Troubleshooting
Unit not turning on or responding.
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the unit and a working electrical outlet. Try a different outlet to rule out power source issues. Check if any child lock feature is accidentally activated (refer to your specific model's manual for child lock instructions).
Air quality reading remains high or doesn't seem to improve.
Verify the unit is placed in a central location within the recommended 23sqm coverage area, not obstructed by furniture or walls. Ensure all filters (DebrisDefence and NeverChange5 HEPA) are correctly installed and free from plastic packaging. Increase the fan speed manually if needed for faster purification. For larger rooms, air purification might take longer or require multiple units.
Unusual noise or vibration from the unit.
Check for any loose parts or foreign objects inside the unit or obstructing the fan vents. Ensure the unit is on a stable, flat surface. Clean the DebrisDefence washable pre-filter, as excessive dust and debris build-up can affect airflow and cause increased noise or vibration.
Anti-Odour Technology seems less effective.
The Anti-Odour Technology cartridge may need replacement. While the main HEPA filter lasts 5 years, the anti-odour cartridge has its own lifespan depending on usage and environmental factors. (Info needed: Specific instructions for checking/replacing anti-odour cartridge.)
