INFORMATION ON INDOOR POLLUTANTS
VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) –VOC’s come from motor vehicle exhausts, gasoline vapour, pollutants such as
formaldehyde, ammonia and many other common and chemical solvents such as paints and glues. They can also be
a by-product of mould growth. VOC’s cause irritation to the eyes and/or nose as well as causing headaches, nausea,
and can even lead to damage to the central nervous system. Pressed wood furniture, newly decorated rooms, paint
and cleaning solvents are common sources of VOC’s.
MOLD / FUNGUS –These can affect our respiratory system and cause allergic reactions, like a runny nose, eye and
throat irritation, headaches, fatigue and aggravation of asthma. Other indoor pollutants include - bacteria, viruses,
dust mites and pollen.
Emissions from electronic office equipment –Many studies, including those from EPA and the University of
California Berkeley, have reported that emissions from office equipment such as computers and printers include
VOC’s, ultra-fine particles and ozone. These emissions have been proven to have a negative effect on the health of
many people.
Using HEPA and Carbon Activated filters, Plasma Ionization, VOC Filter, TIO2 photo catalyst and UV light.
An effective HEPA filter is absolutely necessary to remove particles, even at a microscopic level; it ensures that the
particles are not spread. A Plasma Ioniser will sterilise the air and reduce bacterial growth.
UV light dramatically improves Indoor Air Quality by destroying airborne bio-contaminants such as viruses and
bacteria which are a leading cause infections and discomfort. Ultraviolet air treatment systems have been used for
more than 50 years in hospitals and various other healthcare industries but with the advent of small highly efficient
UV Lamps the technology now finds its place in the domestic environment.
Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) is achieved when UV light rays are combined with a TiO2 (titanium oxide) coated
filter. Your ElectriQ air purifier features an advanced VOC Filter coated with TiO2. This process of photo catalytic
oxidation creates hydroxyl radicals and super-oxide ions, which are highly reactive electrons that react with other
elements in the air such as bacteria and especially VOCs. Once bound together, a chemical reaction takes place
between the super-charged particle and the pollutant, effectively burning ("oxidizing") the pollutant. This breaks the
pollutant down into harmless carbon dioxide and water molecules, making the air even cleaner.
The antibacterial activated carbon is a natural material biosynthesized from walnut shell, the adsorption area of
activated carbon is very large. The activated carbon filter will absorb unpleasant odours and will help decomposing
VOCs when combined with the TIO2 filter and UV light.

OPERATION
BEFORE FIRST USE
Installing or replacing the Filters
The EAP400D uses a combination of two filter
units, which should be installed in the air
purifier before operating it for the first time.
When inserting the filters the “AIR FLOW” Label
should be pointing outwards.
INSTALLING AND REPLACING THE FILTERS
1. Unplug the unit from the socket.
2. Facing the right hand side remove the side cover from top to bottom.
3. Remove both of the filters from inside of the unit.
4. Before installing the new filters, ensure the protective plastic wrap has
been removed.
5. Insert both new filters into the unit. The carbon filter should be inserted
first, followed by the HEPA filter, both with the “AIRFLOW” labels
pointing outwards, as shown in the diagram below
6. Reattach the side cover of the unit and push it back securely it into
place.
7. The device should not be turned on until the filter compartment cover
is pushed back into place and secured
8. If the fan speed light continues to flash, hold the “Ioniser/UV” button to
register that a new filter has been installed

FILTER REPLACEMENT REMINDER INDICATOR
When the “Speed” indicator is flashing, this indicates that the installed filters are coming to the end of their
useful life and should be replaced.
Once the filters have been replaced following the steps in “Installing and replacing the filters”, hold down the“
Timer”button for five seconds, until the unit bleeps to register the new filters.
CLEAN OR REPLACE THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
1. If necessary wipe the inside of the filter holder with a dry cloth.
2. After maintaining or replacing the filters reverse the above disassembly procedure and return the unit
to original operation mode.
3. Do not connect the unit to a socket before is fully assembled and never operate it without a filter
inside.

DIAGRAM OF THE AIR PURIFIER
ACTIVATED CARBON: Absorb formaldehyde, benzene and other noxious gases.
PHOTO CATALYST: When photo catalyst titanium dioxide (TiO2) absorbs Ultraviolet (UV) radiation, it
will produce a chemical reaction that help oxidise and remove VOCs, odours, and kill germs.
Note: for maximum efficiency the UV lamp cover is coated with TiO2
VOC / ANTIMICROBIAL: Captures Pollutants and mould spores
HEPA: Captures dust, smoke, pollen and other allergens.
UV LIGHT: Destroys micro-organisms such as germs, viruses, bacteria and fungi (such as mould).
Ion: Negative ion improves the air quality by combining with dust or reacting with odour molecules
attached on the wall. Plenty of negative ions exist in natural surroundings such as waterfalls or
forests. In this mode, negative ions bring the room air close to this natural environment.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Always shut off the unit and unplug from the mains before cleaning or performing any maintenance.
When it is not in use for long periods it is advisable to remove the plug from the power socket. Do
not use chemical solvents (such as benzene, alcohol or gasoline) as they may cause irreversible
damage to the unit.
Clean the external case
Only use tepid water and a mild detergent on soft cloth. Do not use bleach or abrasives. Do not splash water
directly onto the main unit. Avoid wetting the power connection port. Doing so may cause an electrical shock
and can lead to the insulation to deteriorate, or cause the unit to rust.
Clean the filter and the filter holding area
Hoover the filters with a gentle brush every 2-3 weeks or more often if used in a dustier
environment. Please make sure the filter is not damaged during the process and replace in such
occurrence. Wipe with a dry cloth the filter holding area if necessary.
Front (VOC and HEPA) Back (Carbon and Photo catalyst)
NOTE: The filters are not washable, and should be replaced if damaged or clogged.
Clean the filter cover and clean air outlet Use water and a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or abrasives. Do
not spray water inside the unit. If the clean air outlet grilles get soiled easily, use a vacuum attachment or soft
brush to clean. If the filter cover is dirty hoover it, if it is heavily soiled wash it with warm soapy water and dry
thoroughly before reinserting it in the unit.
Note: Do not assemble the unit and power it before all the parts are completely dry. Any other maintenance
than what is described in this user manual must be only performed by the service centre.
