not to apply too much

DEODORIZING FILTER
Both surfaces can be
maintained.
The filter may be broken
if being too much power
is applied on it, so please
handle it with care.
Some odors absorbed by the filters will break down over time,
causing additional odors. Depending on usage conditions, and
especially if the unit is used in environments significantly more
severe than a normal household, these odors may become
noticeable sooner than expected.
Replace the filter in those cases or if dust is unable to be
removed after maintenance.

FILTER REPLACEMENT

LIFE OF FILTERS
Filter life varies depending on the room environment,
usage conditions, and location of the unit.
Lifespan of HEPA filter and Deodorizing filter and
replacement suggestions are based on purifying
a room in which 5 cigarettes are smoked per day and
the unit's dust collection and deodorizing performance
has declined to half the level of a new filter.
We recommend replacing the filter more frequently if
the unit is used in conditions significantly more severe
than a normal household.
