TROUBLE SHOOTING

Before calling for repair, check the symptoms below for possible remedies, since the problem may not be a malfunction of the unit.

SYMPTOM

The remote control does not work Odors and smoke cannot be removed easily The Clean sign lights green even when the air is dirty
REMEDY (not a malfunction)
Has the batteries depleted? Are the batteries inserted with correct polarity? Is a fluorescent lighting in the room flickering due to service life? Are the filters heavily dirty? Is the opening of the dirt sensor blocked or clogged? Was the air already dirty when the power plug was inserted into the wall outlet? (Refer to E-4) Dirt sensor cannot detect pollen and dust without smell.(Refer to E-4) The sensitivity of the sensor becomes unstable when the opening of the dirt sensor is dirty or is clogged. Clean the dust around the sensor opening using a vacuum cleaner. Dirt sensor detects insecticide, cosmetics,spray or alcohol as well. It is not a malfunction. During the Clean mode (or Refresh mode), the cluster ion lamp color will not change. This is the sound that is emitted when the unit is in the Refresh mode. If the sound is irritating, switch the unit to the Clean mode. This is the sound that is emitted when the unit is generating cluster ions. If the sound is irritating, such as when sleeping, etc., set the Cluster ion mode to OFF. The ozone generated by the cluster ion generator may have an odor. However, the density of ozone generated is very little and is harmless to the human body. Furthermore, the ozone decomposes quickly so it does not accumulate in the room. The applicable floor surface area is the surface area for when operating the unit in Max fan level.
