This product earned the ENERGY STAR by meeting strict energy effi ciency guidelines set by the US
EPA. US EPA does not endorse any manufacturer
claims of healthier indoor air from the use of this
product.
The energy effi ciency of this ENERGY STAR quali-
fi ed model is measured based on a ratio between
the model’s CADR for Dust and the electrical energy it consumes, or CADR/Watt.
Ce produit a le droit de porter la marque ENERGY
STAR après avoir répondu à des critères stricts en
ce qui concerne l’efficacité énergétique, tels qu’
établis par l’agence EPA aux É-U. L’agence EPA
aux É-U n’appuie aucunement les témoignages
publicitaires du fabricant indiquant que ce produit
rend l’air intérieur des locaux plus sain.
L’effi cacité énergétique de ce modèle, qui bénéfi cie
de la reconnaissance ENERGY STAR, est mesurée
par le rapport entre le DAP (débit d’air purifi é) du
modèle et l’énergie électrique qu’il consomme, soit
le rapport DAP/Watt.
Please read before operating your new Air Purifi er
Some odors ingredients absorbed by the fi lter 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 signifi cantly more severe than household use, this odor may be-
come strong in a shorter period than expected.
In this case we recommend purchasing the optional replacement fi lter kit
FZ-P30SFU.
NOTE
• The air purifi er is designed to remove air-suspended dust and odor, but not harmful gases (for
example, carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke). If the odor sources still exist, it cannot
completely remove the odor (for example, odors from construction materials and pet odors).
• It is suggested to open the window a bit when you are smoking in order to facilitate ventilation.

tact a qualifi ed electrician or service person.
• 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 fi ngers or foreign objects into the intake or air outlet.
