4.2 Control Panel and Operation
The control panel is your primary interface for operating the purifier.
- Power Button: Turns the purifier on and off.
- Fan Speed / Mode Button: Cycles through fan speeds (Low, Medium, High) and Auto mode. In Auto mode, the fan speed adjusts automatically based on real-time air quality readings.

- Timer Button: Sets the auto-off timer. Press repeatedly to cycle through 2H, 4H, 8H, and Timer Off.
- Filter Reset Indicator: An indicator light that illuminates when the filter needs to be replaced. After replacing the filter, this indicator must be reset (procedure not detailed in source).
4.3 Display Screen
The digital display shows real-time air quality information using a color-coded system:
- Blue: Good air quality.
- Yellow: Moderate air quality.
- Red: Poor air quality.
In Auto mode, the fan speed will increase if the display changes to yellow or red.
4.4 Using the Remote Control
The remote control mirrors the functions on the main control panel (Power, Mode, Sleep, Timer). Point the remote at the front of the purifier to operate.
4.5 Recommended Usage
- For continuous air cleaning, leave the purifier running on Auto or Low speed.
- Use higher speeds (Medium/High) for rapid purification when entering a room or after activities that generate pollutants (cooking, dusting).
- Engage Sleep Mode for quiet operation in bedrooms at night.
- Use the timer to have the purifier turn off automatically after a set period.
5. Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning the Pre-filter

- Open the filter compartment and remove the pre-filter (the outermost filter layer).
- Gently vacuum or rinse the pre-filter with water. Allow it to dry completely before reinstalling.
- Reinstall the dry pre-filter and close the compartment.
- Cleaning the washable pre-filter every 2-4 weeks is recommended to maintain efficiency and extend the life of the main HEPA filter by 6-8 months.
5.2 Replacing the HEPA & Carbon Filter

- Turn off and unplug the unit.
- Open the filter compartment and remove the old filter set.
- Insert the new replacement filter set, ensuring it is oriented correctly.
- Close the compartment securely.
- Reset the Filter Indicator: Locate the Filter Reset button or procedure (often involves holding a button for 3-5 seconds). Consult the product's quick-start guide if available.
Note: Use only JOWSET AP403 replacement filters for optimal performance and safety.
