FAQs
How does AQ550 differ from aerosol room fresheners?
The more expensive aerosols can produce a very pleasant scent, but only for a few minutes and in very high
concentrations just in the area they were sprayed. AQ550 is what is known as a “continuous action” air
freshener. AQ550 is programmed to deliver an evenly distributed scent throughout the room.
Is AQ550 eco-friendly?
Yes, AQ550 is the most eco-friendly air freshener on the market. Unlike aerosols, AQ550 uses no propellants
and produces no harmful volatile organic compounds, or VOCs. Unlike many air fresheners, AQ550 uses no
ethanol or similar solvents to enhance the evaporation of fragrance chemicals.
I only want to scent the room at certain times. Do I have to turn it
on and off every time?
AQ550 has a tiny on-board computer for fully automatic operations. You can set set up to 21 separate start
and stop times. (See
If I want a different scent, can I switch cartridges?
Yes, simply remove the cartridge and replace it with another.
IMPORTANT
Always keep plugs in cartridges when not in use. If you
have misplaced the plugs from the cartridge being
removed from AQ550, you can use the plugs from the new
cartridge being inserted.
Will AQ550 leave deposits on furniture or carpeting?
No, provided you do not direct the output at a surface closer than 12 inches away.
Will AQ550 fragrances stain surfaces or fabric?
Yes, all air-care fragrances will stain wood and stone and all fabrics if spilled. The best solution is avoidance
by replacing the plugs on cartridges after removing them and keeping the plugs on all cartridges when not
in use.
How do I clean up a drip?
If there is a drip, blot it as quickly as possible and then clean with soap and water.
Are there special concerns for Track Light-mounted appliances?
Yes. See the section in this manual
IMPORTANT
Never situate an AQ550 on a horizontal surface without the
proper Table Top accessory kit, otherwise spills may occur.
