9OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS & CARE AND CLEANING
REPLACING FILTER
The filter cannot be washed and must always
be replaced when at end of life. Visit our local
website to order your replacement filter.
When the filter is at end of life, the filter
change icon will light up on the product
control panel to indicate the need for
replacement. When filter is at end of life, the
unit’s fan speed may be reduced in SMART
mode.
The used filter might be heavily coated with
dust and particulate matter so before
opening the main unit, please ensure a
disposable bag or packaging is at hand to
place the used filter in.
Turn OFF the air purifier or unplug the unit
before changing the filters. Remove the top
part of the main body put it aside. Next
remove the filter which is at end of life and
place it in a disposable bag at hand. (ref. page
6).
Next, please remove the plastic bag from the
replacement filter and insert the filter in to the
product. Reinsert back the top part of the
main body and turn ON the unit. Reset the
filter change icon on the product control
panel by long pressing the MODE button for 3
seconds.
Discard the used filter as well as any plastic
packaging according to local recycling
guidelines.
Always unplug the air purifier before cleaning
to prevent shock or fire hazards. Never use

cannot be washed, they must always be
replaced when at the end of life.
Cleaning the air quality sensor box and sensor
Clean every 1-2 months to maintain the
performance of the air quality sensor.
Ensure that the air quality sensor is kept clean
and unclogged for optimal performance of
the unit. It is natural for dust to accumulate in
this area, vacuuming of the sensor box inlet
grill with a vacuum cleaner that has a narrow
nozzle/brush.
Open the sensor box inlet grill with finger and
clean the lens, inlet and outlet with wet
cotton swab.
Use dry cotton swab to remove any excess
water from the sensor.
CARE AND CLEANING
background
10 CARE AND CLEANING
After having cleaned the sensor box, we
recommend to vacuum clean the filter at the
same time.
If you are not planning to use the appliance
for a long time, cover it with plastic or return
it to its carton.
The plastic parts of the unit should be cleaned
with an oil-free dry cloth. For stains on plastic
parts, use a slightly damp soft microfiber
cloth to gently rub against the stain.
The area around the air inlet on the bottom of
the unit may accumulate more dust than
some other parts and hence may require
more frequent cleaning to ensure optimal
performance. The filter is equipped with a
mesh filter and should occasionally be wiped
off or cleaned with a vacuum cleaner to avoid
loss of performance.
STORAGE
background
11BEFORE YOU CALL
The air purifier’s alert
icon is lit.
The air purifier is
running at max fan
speed all the time for
extended periods
The air purifier is
running at lowest fan
speed all the time for
extended periods
Generally, the unit comes with a variety of
sophisticated sensors, electronics and other electrical
components and if one of these is malfunctioning, you
will see the alert icon on the product control panel
light up.
If in MANUAL mode, please check the fan speed slider
on the product control panel and adjust it to desired
level.
If in SMART mode, please check if the sensor is
clogged. Please clean the sensor as described under
care and cleaning section.
Please have at hand the
unit’s PNC and SERIAL
number if you need to
contact service
organisation for
support.
The PM sensor in the
unit is highly accurate
and sensitive and it is
normal for the purifier
to react to poor air
quality by ramping up
the fan speed to get
your indoor air quality
back to safe levels.
If in MANUAL mode, please check the fan speed on
the product control panel display and adjust it to
desired level.
If in SMART mode, please check air quality indicator
on the product control panel if the air quality is very
good, fan speed will be lowest! If the air quality is bad
and the unit is still operating at lowest fan speed, then
please check filter change icon on the product control
panel. And if lit, please replace used filter with a new
one. This should resolve the specific fan speed issue.
The unit is designed so
that when a filter is at
end of life, it will
discourage usage till
the filter is replaced, by
limiting the fan speed
so as not to reintroduce
the captured
particulate matter back
into the air.
When fault indicators show that the system is not operating properly, perform the following
check.
The table below is only a limited list. For the latest and complete section on troubleshooting,
FAQ and error guide please refer to the corresponding section on our website.
SOLUTION NOTESOCCURRENCE
The air purifier
produces a loud or
abnormal noise
Please ensure that the plastic bag around the filter has
been removed, ensure the air inlet grill and air outlet
grill (top of the unit) are unobstructed and that there
is a clearance of at least 30 cm between the unit and
the nearest surface.
If there is an abnormal
noise in your product,
even after checking the
steps in the trouble
shoot guide, please
contact an authorized
service center for
further support.
The air purifier or fan
does not operate
Ensure that the unit is receiving power. If needed, try
pushing the power plug firmly into the wall socket to
check if this resolves the issue. Check that the fuse of
your home has not blown or that the circuit breaker
has been tripped. Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker
if needed.

For Frigidaire® Service.
SOLUTION NOTESOCCURRENCE
The air purifier is
running but the air
quality does not
improve
If you do not see any improvement of the air quality
values according to the air quality light.
Change to MANUAL mode and adjust the fan speed to
a higher level to see if this helps resolve the issue.
If you still do not see any improvement. Close any
open doors OR windows to the outside of the room
and rerun the unit at the highest fan speed for 20
minutes. If this resolves the issue, we recommend that
you operate the unit in this sealed environment as
much as possible, till the air quality is also at a good
level.
If the unit is placed in a
room larger than the
recommended size, it
will take longer for the
air quality to improve
please be patient and
maintain the unit at the
highest feasible speed.
The air purifier
produces or emits a
strange smell
The first time you run the unit, you may perceive a
plastic, glue or paint smell - especially near the air
outlet grill - this is unavoidable in some cases (like the
'new car smell') but should disappear quickly.
If you perceive a burning smell, please disconnect the
unit and contact authorized service center for further
support.
The VOC filter is in the end of life. Please change to a
new filter.
Always ensure that the
filter are covered in
appropriate packaging
while stored away
between uses, and that
all parts are dry to
avoid smell or mould
build up.
The filter icon is lit,
even though I
recently changed the
filters
After having changed the filter, long press the MODE
button for 3 seconds and the filter indication will be
reset.
It is important to turn
OFF the unit before
changing the filter, in
order to reset the
product.
