Sharp FP-FM40A Operation Manual page 2

Please read before operating your new Air Purifi er
The air purifi er draws in room air from the air intake, passes the air through a Pre-
Filter, an Active Carbon Deodorizing Filter and a HEPA Filter inside of the unit, then
discharges the air through the air outlet. The HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust
particles as small as 0.3 microns that pass through the fi lter.
The Active Carbon Deodorizing Filter gradually absorbs odors as they pass through
the fi lter.
Some odors absorbed by the fi lters may break down over time, resulting in additional
odor. Depending on the usage environment, especially when the product is used in
extreme environments (significantly more severe than normal household use), this
odor may become strong in a shorter period than expected. If the odor persists, the
fi lters should be replaced.
Mosquito Catcher Function
Mosquitoes are attracted by UV light, black color body and easy-hiding sized window
of Catch Panel. When the mosquitoes come to the trap window of Catch Panel closely,
they are sucked by the powerful airfl ow, then they are fi rmly caught by powerful Glue
Sheet attached to the inner side of Catch Panel.
NOTE
• The air purifi er is designed to remove air-suspended dust and odor, but not harmful gases (for
example, carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke). If the source of the odor still exists, the
air purifi er may not completely remove the odor.
• Mosquito Catcher mode may not catch all the mosquitoes in the room.
• The mosquitoes which have not got caught in Glue Sheet might escape from the window of Catch
Panel, so please do not switch off the power while Mosquito Catcher is in operation as much as
possible except for exchanging fi lters and Glue Sheet.
