* Shelf-placement type
A stand for shelf-placement can be used for
installation.
* The number in this technology mark indicates the
approximate number of ions supplied into 1 cm3
of air, which is measured around the center of a
room (with the “High-Density Plasmacluster 25000”
applicable Àoor area), at a height of 1.2m above
the Àoor, at the MAX wind volume setting in air
purifying mode, and when an air puri¿er using the
high-density plasmacluster ion evolving device is
placed close to a wall.

Before operating your new air puri¿er , please read the following
The air puri¿er draws in room air through the air intake, circulates it through a
Pre-Filter, a Deodorizing Filter and a HEPA Filter inside the unit, and then discharges
it through the air outlet. The HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust particles as
small as 0.3 microns that pass through the ¿lter and also helps absorb odors.
The Deodorizing Filter gradually absorbs odors as they pass through the ¿lter.
Some odors absorbed by the ¿lters will break down over time, causing additional
odors. Depending on usage conditions, and especially if the product is used in
environments signi¿cantly more severe than a normal household, these odors may
become noticeable sooner than expected. If these odors persist replace the ¿lters.
NOTE
• The air puri¿er is designed to remove air-suspended dust and the odors they cause. The air
puri¿er is not designed to remove harmful gases such as carbon monoxide contained in cigarette
smoke. The air puri¿er may not completely remove an odor if the source of the odor is still present.

FEATURES
Thank you for purchasing this SHARP Air
Puri¿er. Please read this manual carefully
before using the air puri¿er.
After reading, keep the manual in a
convenient location for future reference.
Unique Combination of Air Treatment
Technologies
Triple Filtration System + Plasmacluster
Ions
TRAPS DUST*
Pre-¿lter traps dust and other large
airborne particles.
DECREASES ODORS
Deodorizing ¿lter absorbs many common
household odors.
REDUCES POLLEN & MOLD*
HEPA ¿lter traps 99.97% of particles as
small as 0.3 microns.
FRESHENS
By emitting a balance of positive and neg-
ative ions, Plasmacluster air treatment is a
natural process.
*When air is circulated through the ¿lter
system.
Sensor technology continuously monitors
air quality, and automatically adjusts
operation based on air purity level.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always follow basic safety precautions when using electrical appliances, including
the following:
WARNING -
Always observe the following to reduce the risk of electrical shock, ¿re, or injury:
• Read all instructions before using the unit.
• Use only a 220 volt outlet.
• Do not use the unit if the power cord or plug is damaged or if the connection to the wall
outlet is loose.
• Periodically remove dust from the plug.
• Do not insert ¿ngers or foreign objects into the air intake or air outlet.
• When removing the power plug, always hold the plug - never pull on the cord.
Failure to do so can cause a short circuit resulting in electrical shock or ¿re.
• Do not remove the plug while your hands are wet.
• Do not place the unit near gas appliances or ¿replaces.
• Always unplug the unit when cleaning the unit, or when the unit is not in use.
Failure to do so can cause a short circuit resulting in electrical shock or ¿re.
• In order to avoid safety hazards, if the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by either the manufacturer, a service agent, a Sharp authorized Service Center or a
similarly quali¿ed service provider.
• Only a Sharp Authorized Service Centre should service this air puri¿er. Contact the nearest
Service Centre for any problems, adjustments, or repairs.
• Do not operate the unit in rooms where aerosol insecticides are present. Do not operate the
unit in rooms where there is oily residue, incense, sparks from lit cigarettes, or chemical fumes
in the air. Do not operate the unit in places where it may get wet, such as a bathroom.
• Be cautious when cleaning the unit. Strong corrosive cleansers can damage the exterior.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory, or mental capabilities, nor by persons with insuf¿cient experience and knowledge of
how to operate the unit, unless they are given proper supervision and instruction on how to
use the unit by a person responsible for their safety. Do not allow children to play with the unit.
NOTE - What to do if the unit interferes with radio or TV reception
If the air puri¿er interferes with radio or television reception, try one or more of the following
measures:
• Adjust or reposition the receiving antenna.
• Increase the distance between the unit and the radio or TV.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that of the radio or TV
receiver.
• Consult the dealer or a quali¿ed radio or TV technician.

CAUTIONS CONCERNING OPERATION
• Do not block the air intake or air outlet.
• Do not place the unit near or on hot objects, such as stoves or heaters, or where it may come
into contact with steam.
• Always operate the unit in an upright position.
• Do not operate the unit without the ¿lters properly installed.
• Do not wash and reuse the HEPA ¿lter and the Deodorizing ¿lter.
Doing so will not improve ¿lter performance and can also cause electric shock or operating
malfunctions.
• Clean the exterior with a soft cloth only.
Do not use volatile liquids or detergents.
Doing so can damage or crack the exterior of the unit.
In addition, doing so can cause sensor malfunctions.
• Keep the unit away from water.
• When cleaning the room with chemicals, please stop the unit and cover with a sheet, etc. so
the chemicals do not adhere to the unit.
• After the room cleaning, please be sure to adequately ventilate the room from chemicals and
gas generated from the chemicals before operating the unit.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
• When using the unit, place it at least 2 meters away from equipment that emits electric
waves, such as televisions or radios, to avoid electrical interference.
• Avoid locations where the sensors are exposed to direct wind.
Doing so can cause the unit to malfunction.
• Avoid locations where furniture, fabrics, or other objects can come in contact with the
unit and interfere with the intake and outtake of air.
• Avoid locations where the unit is exposed to condensation or drastic changes in
temperature. Appropriate room temperature is between 0 – 35 ºC.
• Place the unit on a level and stable surface with suf¿cient air circulation.
When placed on heavy carpet, the unit may vibrate slightly.
• Avoid locations that generate grease or oily smoke.
Doing so can cause the unit exterior to crack and the sensors to malfunction.
• Make sure the wall is strong enough to hold the unit’s weight.
• When wall mounted installation is not possible / When installation on a shelf, use a stand for
shelf-placement [FZ-K51STE] for installation.
For more information, please contact your dealer.
FILTER GUIDELINES
• Follow the instructions in this manual for proper ¿lter care and maintenance.
