  • HEPA-13 filter, that captures 99.9% of dust, dander, pollen, allergens and other ultrafine impurities in the air.
  • Carbon layer in filter helps reduce odours.
  • Antimicrobial coating prevents bacterial growth on the filter and protects it against degradation.

Plasma Ion Technology
Projects positive and negative ions into the air.

Cleaner Air in Minutes
Operating at AHAM-verified clean air delivery rate (CADR)., AHAM is Association of Household Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM). AHAM delivery rate based on filtering pollen, tobacco smoke and dust. It does not relate to viruses or bacteria.

Automatic Operation
Intelligent Sensors monitor air quality and adjust fan speed automatically to work 24/7.**
**Sensors have a margin of error of +/- 20 micrograms per cubic metre in detecting changes in air quality.

  9. The unit sets itself to Auto operation.

Using your air purifier

Turn on the unit

  • If the unit is unplugged, plug the electrical cord into an electrical outlet.
  • If the unit is plugged in but turned off, press the Power button until the display turns on.

Turn off the unit

  • To stop the unit from operating, press the Power button, and the unit will turn off.

Automatic operation
There are 3 modes of operation: (1) Fan auto mode; (2) Night mode and (3) Eco mode. Our product software uses sensors to intelligently control the Instant™ Air Purifier. One sensor constantly monitors and reports air quality. Another sensor monitors ambient light.

Auto Mode
Fan auto mode adjusts fan speed up or down according to detected air quality.

  • When sensor detects air quality is good (white), Instant™ Air Purifier turns fan to low with plasma ion technology on.
  • When sensor detects air quality fair (yellow), Instant™ Air Purifier turns fan to medium with plasma ion technology on.
  • When sensor detects air quality poor (red), Instant™ Air Purifier turns fan to high with plasma ion technology on.

Economy or Eco Mode
If air quality is detected as good for 30 minutes, the Instant™ Air Purifier enters Economy or Eco Mode, meaning that the fan cycles on and off every 10 minutes. When fan is on, it is measuring air quality. Eco Mode allows 50% energy reduction. (Energy Star certified).

  • If sensor detects air quality is good (white), Instant™ Air Purifier remains in eco mode with plasma ion technology on.
  • If sensor detects air quality is fair or poor, Instant™ Air Purifier exits eco mode and returns to Auto Mode.

Night Mode
Night Mode senses room lighting, turning light off and turns fan speed to low. You may set custom light level, providing for dimmed light level. If Night Mode is chosen, plasma ion technology is turned off for quietest operation. Efficacy in removing viruses and bacteria is reduced.

  • During Night mode, touch the LIGHT button to turn on the display
Room Light Display
Dark Turns display off
Light Lights display

Fan speed
If you press FAN ICON, you can manually control fan level: low, medium or high.

  • The lowest fan speed operates at whisper-quiet level, less than 24 decibels.
  • To return to Auto operation, touch the Auto button.

Light level
If you press the LIGHT ICON button, you can manually control light level at 0%; 20%; 60% and 100%. The light levels are pre-set at these levels:

Light Room Dark Room
100% brightness 0% brightness

You change the current light level manually.

  • Press the LIGHT ICON button to cycle through the brightness levels: 0%, 20%, 60% and 100%. The next time the unit switches to either Day or Night, the light level will change back to the pre-set level.

You can customise the pre-set for Day or Night light levels.

  • First, set the light level manually. Then press and hold the LIGHT ICON button for 3 seconds to save the current setting as the Day or Night light level.

Air quality
As it constantly monitors the air in the room, your air purifier shows your air quality in two ways:
Air quality indicator

  • A sensor monitors the concentration of the mass of particulates in the air. (ug per cubic metre). Also, known as PM2.5 sensor.
  • If you press the INFO Button on a AP200 or AP300 model, you can switch between the air quality measurement (ug per cubic metre) or the % of good air quality based on the US air quality index.
    Indicator Air Quality Measurement
    White Good at <35 ug per cubic metre
    Yellow Fair at 35-55 ug per cubic metre
    Red Poor >55 ug per cubic metre
  • AP100 models Colour Indicator: white, yellow, red.
  • AP200 models Colour Indicator and % of the cleaner air measured (based on particulates detected by the Sensor, which is translated to a % of good air quality as defined above).
  • AP300 models Colour Indicator and % of the cleaner air measured (based on particulates detected by the Sensor, which is translated to a % of good air quality as defined above).

Air quality light

  • Coloured light (under the control panel) to give you an at-a-glance reading of your air quality..

Plasma ion
In Auto operation, your air purifier uses plasma ion technology. Although it sounds high tech (and it is) it's safe and natural. Plasma ion operation is automatically turned off during Night Mode.

  • If you press the ION button, you can manually turn plasma ion technology on or off.

Replace filter indicator
Filters are expected to last 6-8 months. When it is time to change the filter, an orange ring will flash around the FILTER ICON.

  • After filter is changed, press and hold the FILTER ICON for 3 seconds to reset.

Caring for your air purifier

Cleaning the unit

  • To remove dust, lightly wipe the unit with a soft, clean cloth.
  • If needed, wipe the unit with a clean damp cloth, then immediately dry with a clean dry cloth.
  • DO NOT immerse the unit in water.

  4. Remove the new filter from its packaging and insert it into the air purifier.
  5. Replace the bottom panel, turning it clockwise to tighten.
  6. Place the air purifier on the floor again and plug it back into the electrical outlet.

Clean the dust sensor every two months to keep your air purifier operating efficiently.

  1. Open the Sensor Access Panel on the rear of the unit.
  2. Clean any dust collected on the sponge.
  3. Close the Sensor Access Panel.

When to turn it off
