Please read before operating your new Air Purifier The air purifier draws in room air from its air intake, lets the air pass through an Active Carbon Filter (deodorization filter) and a HEPA Filter (dust collection filter) inside of the unit, then discharges the air from its air outlet. The air purifier unit repeats this process by moving its internal fan. As air passes through the HEPA filter if removes 99.97% of dust particles (as small as 0.3 microns.).
ENGLISH "Plasmacluster" technology Plasmacluster technology uses plasma discharge to produce and release the same positive and negative ions as those found in nature ("Plasmacluster ions"). This is a unique air cleaning technology of the SHARP CORPORATION for breaking down and eliminating such potential allergens as the fecal matter or corpses of aerial mites*1, viruses *2 and mold and bacteria *3 suspended in the air, and has been substantiated by third-party organizations both in Japan and overseas.
