4) Remote Control Display
4.1) Reading the display data
To ensure the accuracy of the measurements, please let the remote
and the main unit run one minute before reading the data.
a. PM2.5 particles
The big number on the left side of the Remote Control Display screen
corresponds to the PM2.5 level, measured in μg/m3.
PM stands for “Particulate Matter”and corresponds to fine particle
pollution, a mix of solid particles and liquid droplets present in the air.
Some particles are large enough to be visible with the naked eye,
such as dust or smoke. But many particles are much smaller than
that. PM2.5 corresponds to fine inhalable particles with a diameter of
2.5 micrometres and smaller. That’s 30 times smaller than the
average human hair!
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that PM2.5 do
not exceed 10 μg/m3 annual mean, or 25 μg/m3 24-hour mean.
Below are the colours and grades corresponding to each data range:
Note: the colours for PM2.5 are not displayed on the Remote Control
Display but only on the air quality indication bar on the main unit,
when the remote is turned on. When the remote is turned off, the
indication bar will also be turned off.
b. Chemical Pollution (formaldehyde)
The small, coloured number in the centre of the Remote Control
Display screen corresponds to formaldehyde levels, measured in
mg/m3. Formaldehyde is the most common form of indoor chemical
pollution. New furniture, clothes and home improvement materials
continuously release formaldehyde in your indoor air for as long as

12
two years. The WHO established a safe level of exposure at 0.10
mg/m3 (0.08 ppm) for any 30-min period.
Below are the colours and grades corresponding to each data range:
Note: the Formaldehyde Sensor data may become inaccurate or
corrupted when in presence of interfering gases. For more
information, refer to the “Formaldehyde Sensor Interference Gases
Table” in the Appendix and to paragraph 4) of section VII –Safety
Instructions.
4.2) Pairing
Pairing between the main unit and the Remote Control Display was
done in the factory. If for any reason, you need to pair your unit with
your Remote Control Display again, please use the following
instructions:
1. Turn the Remote Control Display on. The main unit should be
plugged in but off.
2. Long press the “UV” button. A 20-second countdown screen will
appear.
3. Double-click the “ON/OFF” button of the main unit. Make sure to
truly “double click” and not to simply click twice in a row.
4. The Remote Control Display screen will show “cor” if the pairing
is successful. If pairing failed, the screen will show “Err”, in which
case you start the procedure again and repeat steps 1-4.
4.3) Resetting the Remote Control Display
If the Remote Control Display is not behaving properly, please reset
it. Switch the reset button (located at the back of the terminal, see
Figure 4) to the RESET position, the screen will turn off. Then switch
the reset button back to the ON position. The terminal has been
reset. To turn it back on, long press the ON/OFF button located at the
front of the terminal.

III –Technology Overview
1) The AIRVIA difference
Air purifiers are used to clean and purify the air. They act both
preventively and curatively.
AIRVIA Medical air purifiers are high-end products that combine all
the best existing filtration technologies. This allows them to achieve
unparalleled efficiency while ensuring a broad spectrum of action.
The CADR (“Clean Air Delivery Rate”) is the benchmark indicator
used to assess the effectiveness of a purifier. It measures the volume
of air cleaned in a given time. At over 500m3/h, the AERO 100 is one
of the best on the market. It can clean the air in a space of 100 m2 in
just a few minutes. The AERO 100 comes with several speeds to
adapt to all spaces and all uses.
Its innovative design is directly inspired by aircraft turbines to ensure
optimal air mixing. Its cylindrical shape makes it possible to have
360° air suction and a vertical discharge system so as to efficiently
mix the air.
In addition to this in-depth action, our purifiers target a very large
number of pollutants. They filter more than 99.97% of all particles,
including fine particles down to 0.01 microns. Our products have a
triple function: fight germs, fight allergens, and provide protection
against irritating, polluting and toxic particles. They completely
eliminate airborne germs (bacteria, viruses, spores, mould), allergens
(mites, pollens, dust, animal hair) and smoke (tobacco, fire,
barbecue) as well as many gases, toxic particles (formaldehyde,
VOC, fine particles, exhaust pipes) and bad odours.
The AERO 100 works with our Remote Control Display to give you
real-time information on the air quality (chemical and particulate
pollution levels) of your space.

