TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
• De’Longhipuriersincorporatethelatesttechnological
features for home air ltration;
• Theairistakeninthroughthefrontpanel;
• Thecontaminatedairpassesthroughawashableprel-
ter which removes large impurities such as coarse dust,
hair, etc. The partially ltered air is then passed through
a long-lasting HEPA lter with a large ltering surface,
easily recognisable by the special pleated paper. This
HEPA (High Eciency Particulate Air) lter removes im-
purities down to a size of 0.3 microns, ltering all types
of particle including tobacco, house dust and pollen;
• The air is then passed through a black active carbon
lter which removes a variety of pollutants and un-
pleasant odours such as smoke, ne dust particles and
formaldehyde. Some models have an active nano-silver
lter against most pathogens (Staphylococcus aureus
and Escherichia coli) yeasts and moulds. Moreover, the
appliance is equipped with a lter with photocatalytic
titanium dioxide with a UVC lamp, which can eliminate
a variety of bacteria and toxic gases.
• Thepuriedairisreturnedtotheroomthroughthetop
grille. The upward ow of air improves air circulation
in the environment, without generating irritating cur-
rents.
• Whenactive,theindependentlycontrolledioniserrele-
ases a cloud of benecial negative ions into the room
together with the outow of ltered air, allowing the
removal of dust particles, pollen, cigarette smoke and
car exhaust fumes.
• Oncontactwiththenegativeions,theparticlesofdust
suspended in the air are negatively charged and can
combine with the positively charged particles to form
larger particles which will then be ltered by the pu-
rier. The negative particles are attracted by positively
charged surfaces, such as the oor or wall.
• Negativeionsimprovetheionbalanceintheatmosphe-
re, as positive charges generally predominate. The ioni-
zer therefore helps reduce the static electricity created
by the presence of rugs, carpet, televisions and compu-
ter screens.

USE
Read these instructions before using the appliance.
• Unpack the air purier and place on a stable at surface
so that the air intake in the front panel and air outlet
(top grille) are not blocked. A good position in the room
might be at least a metre from the wall.
• Remove the front panel (g. 3). Inside the purier you
will nd the prelter (B) and HEPA lter/active carbon
lter (C)and the nano-silver lter (D) (certain models
only) packed, depending on the model, in a plastic bag.
And the photocatalytic lter (E) xed to the air intake
grill.
• Removethelter(s)(dependingonthemodel)fromthe
bag, as shown in g. 2, then place them in the following
order: nano lter, with the silver side adhering to the
appliance, HEPA lter with the black active carbon side
resting directly on and adhering to the nano-silver, then
the prelter, slotting it in place as shown in g. 4.
• Replacethefrontpanel;
• Aftermakingsurethevoltageinyourhomecorresponds
to the voltage indicated on the appliance, plug the ap-
pliance into the mains socket.
• Removetheprotectivelmfromthecontrolpanel.
• TurntheapplianceonbytouchingtheON/OFFicon(O).
The corresponding icon lights up and the appliance co-
mes on automatically at minimum speed. The AUTO icon
(Q) ashes and the air quality LED indicators (G) light up
orange for 3 minutes. This time is necessary for the ap-
pliance to detect air quality, then the AUTO icon becomes
steady and the air quality LED indicators (G) change co-
lour depending on the air quality detected and also the
fan speed changes accordingly:
BAD AIR QUALITY:
orange + max. fan speed
SATISFACTORY AIR QUALITY:
green + med. fan speed
GOOD AIR QUALITY:
blue + min. fan speed
Please note: the change in colour of the air quality in-
dicator (G) is always sequential:
ORANGE <-----> GREEN <-----> BLUE
Please note: to vary the set fan speed, touch the icon
(P) corresponding to the required fan speed (Min/Med/
Max).
• TheLEDcorrespondingtotheselectedspeedlightsup.
Please note: When the appliance starts after having
been turned o, using a light pressure on the ON/OFF,
it starts with the last function set with the exception of
the auto-o function ).
“AUTO” operation (Q)
Tap the “AUTO” icon, the appliance independently decides the
fan speed according to the air quality detected (min, med,
max).
Ioniser (R)
For the release of negative ions into the environment through
puried air, touch the ioniser icon (R).The corresponding LED
lights up.
Auto-o (T)
This function can be used to turn the appliance o automati-
cally after a given period of time.
With the appliance on, touch the auto-o icon (T) to select
how many hours should elapse before the appliance goes o
(1-2-4-8 hours), the corresponding LED comes on.

AQS (S)
Tap the AQS icon (Air Quality System) to enable or disable
the air quality LED indicators (G). This function is particularly
useful if you want to completely eliminate the light source,
during night operation for example.
Note: the AQS icon enables or disables the LED indi-
cators only while the air quality detection system is
always active.
HEPA lter exhausted LED (X)
When the lter LED (X) ashes, the HEPA lter/active carbon
lter must be replaced. Proceed as follows:
After unplugging the appliance from the mains socket, remo-
ve the front panel (A) and the prelter (B), then remove the
HEPA lter/active carbon lter (C) and replace with a new one
obtainable from De’Longhi’s authorised Customer Services.
Replace the lters in the correct sequence as described above,
then put the front panel back.
At this point, turn the appliance back on and reset as follows:
• insertaneobjectintotheholeintheresetbutton(U)
and press until the ashing LED comes on steadily. Rele-
ase the button. After about 5 seconds, the lter LED (X)
goes o.
Please note: Before performing cleaning and mainte-
nance, always unplug the appliance from the mains
socket.
Please note: Pressing the reset button (U) for less
than 3 seconds activates/deactivates the icon tone.
Please note: The appliance has a safety microswitch
(Y) which turns the appliance o whenever the front
panel (A) is removed.
Cable compartment (M)
The appliance has a practical cable compartment (M), useful
for storing the cable when the appliance is not in use.
CLEANING THE APPLIANCE
Clean the outside of the appliance with a soft slightly damp
cloth to remove dust, dirt or ngerprints. The front panel and
prelter can be removed and washed separately in hot soapy
water (they are NOT dishwasher safe). Dry the components
thoroughly before putting them back in the appliance. The
top grille can be cleaned with a soft brush.
Do not clean the appliance by immersing in water.

• Rememberthattheeciencyofyourairpurierdepen-
ds on the condition of the lters. They should therefore
be checked regularly by removing the front panel.

• Checktheprelter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.

• ThelifeofaHEPAlter/activecarbonlter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 lter exhausted LED (X) ashes, it must be replaced.
(See the HEPA lter exhausted LED indicator paragraph).
To replace the HEPA lter/active carbon lter, rst remo-
ve the prelter (B), then remove the HEPA lter/active
carbon lter (C) and replace with a new one.
