HOW SHARP AIR PURIFIER WORKS

An air purifier draws in room air from its air intake, lets the air pass through
a Washable Active Carbon Filter (deodorization filter) and a True HEPA Fil-
ter (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, the True HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust
particles, of as small as 0.3 microns. The Washable Active Carbon Filter
gradually absorbs odor elements as they repeatedly pass through the filter.
(Odor elements are absorbed by 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 severer than household use, this odor may become
strong in a shorter period than expected. In this case, clean the Washable
Active Carbon Filter. (Refer to E-16)
If the odor persists, this is because the odor components absorbed by the
HEPA Filter have come off the filter. Purchase the optional filter FZ-N60HFU
and replace the original filters.
