Replacing the Filter Assembly / Deodorizing Filter
Replacement Interval
The fi lter is disposable. The deodorizing performance of the fi lter decreases with use.
The standard life of a fi lter assembly and a deodorizing fi lter is approximately 10 years as determined by the
Japan Electrical Manufacturers' Association.
A test according to JEM1467(Japan Electrical Manufacturers' Association) was conducted.
If 5 cigarettes are
smoked per day:
[Filter Assembly] Number of years is up to the point the air purifying time takes twice as long as when the fi lter
was new.
[Deodorizing Filter] Number of years is up to the point the deodorizing rate (ammonia, acetaldehyde, and acetic
acid usually contained in tobacco) becomes half as when the fi lter was new.
* This is only a guide. It differs from the actual use in an average household.
The lter assembly should be replaced immediately if its color resembles any of the colors on the dirtiness
label attached to the unit.
The colors on the dirtiness label only serve as a guide.
Depending on the installation location, the actual color
of the contaminated fi lter may differ from the color on the label.

remains after the construction or remodeling of a building
When used in stores, such as in coffee shops, game parlors, barber shops, beauty parlors, hotels, inns, and of-
ces
When used in places with strong smells such as cigarettes, barbecue, aroma oils, or air fresheners

When the purifi er takes in solvents such as paints, adhesives, etc.
When used in dusty locations near roads subject to heavy traffi c.
