Care and Maintenance

MAINTENANCE AND FILTER
REPLACEMENT
• Remember that the efficiency of your air purifier depen-
ds on the condition of the filters. they should therefore
be checked regularly by removing the front panel.
Prefilter (B)
• Check the prefilter regularly.
if large quantities of dust and other impurities have ac-
cumulated, remove and hand wash in hot soapy water.
Dry thoroughly before replacing in the appliance.
• Frequent cleaning of the prefilter helps extend the life of
the hePA filter/active carbon filter.
• When the filter goes from white to dark grey or brown,
it must be replaced.
HEPA filter/active carbon filter (C)
• The life of a HEPA filter/active carbon filter depends on
the operating conditions of the appliance.
in general, considering about 4 hours operation a day at
medium speed with normal quantities of dust/smoke in
the air, it should last about 6 months. however, when the
hePA filter exhausted LeD (X) flashes, it must be replaced.
(see the hePA filter exhausted LeD indicator paragraph).
to replace the hePA filter/active carbon filter, first remo-
ve the prefilter (B), then remove the hePA filter/active
carbon filter (C) and replace with a new one.
• Do not wash the HEPA filter/active carbon filter. When
exhausted, it cannot be regenerated.
• Replacement De'Longhi filters can be obtained from the
manufacturer' s Customer services and household ap-
pliance shops.
Nano-silver filter (D) (certain models only)
• The nano-silver filter (D) has a lifelong duration because
it is protected by the hePA filter. however, regular vacu-
uming is recommended.
Photocatalytic filter with UVC lamp (E)
• It is a permanent filter that requires no maintenance.
IT MUST NEVER BE REMOVED as it acts as protection
for the uVC lamp.
