Cleaning and maintenance
Before you clean the air purifier, you must stop the operation and unplug the air purifier.
Cleaning the exterior
Saturate the provided cleaning only towel with warm water and wring the towel
tightly. Then wipe the air purifier with the towel.
Especially, dust might pile up around the air inlet of the air purifier, so please clean
the area frequently.
• Do not clean the digital display and control panel with alkaline
detergent.
• Do not use acid, acetone or organic solvent(Kerosene, Thinner, etc.) to
clean the surface and do not attach any stickers. They may damage
the surface of the appliance.
• When wiping the surface of the air purifier with coarse cloth or rag,
fine scratch might be on the surface of the air purifier. Therefore, you
should use a soft cloth.
CAUTION
Air inlet
Cleaning sensor section
Sensor section is composed of the dust sensor and odor sensor. The dust sensor
detects the contamination level of fine dust or big dust particle and the odor
sensor detects the contamination level of general odors of home such as food
and cigarette smells. The lens of the dust sensor should be cleaned periodically to
maintain its performance efficiency.
1 . Open the side sensor cover.
Open the side sensor cover using a mini screwdriver or an object with flat or
thin end.
2 . Clean the dust sensor lens with a cotton bud and remove the dust around
the odor sensor.
• Except for water, do not clean the sensor section with volatile matter
such as alcohol and benzene.
• When removing dust from the dust sensor, do not wipe off the dust
sensor grid.
• When foreign matter(dust) remains around the dust sensor lens, the
contamination level status might not be changed from contamination
status. In that case, clean the sensor again.
CAUTION
3 . Close the side sensor.
Put the side sensor cover into the left side groove and push it in the arrow
direction.
• You can conveniently clean the sensor section with a vacuum cleaner
with the side sensor closed.
• Clean the sensor section every six months. However, the cleaning
period can vary according to the surrounding environment and hours
of usage, so the period should be shorter in a dusty environment.
