Please read before operating your new Air Purier

The air purier draws in room air through

the air intake, circulates it through a Pre­Filter, an Active Carbon Deodorizing Filter
and a HEPA Filter inside the main unit, and
then discharges it 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 absorb

odors. The Active Carbon Deodorizing
Filter gradually absorbs odors as they pass

through the lter.

Some odors absorbed by the lters will break down over time, causing additional odors.

Depending on usage conditions, and especially if the main unit is used in environments

signicantly more severe than a normal household, these odors may become noticeable sooner
than expected. If these odors persist, the lters should be replaced. (page 10)

NOTE

• The air purier is designed to remove air-suspended dust and the odors.
The air purier is not designed to remove harmful gases such as carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke.
The air purier may not completely remove an odor if the source of the odor is still present.

HEPA Filter

Active Carbon
Deodorizing Filter

Pre-Filter

A unique Combination of Air Treatment Technologies
Triple Filteration System + Plasmacluster

High Density Plasmacluster 25000
The higher the PCI density is, the more effective PCI has.

Triple Filteration System

TRAP DUST

Pre-Filter traps dust larger than approx 240 micron particles.

DECREASES ODORS

Active Carbon Deodorizing Filter absorbs many common household odors.

REDUCES TINY DUST, POLLEN & MOLD

HEPA Filter traps 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.

Unique Airow

Powerful air suction and unique airow quickly and efciently collect dust and other particles.

Faster airow at a 20º angle collects dust at

lower levels in the room for more effective
cleaning.

Plasmacluster can remove static electricity
and can thus prevent dust from attaching to
walls and other surfaces.

ENGLISH

Plasmacluster

By emitting a balance of positive and negative ions, Plasmacluster air treatment is a natural process.

PM2.5 Monitor

• Inform by lighting PM2.5 monitor when Sensitive Dust sensor detects microscopic dust.

• Display the value of PM2.5 in 3 digits.

Plasmacluster Ion Spot Mode

• Recommended when odor and germs adhering to sofa and curtains are concerned.

• Emits highdensity Plasmacluster Ions only in the forward directions.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Always follow basic safety precautions
when using electrical appliances,
including the following:

WARNING

following to reduce the risk of electrical

shock, re, or injury:

• Read all instructions before using the
main unit.

• Use only a 220 volt outlet.

• This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to
ensure they do not play with the
appliance.

• If the power cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, its
service agent, a Sharp authorized

Service Center or similarly qualied

persons in order to avoid a hazard.
Contact the nearest Service Center
for any problems, adjustments, or
repairs.

• Be sure to remove the power plug,
before performing maintenance, when
removing and attaching and replacing

the lter and when not using for a

long time. Failure to do so can cause
a short circuit resulting in electrical

shock or re.

• Do not use the main unit if the power
cord or plug is damaged or if the
connection to the wall outlet is loose.

• Periodically remove dust from the plug.

• Do not insert ngers or foreign objects
into the air intake or air outlet.

• When removing the power plug, always
hold the plug and never pull on the cord.
Failure to do so can cause a short circuit

resulting in electrical shock or re.

• Be careful not to damage the power
cord, it may cause electric shock, excess

heat or res.

– Always observe the

• Do not remove the plug when your hands
are wet.

• Do not place the main unit near or on
hot objects, such as stoves or heaters,
or where it may come into contact with
steam.

• Do not operate the main unit in rooms
where aerosol insecticides are present.
Do not operate the main unit in rooms
where there is oily residue, incense,
sparks from lit cigarettes, or chemical
fumes in the air. Do not operate the main
unit in places where it may get wet, such
as a bathroom.

• Be cautious when cleaning the main unit.
Strong corrosive cleansers can damage
the exterior.

• Do not expose the main unit to water.
Doing so can cause a short circuit or
electrical shock.

NOTE

interferes with radio or TV reception

If the air purier interferes with radio or

television reception, try one or more of the

following measures:

• Adjust or reposition the receiving
antenna.

• Increase the distance between the main
unit and the radio or TV.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on
a circuit different from that of the radio or
TV receiver.

• Consult the dealer or a qualied radio or
TV technician.

– What to do if the main unit

EN-2

CAUTIONS CONCERNING
OPERATION

• Do not block the air intake or air outlet.

• Always operate the main unit in an
upright position.

• Do not move the main unit when it is in
operation.

• When moving the main unit, use the
handles on both sides.

• If the main unit is on easily damaged

ooring, an uneven surface, or thick-

piled carpet, lift it up when moving.

• Do not operate the main unit without the

lters properly installed.

• Do not wash and reuse the HEPA lter
and the Active Carbon

Doing so will not improve lter

performance and can also cause electric
shock or operating malfunctions.

• Clean the exterior with a soft cloth only.
Do not use volatile uids or detergents.
The main unit surface may be damaged
or cracked with Benzine, paint thinner
or polishing powder. In addition, the
sensors may malfunction as a result.

• Keep the main unit away from water.

• Do not scrub the Back Panel hard during
its maintenance.

Deodorizing lter.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

• Avoid locations where the sensors are
exposed to direct wind.
Doing so can cause the main unit to
malfunction.

• Avoid locations where furniture, fabrics,
or other objects can come in contact with
the main unit and interfere with the intake
and outtake of air.

• Avoid locations where the main unit
is exposed to condensation or drastic
changes in temperature. Appropriate

room temperature is between 0 – 35 ºC.

• Place the main unit on a level and stable
surface with sufcient air circulation.
When placed on heavy carpet, the main
unit may vibrate slightly.

• Avoid locations that generate grease or
oily smoke.
Doing so can cause the main unit
exterior to crack and the sensors to
malfunction.

• The dust collecting ability of the main
unit is effective even when the main unit
is as close to 3 cm from the wall,the

surrounding walls and oor may get dirty.

Please place the main unit at a distance
from the wall.
The wall directly behind the air outlet
may become dirty over time. When using
the main unit for an extended period of
time at the same location, periodically
clean the walls adjacent to it.

FILTER GUIDELINES

• Follow the instructions in this manual for

proper lter care and maintenance.
