Thank you for purchasing this SHARP Plasmacluster Ion Generator.
Please read this manual carefully before using the product.
This manual should be kept in a safe place for handy reference.
• While the product can remove suspended viruses and other
contaminants, it cannot create a completely sterile environment.
SHARP does not guarantee its ability to prevent microbial
infection.
• To enable stable emission of high-density Plasmacluster ions,
the Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit mounted in the product
will need to be replaced periodically*.
• The product is designed for ordinary passenger cars with DC 12
V batteries. It cannot be used in vehicles with DC 24 V batteries
(buses, trucks, etc.).
* Replacement is required approximately every 6 years (17,500 hours) when
operated 8 hours a day. the product will stop operating after about 6 years
and 6 months (19,000 hours) if the Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit is
not replaced.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please read these instructions carefully before using this product.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
be followed, including the following:
WARNING - To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire or injury :
• Do not operate switches while driving. (Doing so could lead to
accidents.)
• Do not install the product in places where it could hamper visibility
to the front, driving operations, or in places where it could be
dangerous to passengers. (Doing so could lead to accidents or
injury.)
• Do not put in places exposed to direct sunlight. (Doing so could
cause warping or malfunction.)
• This product is designed exclusively for use in vehicles with 12 V
batteries. Do not use it in other vehicles. Do not use the product in
large trucks, buses or other vehicles with 24 V batteries. (Doing so
could lead to fire or electric shock.)
• Do not damage or modify the cord. Also, do not use the cord if it is
damaged. (The damaged section could cause short-circuiting and
the cord could melt, leading to fire.) If the cord is damaged, contact
your store of purchase or wSHARP authorized service center.
• Do not pull on the cord when unplugging the Car Adapter or the
Micro USB Plug. (Doing so could damage the cord, leading to fire
or electric shock.)
• Do not plug in or unplug the Car Adapter or the Micro USB Plug
with wet hands. (Doing so could cause electric shock.)
• When transporting, be careful not to drop the product or subject it
to shocks. (Doing so could cause injury or damage.)
If the product should drop or be damaged, contact your store of
purchase or SHARP authorized service center.
Continued usage of damaged product could lead to fire or electric
shock.
• Do not modify the product. Also, no one other than an authorized
repairman should take apart or repair the product. (Doing so could
OM_IG-NX2_EN_MS_VT_CS.indb EN-1OM_IG-NX2_EN_MS_VT_CS.indb EN-1 31/5/2564 BE 16:5031/5/2564 BE 16:50

lead to fire, electric shock or injury.) Contact your store of purchase
or SHARP authorized service center for repairs.
• Do not spill beverages or drop cigarette ashes, metal objects,
easily burnable objects, etc., into the product through the Air Outlet
or Air Inlet. Be particularly careful if there are small children in your
family. If water or foreign substances should get inside the product,
unplug the Car Adapter from the accessory socket. (Continued
usage could lead to fire or electric shock.) Contact your store of
purchase or SHARP authorized service center.
• Do not wipe the product with oils, alcohol, benzine or thinners, or
spray hairspray or insecticides on the product. If such substances
should get on the product, wipe them off immediately. (Such
substances could lead to cracking or electric shock or could catch
fire.)
• Do not place the product in a place where it is exposed to oil
smoke or moisture such as kitchen counter or humidifying device.
(Doing so could lead to electric shock.)
• Do not place the product near heating equipment such as the
outlet of hot-air type heater. (Doing so could cause warping or
malfunction.)
• Use the Car Adapter designed exclusively for this product, and
insert the Car Adapter securely all the way in until it stops. (If the
Car Adapter is not inserted securely until it stops, it could heat up,
deforming the accessory socket, and this could lead to fire.)
• Be sure to unplug the Car Adapter from the accessory socket when
cleaning. (Failure to do so could cause electric shock or injury.)
• Be sure to unplug the Car Adapter from the accessory socket when
not in use for long periods of time. (Failure to do so could lead to
electric shock or fire caused by short-circuiting.)
• If the accessory socket is integrated into the ashtray, be sure that
cigarettes are completely extinguished before using the product.
• When leaving the vehicle, unplug the Car Adapter and close the
ashtray’s lid. (Failure to do so could lead to fire caused by the
smoldering cigarettes.)
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a
OM_IG-NX2_EN_MS_VT_CS.indb EN-2OM_IG-NX2_EN_MS_VT_CS.indb EN-2 31/5/2564 BE 16:5031/5/2564 BE 16:50

person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
CAUTIONS CONCERNING OPERATION :
• Do not touch the metal parts of the Car Adapter (or of the
accessory socket).
(The metal parts of the Car Adapter could be hot directly after the
car is stopped, and could cause burns if touched.)
• Do not use the product in external cup holders, on shaky or
non-level surfaces or in other unstable places. (The product could
fall, resulting in injury or damage.)
• Move the product out of the car when using room fumigating type
insecticides or deodorizers. If not, the chemicals could get inside
the product and later be ejected from the Air Outlet, possibly
harming your health.
• If the product risks falling out of the cup holder (when driving on
rough roads, over bumps, etc.), either slow down or remove the
product from the cup holder beforehand. (Failure to do so could
cause injury or damage to the product.)
• Do not use silicone-based items* near the product.
The fluororesin or silicone could get stuck inside the product,
preventing it from producing Plasmacluster ions.
If this happens, remove the dust from the electrode section of the
Plasmacluster Ion Generating Unit. (Page 13)
* Hair care items (split end coatings, hair mousses, hair treatments, etc.),
cosmetics, antiperspirants, antistatic agents, waterproofing sprays, polishes,
glass cleaners, chemical-impregnated clothes, wax, etc.

Cautions on wiring the Car Adapter
• Do not let the cord touch or get caught in the seat rails, shift lever
or other moving parts.
• Wire in such a way that the cord does not get in the way of the
driver.
• Consider the movement of the seats (forward / backward, swiveling
or reclining) when wiring.
• Do not bend the cord extremely or compress it.
Cautions on installation
• Separate the product from
electronic key of vehicle by 30 cm
or more. Otherwise, it may
interfere with electronic wave of
product and the electronic key may
not be recognized.
• Be sure to place in a stable
location. (Do not put in a external
cup holder or other unstable
place.)
• Do not obstruct the air inlet or outlet.
• Keep the product away from the vehicle’s in-glass antenna. Failure
to do so could cause interference on the radio.
• If there should be interference on a TV or radio located in the same
car, or if an atomic clock in the car should not display the time
properly, move the product away from the TV, radio, atomic clock,
etc.
• If the product is installed directly in front of the car climate control’s
outlets, the product could get hot when the climate control is
operating in the heating mode.
• The product could get scratched by the vibrations of the vehicle,
etc.
• It might be impossible to use for some types of cars.

FILTER
The filter must be cleaned regularly in order to maintain the ion
density. Filter soiling depends on the usage environment, so clean
the filter frequently as necessary. With frequent cleaning,
Plasmacluster ions can be released efficiently.
1. Remove the Filter Cover.
• See step 1 of “DISASSEMBLING”
on page 10.
2. Remove the filters.
3. Remove dust with a vacuum
cleaner.
• If the filter is dirty, simply wash
with water.
NOTE
• Do not press the vacuum cleaner strongly against the filter, or
the filter could be damaged.
• If using synthetic kitchen detergent, rinse well to remove all
traces of the detergent. Also, be sure to dry the filter in the
shade.
• Dry the product in a shaded area so that water drops do not
remain in the gap between the Filter Cover and the filter.
Frequently as necessary
