Product Overview

1. Water Tank
2. Cold Evaporation Filter (CEF)
3. Cold Evaporation Filter Lid (CEF Lid)
4. Top Cover
5. Salt Bottle with 1 Gram Scoop
6. Power Cord
7. Pre-Filter

How It Works

The Aaira + Humidifier has a two-stage cleaning system to disinfect the air. A fan draws air in through the pre-filter at the bottom of the purifier. Inside, the air passes through the Cold Evaporation Filter and exits through the top cover. The two stages to the air purifier are:

STAGE 1: Pre-filter.
The pre-filter has a screen that captures large airborne particles.

STAGE 2: Cold Evaporation Filter (CEF).

The CEF absorbs the HOCl water generated in the water tank. The HOCl water is evaporated as air passes through the CEF. This disperses the HOCl molecules throughout the airspace in the room allowing it to destroy a variety of bacteria and viruses.

Unpacking and Setup

Remove the air purifier from the box and check that all the items are included. It is a
good idea to keep the packaging for storage or in the event it must be shipped back
for service.
Remove the top cover and make sure the CEF and CEF lid are securely in place.
Place the Aaira + Humidifier on a flat, solid surface in proximity to an AC electrical
outlet.
Connect the power cord to the Sterilizer, and route the power cord to the outlet, but
do not plug it in yet. Make sure that the power cord is out of the way and does not
pose a tripping hazard, and is out of reach of children and pets.

Getting Started

1 Make sure the Cold Evaporation
Filter (CEF) is secure and the CEF
lid is locked in place.

2 Fill salt bottle with non-iodized salt and place
3 scoops (3 grams) on top sides of the lid.
Skip this step for humidification only.

3 Close the top cover

4 Fill water to MAX line,
washing all salt off the
CEF lid.

5 Press the power button to
turn on and select fan and
sterilize function.

standby mode.
3. Press the On/Off button again to begin operation. The blue light in the water
tank will turn on, the fan speed will default to level 2, and the Sterilize button will
illuminate, indicating that the sterilizer is actively disinfecting the air in the room.

Timer Operation

Press the timer button to toggle through the options (2H-4H-8H-None). Once selected,
an internal timer controls operation of the purifier for the selected duration. Once the
timer expires the purifier enters standby mode.
NOTE: Do not use this option if you want the sterilizer to run continuously.

Humidifier Operation

1. Fill the water tank with clean water. DO NOT add salt to the tank.
2. Press the Sterilize button to toggle the Sterilize function off. This will stop
the disinfection function.

CEF Replacement

1. Remove the CEF lid.
2. Unscrew the CEF from the tank and discard. NOTE: Handle the new CEF by the end
caps to avoid touching the element, this will prevent possible contamination of the
filter element.
3. Remove the replacement CEF from packaging and screw it into the bottom of the
water tank. Plug in the power cord.
4. Turn on the Sterilizer and press and hold the Sterilize button for three seconds to reset
the filter life countdown.

If you replace the filter before the accumulated life time is reached, the filter life timer
cannot be reset. To purchase replacement filters, please visit: www.dhlifelabs.com

Troubleshooting

Symptom – Probable Cause/Solution

Low air flow – Check that Pre-Filter and the air inlet are free from obstructions
and not blocked by dust, trash, etc. Clean as necessary.

Emits a chlorine (disinfection) smell – Chlorine smell is normal. You can change to sleep mode to minimize the smell in the room.

Air from the Sterilizer smells bad – Check that water tank and CEF are clean. Clean water tank regularly and replace CEF as necessary.

The Sterilizer has been tipped over or fallen – Immediately unplug the power cord. Lift up the Sterilizer and wipe off any water on the surface of the machine. Allow the Sterilizer to completely dry before resuming operation.

Water added to Water Tank, and water level indicator is still flashing – Please discard all water in the tank and check again. If it still does not work, contact Customer Assistance.

Salt Level indicator displayed even after salt has been added – It takes some time to dissolve the salt and monitor the actual concentration. If it still does not work after some time, discard salt water solution and mix a new batch per the instruction carefully.

Salt Level indicator flashing after salt has been added – Make sure amount of salt added is correct. If necessary discard salt water solution and mix a new batch per the instruction
carefully.

For any issues not covered here, contact Customer Assistance.
