---|---|---|---
% CLEAN AIR| | | Displays the air quality rating:
• Poor: 0%–69% • Fair: 70%–84% • Good: 85%–100% %
CLEAN AIR uses particulate matter (PM) Air Quality Standards as determined by the EPA to calculate the air quality rating.
TIME TO CLEAN AIR
MIN| | | Shows the estimated time remaining until your air is clean.
PARTICLE SIZES| The PM (particulate matter) value is the amount of particulate in your air, measured in micrograms
(μg) per cubic meter. Your air purifier measures three particles sizes, PM1, PM2.5, and PM10.
PM1| | | Displays the amount of PM1-sized particles in your
air, including viruses and ultra-fine allergens.

your air, including smoke and bacteria.
PM10| | | Displays the amount of PM10-sized particles in
your air, including dust, mold, and pollen.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR AIR QUALITY

The ring on the front and top displays will change color as your air quality changes, allowing you to easily monitor your air quality even when you are far from the unit.

| |
---|---|---
A blue ring means your air quality is good, with a low level of particle concentration.| An amber ring means your air quality is fair, with a moderate level of particle concentration. For better results, increase
fan speed or select Auto Mode.| A red ring means your air quality is poor, with a high level of particle concentration. For better results, increase fan speed or select Auto Mode.

Note: Air quality sensor uses a cumulative particle count across all particle sizes to determine air quality percentage.
