FEATURES
SHARP’s Original Air Disinfecting Technology.
Plasmacluster HD helps to improve the air quality by inactivating
airborne mold*1, viruses*2, allergens*3,and adhering odor*4 .
Release Plasmacluster Ions.
1
Plasmacluster Ions are the
same positive and negative
ions found in nature. The
ions are surrounded by
water molecules, and are
released into the air.
2
Attack Airborne microbes.
The ions form hydroxide
radicals that are highly
oxidizing only when they
adhere to the surfaces of
mold and viruses. They
instantly remove the
hydrogen from the surface
proteins, breaking them
down.
3
Return to the air as water.
The hydroxide (OH) radicals
combine with hydrogen (H)
to form water (H2O) which
returns to the air.
Testing and verification Organization.

• While IG-A20A and IG-A40A can inactivate suspended viruses and
other contaminants, it cannot create a completely sterile environ-
ment. SHARP does not guarantee its ability to prevent microbial in-
fection.
• To enable stable emission of high-density Plasmacluster ions, the
Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit mounted in IG-A20A and IG-A40A
have to be replaced periodically*.
* Replacement is required approximately every 2 years (17,500 hours) when operated
24 hours a day. IG-A20A and IG-A40A will stop operating after about 26 months
(19,000 hours) if the Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit is not replaced.

CAUTIONS CONCERNING OPERATION:
• DO NOT block the air intake and/or air outlet.
• DO NOT use the unit near or on hot objects, such as stoves or heaters or where it may come into
contact with steam.
• Always operate the main unit in an upright position.
• Clean the exterior with a soft cloth only, otherwise the main unit surface may be damaged or
cracked.
• Keep the main unit away from water.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES:
• Place at least 2m away from equipment utilizing electric waves such as televisions or radios to
avoid electrical interference when using the unit.
• Avoid using in locations where the unit is exposed to condensation or drastic temperature changes.
Appropriate room temperature is between 0-35ºC.
• Avoid locations where grease or oily smoke is generated, otherwise the main unit surface may
crack as a result.
NOTE - Radio or TV Interference:
If this Plasmacluster Ion Generator may cause interference to radio or television reception,
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the distance between the unit and radio/TV receiver.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
WARNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, 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 the connection to the wall outlet is
loosened.
• Periodically remove dust from the plug.
• DO NOT insert fingers or foreign objects into the air intake or air outlet.
• Always hold the plug and never pull on the cord when removing the power plug.
Electric shock and/or fire from a short circuit may result.
• DO NOT remove the plug when your hands are wet.
• DO NOT use the unit near gas appliances or fireplaces.
• If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, a Sharp
authorized Service Center or qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
• Be cautious when cleaning the unit.
Strong corrosive cleansers may damage the exterior.
• DO NOT use it in the areas where the unit may get wet.
• DO NOT use spray products near the unit.
• DO NOT use in the rooms, containing oil component, incense, cigarettes’ sparks, and chemical
fumes.
• DO NOT operate when using aerosol insecticides or in rooms where there is oily residue, incense,
sparks from lit cigarettes, chemical fumes in the air, or in locations where the unit may get wet,
such as bathroom.
• Only a Sharp authorized Service Center should service this Plasmacluster Ion Generator.
Contact the nearest Service Center for any problems, adjustments, or repairs.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sen-
sory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given su-
pervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

The discharged air has odor.
WHAT TO DO
Make sure to put in the plug.
Approx 2 years and 2 months (approx.

Replace with a new Plasmacluster Ion
Generating Unit. See page E-8,9.10.
If all lights keep flashing, replace with new
Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit. See page E-8,9.10.
• Dust may block the filter, clean the filter.
Failure
Unplug and ask the store you purchased or
Sharp Sevice Center.
The Plasmacluster Ion Generator releases
a small trace of ozone which may produce
odor. This is not detrimental to health.
