Air purification system

The unit features a 3-in-1 filter system that includes a pre-filter, antibacterial HEPA H13 filter, and activated carbon filter to effectively capture airborne pollutants. Additionally, the built-in negative ion generator helps clean and refresh the indoor air.

① Pre-Filter
Traps large airborne particles, such as hair, dust, and pet dander.

② Antibacterial HEPA H13 Filter
Captures 99.97% of microscopic allergens and germs as small as 0.3 microns from the air with a proven ability to kill bacteria and prevent mould growth.

③ Activated Carbon Filter
Neutralises odours caused by smoke and VOCs emitted from new furniture, household disinfectants, paint and more.

④ Negative Ions
Releases negative ions into the surrounding air to help with the removal of airborne particles and freshens the air.

Note: The HEPA and carbon media are combined as a composite filter. The ioniser is a purification stage (not a physical filter).

Installation Guide

⚠ Note: Remove plastic bags from filters before first use

Remove the unit from the box and protective bag.
Open the bottom plate/filter door (press the OPEN handle).
Take out the filter and remove all protective plastic.
Re-insert the filter securely with the pull-tab facing outward (if present).