14
2) Filtration technologies
AIRVIA Medical air purifiers combine 8 different filtration technologies
to filter all toxic particles without rejecting any ozone.
The filtration process consists of a multi-layer filter with 6 different
technologies, a UV lamp, and an ionizer. You will find the description
of each of these functions below.
Multi-layer filter:
- Prefilter: traps all large particles (larger than one micron) such as
hair and dust.
- Bamboo fibre: bamboo is a natural material with strong antibacterial
properties. Its complex microstructure also gives it excellent particle
filtration properties.
- Lysozyme: a molecule which is part of the immune system of most
animals. It provides a natural and effective action against microbes by
attacking their cell walls.
- HEPA filter: HEPA is an acronym which designates a High
Efficiency Particulate Air filter. This is the guarantee that our devices
are able to filter, in a single pass, more than 99.97% of particles with
a diameter greater than or equal to 0.01 microns. HEPA is the
benchmark certification on the market, and it is used in medical,
pharmaceutical and various advanced industries. We also use one of
the most efficient versions: HEPA H13.
- Activated carbon: a carbonaceous material with a porous structure,
which gives it a high fixing and retention property. Very effective
against fine particles pollution. Used in cigarette filters, aquariums
and fallout shelters.
- Photocatalysis: a chemical reaction activated by the UV lamp which
produces molecules which reacts with the pollution particles present
in the air and degrades them.
Other technologies:
- UV lamp: powerful disinfection method against microorganisms.
- Ionization: the only “active” filtration method. It consists of the
diffusion of negative ions (anions) in the air. Due to their polarity,
these ions are highly reactive and will target pollution particles of
positive polarity. They will either cause them to disintegrate or fall to

15
the ground by weighing them down, thus ensuring your lungs are
protected.
AIRVIA Medical uses a particularly powerful version of this
technology to generate 20 million particles per cm3 at outlet, 6.3
million at 1 meter distance and 0.5 million at 3 meters distance. The
total range of action is 5 meters.
Negative ions are commonly associated with a feeling of well-being
due to their presence in natural environments such as mountains,
forests and waterfalls. Many health benefits have also been reported
according to preliminary studies.

V –Maintenance
Turn off and unplug your device before any maintenance
operation. Aside from replacing the filter, non-professionals are
not allowed to disassemble the device in order to avoid electric
shock.
1) Cleaning the Air Purifier (once a month)
Do not clean any part of the device with abrasive, corrosive or
flammable cleaners such as cleanser, alkaline detergent, diluent,
bleach, alcohol, gasoline, or organic solvents.
The negative ion function of the air purifier can generate a
small static electricity effect which can lead to dust accumulation.
It is recommended to clean the outside of the unit once a month.
With the power supply disconnected, wipe the device with a dry
and soft cloth, a microfiber cloth or a feather duster. Do not
expose to water or any other liquid to prevent it from penetrating
into the device, where it could cause potential risks and
damages.
Use a soft brush to clean the air inlet and outlet.
The 8 negative ion discharge outlets are located at the centre of
the top cover, as shown in Figure 8. These outlets easily attracts
dust. Please wipe them using a soft cloth or microfiber cloth.
Remember not to touch the negative ion discharge outlets,
otherwise it will affect the normal operation!

Figure 8 –Location of the negative ion discharge outlets
2) Maintenance of Filter (once a month)
The lifetime of the filter depends on the levels of air pollution in
the environment you use it in. The recommended lifetime of the
filter is one year but this will vary according to the aforementioned
conditions. You will quickly notice when it is time to change the
filter: the PM2.5 and chemical pollution levels (as shown on the
Remote Control Display) will either show a large value or drop
very slowly, even with the main unit running. When saturated, the
filter might also start emitting a dusty odour.
You can extend the lifetime of the filter by regularly cleaning it, as
described below. We recommend doing so once a month. The
filter should never be washed or exposed to water. Remove
the filter from the main unit, as shown in the paragraph 3) below.
Use a brush or a vacuum cleaner to rid the filter of the larger

19
particles. You can restore part of the filter performance and
extend its lifetime by exposing it to direct sunlight for a few
hours.
If the filter is exposed to high humidity for a long time (such as
during prolonged rainy weather), you should take it out, clean it
and expose it to direct sunlight for at 8 hours. If you fail to do so,
the filter might get saturated by the accumulation of water
molecules and stop efficiently cleaning you indoor air pollution.
3) Replacement of Filter (once a year)
To ensure proper performances, you should only buy filters
provided by AIRVIA Medical.
The “Filter” is actually a composite filter made of several layers
each made of a different filtration technology. Refer to the
Technical Characteristics table for more information. As a result,
you only need to replace this one filter to completely restore all
the filtration functions, except for the negative ion and the UV.
The Negative Ions function does not ever need to be replaced.
The UV lamp lasts 20,000 hours.
Step 1: Turn off the unit
and unplug the unit. Turn
the unit upside down.
Step 2: Remove the two screws on
the center part of the bottom cover
(see 1and 2on the drawing). Turn the
bottom cover counterclockwise with
force using the cross-shaped handle.

20
Step 5: Turn the unit right side up and plug it in. It’s ready!
4) Maintenance of Remote Control Display
Make sure to regularly charge the Remote Control Display if you
do not use it for a prolonged period of time. We recommend fully
charging at least once a month to prevent any battery damage
due to excessive discharge.
Charging the Remote Control Display with a power adapter not
provided by the manufacturer may cause damage to it.
Step 3: Use both hands to slowly
slide the old filter out.
Step 4: Take the new filter out of
its plastic bag and use both hands
to slowly slide it in. Place the
bottom cover back, rotate it
clockwise until the black arrows
align (or the brass bolts). Put the
two screws on the center part of
the bottom cover (see 1and 2on
the drawing) back in place.
