“Plasmacluster” and “Device of
a cluster of grapes” are trade-
marks of Sharp Corporation.
* The number in this technology mark indicates an
approximate number of ions supplied into air of
1 cm3, which is measured around the center of a
room with the “high-density Plasmacluster 7000”
applicable oor area (at 1.2 m height above the
oor) at the medium wind volume in humidifying
& air purifying mode, or in air purifying mode,
when a humidifier/air purifier or an air purifier
using the high-density Plasmacluster ion
evolving device is placed close to a wall. This
product is equipped with a device corresponding
to this capacity.

Before operating your new air purier, please read the following
The air purier draws in room air through the air intake, circulates it through a Pre-Filter,
a Deodorizing Filter and a HEPA Filter inside the unit, and then discharges it through the
air outlet. The HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust particles as small as 0.3 microns
that pass through the lter and also helps absorb odours.
The Deodorizing Filter gradually absorbs odours as they pass through the lter.
Some odours absorbed by the lters will break down over time, causing additional
odours. Depending on usage conditions, and especially if the product is used in
environments signicantly more severe than a normal household, these odours may
become noticeable sooner than expected. If these odours persist, replace the lters.
(Ref. E-16)
NOTE
• The air purier is designed to remove air-suspended dust and the odours.
The air purier is not designed to remove harmful gases such as carbon monoxide contained in
cigarette smoke.
The air purier may not completely remove an odour if the source of the odour is still present.

ENGLISH
E-3
• Replace the water in the Humidifying Tray daily with fresh tap water, and regularly
clean it (Ref. E-14 and E-15). When the unit is not in use, dispose of the water in
the Humidifying Tray.
Leaving water in the Humidifying Tray can cause mold, bacteria, and bad odours.
In rare cases, such bacteria can be a health hazard.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and

NOTE – What to do if the unit interferes with radio or TV reception
If the air purier interferes with radio or television reception, try one or more of the
following measures:
• Adjust or reposition the receiving antenna.
• Increase the distance between the unit and the radio or TV.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that of the radio or
TV receiver.

CAUTIONS CONCERNING OPERATION
• Do not operate the unit without the lters and the Humidifying Tray properly
installed.
• Keep the unit away from water.
• Do not wash and reuse the HEPA lter and Deodorizing lter.
Doing so will not improve lter performance and can also cause electric shock or

exterior of the unit.
In addition, doing so can cause sensor malfunctions.
• The frequency of descaling maintenance will depend on the hardness of and the
impurities in the water that you use; the harder the water the more often descaling
will be necessary.
