a result.
• When cleaning the unit, or when the unit is not in use, be sure to unplug the unit. Electrical
shock and/or re from a short circuit may result.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent, Sharp Approved Service Centre or similarly qualified person in order to
avoid a hazard.
• Do not operate when using aerosol insecticides or in rooms where there is oily residue,
incense, sparks from lit cigarettes, chemical fumes in the air or in very high humidity conditions, such as a bathroom.
• Be cautious when cleaning the unit. Corrosive cleansers may damage the exterior.
• Only a Sharp Authorized Service Centre should service this air purier. Contact the near-
est Service Centre for any problems, adjustments, or repairs.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe
way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
- To reduce the risk of electrical shock, re or injury to persons:
NOTE
If this air purier should cause interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the unit and radio/TV receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
- Radio or TV Interference
E-2
OM_FP-G50J_EN.indd 2 2017/01/10 16:47:15
CAUTIONS CONCERNING OPERATION
• Do not block the intake and/or air outlet.
• Do not use the unit near or on hot objects, such as stoves or heaters or where it may
come into contact with steam.
• Do not lay the unit down when using.
• Always hold the handle on the back of the unit when moving it.
• Do not use without the lters inside the unit.
• Do not wash and reuse the HEPA lter and the deodorizing lter.
Not only does it not improve lter performance, it may cause electric shock or malfunction.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
• When using the unit, place it away from equipment utilizing electric waves such as
televisions or radios to avoid electrical interference.
• Avoid use in locations where furniture, fabrics or other items may come in contact
with and restrict the air intake and/or air outlet.
• Avoid use in locations where the unit is exposed to condensation or drastic
temperature changes. Appropriate conditions are when room temperature is
between 0 – 35 ºC.
• Place on a stable surface with sufcient air circulation.
When placing the unit on a heavily carpeted area, the unit may vibrate slightly.
• Avoid locations where grease or oily smoke is generated.
The unit surface may crack as a result.
• Place the unit about 30 cm(1 ft) away from the wall in order to ensure proper
airow.
The dust collecting performance will be the same even if using the unit 3cm away from
the wall, but place it as far as possible(30cm away recommended) because it may dirty
the wall or oor around.
FILTER GUIDELINES
• Follow the instructions in this manual for correct care and maintenance of the lter.

FILTER REPLACEMENT GUIDELINES
Replacement timing
Do not wash and reuse the lter
The lter life and replacement period are based on the condition of smoking 5 cigarettes per
day and the Dust and odor collection power is reduced by half compared with that of new lter.
Filter life varies depending on the room environment, usage, and location of the unit.
We recommend to replace the lter more frequently if the product is used in a condition significantly severer than normal household use.
REPLACING THE FILTER
About 2 years after operating

TROUBLESHOOTING
Before calling for service, please review the Troubleshooting chart below, since the problem may not
be a unit malfunction.
SYMPTOM REMEDY (not a malfunction)
Odors and smoke are not removed.
The DUST AND ODOR SIGN
illuminates green even when the
air is impure.
The DUST AND ODOR SIGN illuminates orange or red even when
the air is clean.
A clicking or ticking sound is heard
from the unit.
The discharged air has an odor.
The unit does not operate properly
when cigarette smoke is in the air.
• Replace the lters if they appear to be heavily soiled.
(Ref. E-9)
• The air could be impure at the time the unit was plugged in.
Unplug the unit, wait one minute, and plug the unit in again.
• Sensor operation is affected if the Dust and odor sensor
openings are dirty or clogged. Gently clean the Dust and odor
sensor openings.
(Ref. E-9).
• Clicking or ticking sounds may be audible when the unit is
generating ions.
• Check to see if the lters are heavily soiled.
• Clean or replace the lters.
• Plasmacluster Air Puriers emit small traces of ozone which
may produce an odor.
• Is the unit installed in a location that is difcult for the sensor to
detect cigarette smoke?
• Is the dust and odor sensor opening blocked or clogged?
(In this case, clean the opening.) (Ref. E-9)
The
DUST AND ODOR SIGN
is
turned off.
The DUST AND ODOR SIGN lights
change colour frequently.
• Check to see if the Lights OFF Mode selected.
Press
Check to see if the SLEEP mode is selected.
•
The DUST AND ODOR/PLASMACLUSTER SIGN are turned off
automatically after the SLEEP mode is selected.
