After turning on the product, check the alarm sound warning function by blocking the air 

outlet as fig.11 shown in the picture above. The warning signal on the panel should flash with 

a sound and blower vibrate (approximately 15 to 30 seconds after the outlet is blocked). The 

product is working correctly if the warning functions follow the process above.

(Please make sure the filter is equipped and the battery is fully charged before doing this 

test.)

SELF CHECK BEFORE EACH TIME USE

ALL THE TESTS MUST ALWAYS BE DONE IN A SAFE ENVIRONMENT.
