Please read before operating your new Air Purifier
The air purifier draws in room air from its air intake, lets the air pass through a
Pre-Filter, an Active Carbon Filter (deodorization filter) and a True HEPA Filter
(dust collection filter) inside of the unit, then discharges the air from its air
outlet. The air purifier unit repeats this process by moving its internal fan.
As air passes through, a new True HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust
particles, of as small as 0.3 microns. The Active Carbon Filter gradually absorbs
odor elements as they repeatedly pass through the filter. (Odor elements are
absorbed by the True HEPA Filter as well.)
Some odor ingredients absorbed by the filters may become separated and
may be discharged through the air outlet and result in additional odor. De-
pending on the usage environment, especially when the product is used in a
condition significantly more severe than normal household use, this odor may
become strong in a shorter period than expected.
If the odor persists, then the filters are fully expended and it is necessary to
purchase the optional replacement filter kit FZ-R45HFU.
NOTE
• The air purifier is designed to remove air-suspended dust and odor, but not harmful gases (for exam-
ple, carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke). If the odor sources still exist, it cannot com-
pletely remove the odor. (for example, odors from construction materials and pet odors).
• It is suggested to open the window a bit when you are smoking in order to facilitate ventilation.
