CAUTIONS CONCERNING OPERATION
• Do not operate the unit without the filters and the Humidifying Tray properly installed.
• Keep the unit away from water.
• Do not wash and reuse the HEPA filter and Deodorizing filter.
Doing so will not improve filter performance and can also cause electric shock or operating
malfunctions.
• Clean the exterior with a soft cloth only.
Do not use volatile liquids or detergents. Doing so can damage or crack the exterior of the unit.
In addition, doing so can cause sensor malfunctions.
• The frequency of descaling maintenance will depend on the hardness of and the impurities in the
water that you use; the harder the water the more often descaling will be necessary.
• Before moving the unit, make sure it is not operating, and remove the Humidifying Tray while holding

unit.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
• When using the unit, place it at least 2 meters away from equipment that emits electric waves, such
as televisions or radios, to avoid electrical interference.
• Avoid locations where the sensors are exposed to direct wind.
Failure to do so can cause the unit to malfunction.
• Avoid locations where furniture, fabrics, or other objects can come in contact with the unit and
interfere with the intake and outtake of air.
• Avoid locations where the unit is exposed to condensation or drastic changes in temperature.
Appropriate room temperature is between 0 – 35 ºC.
• Place the unit on a level and stable surface with sufficient air circulation.
When placed on heavy carpet, the unit may vibrate slightly.
Place the unit on a level surface to avoid water leakage from the Humidifying Tray.
• Avoid locations that generate grease or oily smoke.
Failure to do so can cause the unit exterior to crack and the sensors to malfunction.
• The dust collecting ability of the unit is effective even when the unit is as close to 3 cm from the wall,
the surrounding walls and floor may get dirty. Please place the unit at a distance from the wall.
The wall directly behind the air outlet may become dirty over time. When using the unit for an
extended period of time at the same location, periodically clean the walls adjacent to it.
