PART III IMPORTANT PARTS - ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER
The activated carbon filter is also one of the important parts of the unit. The activated
carbon filter of the unit is located behind the electronic cell. Activated carbon, the
universal adsorbent, has a capacity for virtually all vapor contaminants and will adsorb
and retain a wide variety of chemicals at the same time.
The adsorb diffuses thru the surface film to the macropore structure. Then, due to van
der Walls' forces, the gas molecule migrates into the micropore structure, condensing
during this movement, and finally stopping when either the forces become balanced or
it becomes physically blocked.
To improve the odor removing performance, the unit utilizes a carbon powder
impregnated pad not granular form. Room conditions such as air temperature and
humidity also effect the capacity of adsorbents to remove odors.
The activated carbon filter should be replaced when it is no longer effective in
eliminating odors.
Replacing the activated carbon filter
When the CARBON FILTER ( FILTER LIFE) indicator light on the control panel flashes you need to replace the carbon filter.
After replacing the carbon filter, you have to reset the unit.
1. Remote control: Press the RESET1 5 times or press the RESET button 3 times ( when there is only one RESET button on the
remote control).
2. Press one time the reset button on the back of the unit.
3. Hold 3 seconds the POWER button to reset.
Press once to reset
