Congratulations on your purchase of Euroair Detox Air Purifier
from Eureka Forbes. We encourage you to read this manual
carefully for the correct usage information. With proper care and
maintenance, you can benefit more from clean, fresh air for many
years of healthy living.
Introduction
Euroair Detox UV Photocatalytic Air Purifier is the latest industry
standard in air purification systems. With the advent of UV
Photocatalytic technology refined by our research and
development team, we have incorporated this latest technology
into our range of air purifiers.
Air purification technology today, is more than the ionizing effect
and HEPA filtration. It encompasses these and also disinfects
and decomposes toxic contaminants besides killing bacteria,
viruses and moulds.
This Air Purifier incorporates the technical features of all other
makes put together. It has a 7-stage filtration and treatment
function and a negative ion generator. The Pre-filter removes
larger pollutants, while the HEPA filter removes 99.97% of
particles as small as 0.3 microns. Two layers of carbon filter
(Carbon impregnated media & Granular in Honeycomb structure),
absorb odour, smog and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)
while the Antimicrobial & Antimildew filter prevents growth of
micro-organisms within. A UV germicidal lamp destroys airborne
bacteria & viruses as the air passes through and the Nano TiO
2
photocatalyst nickel-based filter sterilises & decomposes any
left-over microorganisms. Cleaned air is then returned back into
the room with an abundance of negative ions for natural fresh and
clean air. Indoor air has never been this clean before.

Purification Technology
Pre-filter Filters out large particles, dust mites and pet
dander
Composite filter
HEPA filter
HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter
removes 99.97% of airborne particulates
down to 0.3 microns in diameter. Effectively
filters fine airborne particulates such as
dust, viruses, pollen, etc
Activated
Carbon filter
One of the oldest purification technologies,
activated carbon has a large surface area
owing to its capillary structure. When
synthesised with polyurethane media, it
enables fast and direct absorption of
various gases and VOCs.
Honeycomb
Activated
Carbon filter
Granular Activated Carbon is designed for
capture of VOCs not captured in the earlier
stage. It has a higher porosity and larger
surface area for a longer lifespan.
Antibacterial
Antimildew

Operating Instructions
Remote Control
1. The Remote Control transmitter can be stored in the Remote
Control holder located next to the air discharge outlet.
2. A battery has been installed in the Remote Control transmitter.
During initial setup and use, remove the membrane protection
sheet.
3. Point the transmitter to the receiver at the air purifier to
operate.
4. The maximum distance of use is about 6 meters, depending on
the strength of the battery.
5. When replacing a new battery, always use the same type of
battery.
6. Dispose of the waste battery properly (according to local laws
and regulations).
7. Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
8. Keep the Remote Control transmitter away from water.
Installing the Euroair Detox Air Purifier
1. Place the Air Purifier on a level, stable and dry place.
2. Ensure sufficient space around the unit. Refer to the picture
below

7
3. Remove all the plastic protective wrapping from the filter
before use.
4. Apply caution when removing the front cover, especially for
the first time. Remove the cover by holding the lower
left-&-right side and pull gently towards you. Then lift the cover
upwards to release the top latches.
5. Replace the front cover by hooking the top portion into place,
swing inwards and push gently until the cover snaps into
place.
6. Position the Air Purifier in a place for optimum effectiveness in
capturing contaminants and optimum air circulation pattern.
7. For smoking rooms, place the Air Purifier at a higher level as
smoke rises. Ensure sufficient fresh air ventilation in smoking
rooms as recommended by American Society of Heating,
Refrigeration & Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE). Refer
www.ashrae.org
8. If possible, place the Air Purifier at the opposite end of the air
conditioner to create a better air circulation pattern. This
would assist in better capture and filtration of fine airborne
pollutants.

Care and Maintenance
1. To maintain optimum performance of this appliance, clean
the Pre-filter every month. Frequency of maintenance will
depend on the quality of the air in the room.
2. Be sure to unplug the power cord before cleaning the unit and
never handle the power plug with wet hands.
3. Remove the front cover, Wipe with a damp, soft cloth.
Do NOT use volatile fluids or petrochemicals for cleaning.
For stubborn stains, use mild kitchen clean e r s o r
dishwashing liquid diluted with warm water. Use of strong or
corrosive cleaners may discolour unit permanently. Do not
use hot water.

10
4. Be careful not to damage the plastic tabs as they are
designed for hook-on and to activate the Safety Iinterlock
Switch.
5. Remove the Pre-filter and clean with a vacuum cleaner or
wash with a mild detergent solution. Do NOT use hot water,
do NOT wash in a washing machine or dish washer and do
NOT dry under direct sunlight.
6. The Composite Filter consists of a few layers of different
filters and is made for easy handling. This filter should be
replaced every one to three years depending on the
operating environment. The HEPA Filter Replacement
Indicator will blink at 4,000 hours as a reminder to replace
the filter.
7. Remove the Composite Filter by its handle. Inspect and
replace it with a new Composite Filter if necessary. The HEPA
& Carbon Filters cannot be washed.
8. Place the Pre-filter back onto the Filter Frame and gently
replace it in its original position.
9. Press the HEPA Timer Reset Button (the indicator will revert
to normal and the timer is reset for count again).
10. The UV Germicidal Lamps should be replaced every 15,000
hours under normal operating conditions. The UV Lamp
Replacement Indicator will blink to remind users of this.
Contact an authorised agent or qualified technician for the
replacement.
11. The Nano coated TiO Photocatalytic Filter should be
2
cleaned every six months under normal operating conditions.
Remove any loose particles with a vacuum cleaner and rinse
with water only if necessary. Do NOT wash it in a washing
machine or dish washer. Do NOT dry under direct sunlight.
Ensure that the filter is completely dry before replacing it.

SYMPTOM REMEDY
Power ON,
Unit does
not function
Check if the front cover is installed properly.
Check if the power plug is plugged securely in the
socket.
Check if the battery in the Remote Control unit is
in the correct position. Replace the battery if
necessary.
Check if the Child Lock is ON, deactivate it by
using the button on Remote Control unit.
Unit emits
strange sound
and vibrates
Check if the Air Purifier is placed on a level
surface.
Check for foreign objects obstructing the fan.
Smoke and
odour are not
removed
Check if the filters are dirty. Clean or replace the
filters.
If the unit is placed in a location where airflow is
obstructed, relocate the unit closer to the source
of pollution.
Unit emits
odour
The air could have been contaminated at the time
when the unit was last unplugged. Let the unit run
for some time.
The filter could be contaminated with some
offensive VOC's or gases during the last use.
If not due for replacement, continue to run the
unit in a ventilated room. The UV Photocatalytic
process should eradicate this.
Sometimes, new units may carry some smell as
caused by the fresh coating of the TiO filter.
