Frequently Asked Questions
What will happen if cleaning is
not performed?
If a lot of dust adheres to the HEPA filter,
performance may deteriorate remarkably.
Will all cigarette smoke be removed?
The air purifier can remove nicotine and other particles, but the room needs to be ventilated occasionally
because carbon monoxide (CO), a harmful substance contained in cigarette smoke, cannot be removed.
Furthermore, when a lot of cigarettes are smoked, cigarette odor may be emitted from the unit.
Operation is performed continuously with maximum air
volume.
When smoking cigarettes, cleaning, and making beds
The air volume is changed automatically depending on the
amount of contamination and odor.
Operation is performed continuously with a constant air
volume.

The above is the diagnostic method for when the motor is isolated.
Regardless of the rotation state, do not test the motor when the connectors are connected.
2. Dust is not
collected (air
volume is low).
3. Deodorizing is
not performed
(deodorizing
performance is
low).
4. The odor monitor
does not work.
5. The PM2.5
monitor or dust
monitor does not
work.
6. The cleaning
mechanism locks
up.
Is an operation mode lamp
or air volume lamp lit when
youturnONthe“On/O”
switch?
Check the continuity of the current fuse.
Check the connection cables and connectors
of the display operation circuit board and
power supply control circuit board.
Check the output voltage at the connector
P4 of the power supply control circuit
boardafterturningONthe“On/O”switch.
If 310 VDC is not output normally between
pins 1 and 4, 15 VDC is not output normally
between pins 6 and 4, and 1 to 6 VDC is
not output normally between pins 7 and
4, replace the power supply control circuit
board. If the voltages are output normally,
replace the blower motor (pin 4 is GND).
