The air quality
indicator light
stays red.
• If the concentration of particulates is more than the
capacity of the product, the display may not change.
• Turn the product off and on by pressing the Start/Stop
button.
• Do not use sprays near the product.
The
concentration of
particulates may
not change.
In a closed area with little ventilation or air exchange,
the air quality may remain the same.
The
concentration of
particulates
stays high.
In an environment or open space where outside air is
supplied continuously, the concentration may remain
high.
A strange odor
comes out from
the air outlet as
well as the filter.
• The product is not meant to replace ventilation devices.
Open doors or windows or use vent hood to ventilate
smoke or strong odors before using the product.
• Replace the filter. The filter replacement frequency may
differ depending on the usage environment.
Cannot pair with
Bluetooth device.
• Reset the Bluetooth connection on your mobile device
and try again.
• Make sure that the Bluetooth setting is turned on.
• Remove obstacles between the product and the mobile
device.
• Bluetooth pairing may not work depending on the

TROUBLESHOOTING
CAUTION
!
• Do not wipe the appliance surface using sulfuric acid,
hydrochloric acid or organic solvent (thinner, kerosene etc.) or
attach a sticker on the appliance.

CAUTION
!
• Do not store the appliance on the dashboard of a vehicle.
Prolonged exposure of the product to direct sunlight and
excessive temperatures may cause explosion, fire or product
malfunction.
SMART FUNCTIONS
Monitoring Air Quality
Use the Puricare Mini app to select when the particulate sensor
operates.
- Turns On with Product
- Always On: Monitors the air quality even when the product is
in standby mode.
NOTE
• The concentration of particulates could be affected by cooking
or using humidifiers, sprays or other products which generate
steam or fine particles.
• Even two products placed in the same space could measure
the concentration of particulates differently due to air
circulation.
• The concentration of particulates displayed may change with
environmental factors such as the presence of sofas, beds,
carpets, vacuum cleaners, humidity, smoke, bugs, pets or
cooking oils.
• The PM concentration may be affected by changes in the
outside environment such as construction, heavy traffic or
pollen.
• The concentration of particulates could be higher near outside
doors, windows, vents or in areas where outside air enters.
Outside airflow near the particulate sensor might interrupt
normal operation of the sensor and cause the PM level shown
to be different than the actual PM level.
• The battery runtime may be greatly reduced when the air
quality monitoring is running.
• PM (particulate matter) concentration is displayed in
increments of 1 unit, from 8 to 999. PM concentration values
are based on the data sheet provided by the sensor
manufacturer.
• The PM concentration measurement was tested using LG
Electronics’ standard test materials.

connection is active.
• If you have multiple products connected to the same
smartphone, scroll the screen from left to right to select the
desired product.
• The PuriCare Mini app is compatible with Android version 8.0 or
higher.
NOTE
• If the concentration of particulates stays high even after
moving the product to a different area, bring the product in to
a service center to have the particulate sensor cleaned.
The concentration of particulates can be checked using the
Puricare Mini app.
