The air purier draws in room air from its air intake, lets the air pass through
an Active Carbon Filter (deodorization lter) and a HEPA Filter (dust collection lter) inside of the unit, then discharges the air from its air outlet. The
air purier unit repeats this process by moving its internal fan.
As air passes through the HEPA lter if removes 99.97% of dust particles (as
small as 0.3 microns.). The Active Carbon Filter gradually absorbs odour elements as they repeatedly pass through the lter.
Some odour ingredients absorbed by the lters may become separated and
may be discharged through the air outlet and result in additional odour. Depending on the usage environment, especially when the product is used in
a condition signicantly more severe than household use, this odour may
become strong in a shorter period than expected.
If the odour persist the lters should be replaced.
Please purchase the optional replacement lter.
NOTE
• The air purier is designed to remove air-suspended dust and odour, but not harmful gases (for
example, carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke.) If the odour sources still exist, it cannot
completely remove the odour. (for example, odours from construction materials and pet odours.)
• It is suggested to open the window a bit when you are smoking in order to facilitate ventilation.

FEATURES
"Plasmacluster" technology
Plasmacluster technology uses plasma discharge to produce and release
the same positive and negative ions
as those found in nature ("Plasma-
cluster ions").
This is a unique air cleaning technology of the SHARP CORPORATION
for breaking down and eliminating
such potential allergens as the fecal
matter or corpses of aerial mites*1,
viruses *2 and mold and bacteria *3
suspended in the air, and has been
substantiated by third-party organiza-
tions both in Japan and overseas.
When there is a high density of Plasmacluster ions in the air, the smell of
cigarette smoke trapped in curtains
or so fas is eliminated in about 80
minutes, and when clothing is hung in
a place exposed to the direct air expelled from the unit generating Plasmacluster ions, the smell of sweat is
reduced to a virtually imperceptible
level in one night (about 6 hours).
Thank you for purchasing the SHARP Air Purier. Please read this manual carefully for the
correct usage information. Before using this
product, be sure to read the section: “Important
Safety Instructions.”
After reading this manual, retain it in a conven-
ient location for future reference.

yellow or red even when the air
is clean.
A clicking or ticking sound is
heard from the unit.
The discharged air has an aroma
or odour.
The unit does not operate when
cigarette smoke is in the air.
REMEDY (not a malfunction)
• Clean or replace the lters if they appear to be heavily soiled.
