REMEDY (not a malfunction)
• Have the batteries been depleted?
• Are the batteries inserted correctly?
• Is a fluorescent lighting in the room flickering due to service
life? (Refer to E-7,E-10)
• Clean the filters if they appear to be heavily soiled.
(Refer to E-14,E-15)
• The air could be impure at the time the unit was plugged in.
(Refer to E-8)
• The sensitivity of the sensor becomes unstable when the open-
ing of the dust sensor is dirty or is clogged.
Clean the dust around the sensor opening using a vacuum
cleaner. (Refer to E-16)
• When in Clean Mode ( or Ion Control Mode), the Plasmaclus-
ter Indicator Light color will not change.
• Clicking sound is emitted when the unit is in the Ion Control
Mode.
If the sound is irritating, set the unit away from you.
• Ticking sound is emitted when the unit is generating ions.
If the sound is irritating, such as when sleeping, set the unit
away from you.
• Check to see if the filters are heavily soiled.
Care the Washable Active Carbon Filter or replace filters.
• Check to see if the Washable Active Carbon Filter is dried thor-
oughly after cleaning it.
• Very low concentration of ozone generated by the
Plasmacluster ion generator may have an odor.
This is harmless and will not affect the human body. Also, the
ozone will break down quickly and will not accumulate in the
room environment.
• Is the unit installed in a location that is difficult for the sensors
to detect cigarette smoke?
• Are the odor sensor openings blocked or clogged?
(In this case, clean the openings.) (Refer to E-16)
• After cleaning or replacing filters, connect the power cord to
an outlet and press the Filter Reset Button on the main unit or
on the remote control. (Refer to E-15)
• Check to see if the Display OFF Mode on the Remote Control
is selected. If so, then press the Display ON/OFF Button on
the Remote Control to activate the indicator light.
