not be a malfunction of the unit.
SYMPTOM
REMEDY (not a malfunction)
The remote control does not
work
• Has the batteries depleted?
• Are the batteries inserted with correct polarity?
• Is a fluorescent lighting in the room flickering due to
service life? (Refer to E-3)
Odors and smoke cannot be
removed easily
• Are the filters heavily dirty? (Refer to E-13)
The Clean sign lights green
even when the air is dirty
• Is the opening of the dust sensor blocked or clogged?
• Was the air already dirty when the power plug was
inserted into the wall outlet? (Refer to E-4)
The Clean sign lights orange
or red even when the air is
clean
• The sensitivity of the sensor becomes unstable when
the opening of the dust sensor is dirty or is clogged.
Clean the dust around the sensor opening using a
vacuum cleaner. (Refer to E-12)
The cluster ion lamp remains
green (blue) and does not
change
• During the Clean mode (or Refresh mode), the cluster
ion lamp color will not change.
A sound is
heard from
the unit
Click, click
Tick, tick, tick
• 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 gener-
ating cluster ions.
If the sound is irritating, such as when sleeping, etc., set
the Cluster ion mode to OFF.
The discharged air smells
• 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 unit does not operate
even when smoking ciga-
rettes
• Is the unit installed in a location that is difficult for the
sensors to detect cigarette smoke?
• If the odor or dust sensor openings blocked or clogged?
(In this case, clean the openings.) (Refer to E-12)
