“Plasmacluster” and “Device of a cluster of grapes” are

trademarks of Sharp Corporation.

* The number in this technology mark indicates an

approximate number of ions supplied into air of 1
cm3, which is measured around the center of a room
applicable floor area (at 1.2 m height above the floor)
when the product is placed close to a wall at the MED
mode setting.

 A unique Combination of Air Treatment Technologies
Triple Filteration System + Plasmacluster

High Density Plasmacluster 25000

The higher the PCI density is, the more effective PCI has.

Triple Filteration System

TRAP DUST
Pre-filter traps dust larger than approx 240 micron particles.
DECREASES ODORS
Deodorizing filter absorbs many common household odors.
REDUCES TINY DUST, POLLEN & MOLD
HEPA filter traps 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.

Unique Airflow
Powerful air suction and unique airflow quickly and efficiently collect dust and other particles.

Faster airflow at a 20º angle collects dust at

lower levels in the room for more effective
cleaning.
Plasmacluster can remove static electricity
and can thus prevent dust from attaching to
walls and other surfaces.

Plasmacluster
By emitting a balance of positive and negative ions, Plasmacluster air treatment is a natural process.

PM2.5 Monitor
• Inform by lighting PM2.5 monitor when Sensitive Dust sensor detects microscopic dust.
• Display the value of PM2.5 in 3 digits.

Plasmacluster Ion Spot Mode

• Recommended when odor and germs adhering to sofa and curtains are concerned.
• Emits highdensity Plasmacluster Ions only in the forward directions.

Please read before operating your new Air Purifier

The air purifier draws in room air through
the air intake, circulates it through a Pre-
Filter, a Deodorizing Filter and a HEPA
Filter inside the main unit, and then
discharges it through the air outlet. The
HEPA Filter
HEPA Filter can remove 99.97% of dust
particles as small as 0.3 microns that pass Deodorizing Filter
through the filter and also helps absorb
odors.The Deodorizing Filter gradually
absorbs odors as they pass through the
filter. Pre-Filter

Some odors absorbed by the filters will break down over time, causing additional odors.
Depending on usage conditions, and especially if the main unit is used in environments
significantly more severe than a normal household, these odors may become noticeable sooner
than expected. If these odors persist, replace the filters. (page 13)

NOTE
• The air purifier is designed to remove air-suspended dust and the odors.
The air purifier is not designed to remove harmful gases such as carbon monoxide contained in cigarette smoke.
The air purifier may not completely remove an odor if the source of the odor is still present.
