7 Troubleshooting
This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter with the
appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem with the information below, contact
the Consumer Care Center in your country.
Problem Possible solution
The appliance
does not work
even though it is
plugged in..
•Check if the front cover is properly installed.
•The filter replacement code has been displaying on the
screen but you have not replaced the corresponding filter
yet. The appliance will be locked if you keep using the
expired filter. In this case, replace the filter and reset the
filter lifetime counter.
The appliance
does not work
even though it is
switched on.
•Check if the packing materials for the fitlers are removed.
•The appliance is working but the buttons are not
responsive. Check if the child lock is on.
•The filter replacement code has been on continuously but
you have not replaced the corresponding filter, and the
appliance is now locked. In this case, replace the filter and
reset the filter lifetime counter.
The airow that
comes out of
the air outlet
is signicantly
weaker than
before.
•The pre-filter is dirty. Clean the pre-filter (see chapter
"Cleaning").
The air quality
does not improve,
even though the
appliance has
been operating for
a long time.
•One of the filters has not been placed in the appliance.
Make sure that all filters are properly installed in the
following order, starting with the innermost filter:
1) NanoProtect filter HEPA Series 3 (FY3433);
2) NanoProtect filter AC (FY3432); 3) pre-filter.
•The air quality sensor is wet. The humidity level in your
room is high and causes condensation. Make sure that the
air quality sensor is clean and dry (see chapter "Cleaning").
The color of the air
quality light always
stays the same.
•The air quality sensor is dirty. Clean the air quality sensor
(see chapter "Cleaning").

14 EN
Problem Possible solution
The appliance
produces a strange
smell.
•The filter may produce smell after being used for a
while because of the absorption of indoor gases. It’s
recommended that you reactivate the filter by putting it in
direct sunlight for repeated use. If odor still exists, replace
the filter.
•If the air purifier produces a burnt odor, switch OFF and
unplug from the electrical outlet. Contact Consumer Care
Center in your country.
The appliance is
extra loud.
•If the appliance is too loud, you can change the fan speed
to a lower fan speed level. When using the appliance in a
bedroom at night, choose the sleep mode.
The appliance still
indicates that I
need to replace a
lter, but I already
did.
•Perhaps you did not reset the filter lifetime counter. Plug
in the appliance, touch to switch on the appliance, and
touch and hold the reset button for 3 seconds.
Error codes "E1",
or "E2" displays on
the screen.
•The appliance has malfunctions. Contact the Consumer
Care Center in your country.
Which App I should
download?
•Please download and install the 'Air Matters' app from the
App Store or Google Play.

15EN
English
Problem Possible solution
The Wi-Fi setup is
not successful.
•If the router your purifier is connected to is dual – band
and currently it is not connecting to a 2.4GHz network,
please switch to another band of the same router (2.4GHz)
and try to pair your purifier again. 5Ghz networks are not
supported.
•Web authentication networks are not supported.
•Check if the purifier is within range of the Wi-Fi router. You
can try to locate the air purifier closer to the Wi-Fi router.
•Check if the network name is correct. The network name is
case-sensitive.
•Check if the Wi-Fi password is correct. The password is
case-sensitive.
•Retry the setup with the instructions in section ‘Set up the
Wi-Fi connection when the network has changed’.
•The Wi-Fi connectivity can be interrupted by electromagnetic
or other interferences. Keep the appliance away from other
electronic devices that may cause interferences.
