Please read before operating your new Air Purifier
The air purifier draws in room air from its air intake, lets the air pass through a
Active Carbon Filter (deodorization filter) and a True HEPA Filter (dust collection filter) inside of the unit, then discharges the air from its air outlet. The air
purifier unit repeats this process by moving its internal fan.
As air passes through, the True HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust particles, of as small as 0.3 microns. The Active Carbon Filter gradually absorbs
odor elements as they repeatedly pass through the filter. (Odor elements are
absorbed by True HEPA Filter as well.)
Some odor ingredients absorbed by the filters may become separated and
may be discharged through the air outlet and result in additional odor. Depending on the usage environment, especially when the product is used in a
condition significantly more severe than household use, this odor may become strong in a shorter period than expected. In this case, clean the Active
Carbon Filter (Refer to E-14)
If the odor persists, then the filters are fully expended and it is necessary to
purchase the optional replacement filter kit FZ-N25HFU.

FEATURES
Plasmacluster Ion Control
Your new air purifier will control the
ratio of negative ions and positive ions
depending on the condition of the
room.
• Clean Mode
Approximately the same numbers of
positive and negative ions are discharged.
• Ion Control Mode
Plenty of negative ions exist in natural surroundings such as waterfalls or
forests. In this mode, negative ions
will be released in an increased rate.
• AUTO Plasmacluster Ion Mode
The unit will switch between Clean
Mode and Ion Control Mode automatically depending on the amount of impurities in the air detected by the odor
sensor.

following:
WARNING - To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire or injury to persons:
• Read all instructions before using the air purifier.
• Use only a 120-volt outlet with a polarized receptacle.
• The air purifier has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other is). This plug will fit in a
