CONTROL PANEL

Power Button

Fan Speed Settings
Select fan speed or AUTO mode. In AUTO mode, purifier automatically adjusts fan speed based on air quality readings from SensorPod.
(AUTO mode only available when purifier is paired with SensorPod and receiving signal.)

Dimmer Mode
Display illumination turns off (for use while sleeping) without sacrificing the effectiveness of the purifier. Simply press the button again to bring back all display features.

Timer Mode

When 1 indicator is on, simply hold Reset button for 3 seconds to reset that indicator. When 2+ indicators are on, tap the Reset button to select the correct indicator (selected indicator will blink) before holding 3 seconds to reset that indicator.
(See "CARE & MAINTENANCE" for replacement instructions. Follow above Reset button instructions after replacing filter.)

AIR QUALITY DISPLAY

Real-time Feedback
The enhanced SensorPod evaluates the condition of your air by measuring both particulate matter (PM1.0, PM2.5, PM10) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It calculates the overall air quality using a proprietary algorithm that is reactive to genuine increases in pollutants without overreacting to someone entering the room or settling into the couch.
The illuminated, color-coded display communicates good, moderate or poor air quality and a numeric value provides a greater level of detail.
In AUTO mode, the purifier automatically adjusts the fan speed in response to these air quality readings.

TruSens utilizes the Air Quality Index (1-500) created by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

TRUSENS APP

The TruSens app allows you to conveniently control your TruSens air purifier from your smart device, whether you are across the room or across town.
You'll have the same control and real-time air quality feedback as on the Purifier. You'll also find historical tracking of your indoor air quality and information on your local outdoor air quality, and be able to set a schedule for the purifier. The app will notify you when it's time to replace your filter or UV bulb, and you can easily reorder through the app.

Download the TruSens App from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.

NAMING TIPS

• When using your purifier's voice control feature, you will say the purifier's name every time you issue a command; to prevent confusion, each purifier should have a unique name.
• Name your purifier something easy and short (such as "Bedroom" or "Kitchen").
• Do not include "purifier" in the name. The Alexa app allows the renaming of a purifier, but we do not recommend it.

FAQ & TROUBLESHOOTING

Pairing SensorPod and Purifier
The SensorPod communicates with the purifier using radio frequency signals and will be paired on the production line and ready for use when you open the box. In the rare event that the signal is interrupted, the purifier's sensor indicator light will blink. You can repair the connection in just a few easy steps.

1. Unplug the SensorPod.
2. HOLD the Power Button on the purifier for 3 seconds; you should hear two chimes.
3. Plug in the SensorPod and press and HOLD the pairing button underneath the SensorPod for 5-7 seconds (Fig. O).
   
4. The connection is established when the purifier's sensor indicator light is lit with no blinking and the air quality indicators turn on.
