When fault indicators show that the system is not operating properly, perform the following check.
The table below is only a limited list. For the latest and complete section on troubleshooting, FAQ and error guide please refer to the corresponding section on our website or the Electrolux App.

inserted
new filter(s), please ensure that the filter(s) are
positioned in the correct way for the RFID tags to be read by the sensor. Generally, the unit comes with a variety of sophisticated sensors, electronics and other electrical components and if one of these is malfunctioning, you will see the alert icon on the product control panel light up. For more details on steps to resolve, please head over to the Electrolux App and check for details whenever you see this icon lit.| Please have at hand the unit’s PNC and SERIAL number if you need to contact Electrlux service organisation for support.
2| The air purifier is running at max fan speed
all the time for extended periods| If in MANUAL mode, please check the fan speed slider on the product control panel or within Electrolux App and adjust it to desired level. If in SMART mode, please check air quality indicator on the product control panel or within Electrolux App – if all PM values are constantly showing 9991000 without any
reduction then most likely the sensor is
clogged.
Please use a vacuum cleaner to clean the sensor via the sensor window – detailed instructions in CLEANING, CARING & STORAGE section above.| The PM sensor in the unit is highly accurate
and sensitive and it is normal for the purifier to react to poor air quality by  ramping up the fanspeed – to get your indoor air quality back to safe levels.
3| The air purifier is running at lowest fan speed all
the time for extended periods| If in MANUAL mode, please check the fan speed on the product control panel display or within Electrolux App and adjust it to desired level. If in SMART mode, please check air quality indicator on the product control panel or within Electrolux App – if all PM values are constantly reading very good without any increase then this is normal behavior for the unit – your air quality is very good! If the PM2.5 value is high and the unit is still operating at lowest fan speed, then please check filter change icon on the product control panel or within Electrolux App and if lit please replace used filter with a new one, this should resolve the
specific fan speed issue. If neither of the above steps OR instructions in the Electrolux App help, please refer to item 9 in the table.| The unit is designed so that when a filter
is at end of life, it will discourage usage till
the filter is replaced, by limiting the fan speed so as not to reintroduce the captured particulate matter back into the air.
4| The air purifier produces a loud or abnormal
noise| Please ensure that the plastic bags around the
filters has been removed, ensure the air inlet
(around the front panel) and air outlet grill (top
of the unit) are unobstructed and that there is a
clearance of at least 30 cm between the unit and
the nearest surface.
If neither of the above steps OR instructions in the Electrolux App help, please refer to item 12 in the table.| If there is an abnormal noise in your product, even after checking the steps in the trouble shoot guide, please contact an Electrolux authorized service center for further support.
5| The air purifier or fan does not operate| Ensure that the unit is receiving power. If needed, try pushing the power plug firmly into the wall socket to check if this resolves the issue. Check that the fuse of your home has not blown or that the circuit breaker has been tripped. Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker if needed.
If neither of the above steps OR instructions in  the Electrolux App help, please refer to item 12 in the table.|
6| The air purifier is running but the air quality does not improve| If in SMART mode, closely monitor the difference in air quality levels within the Electrolux App for next 20 minutes – if you do not see any improvement of the air quality values in the Electrolux App during this period then follow the step below.
Change to MANUAL mode and adjust the fan speed to a higher level to see if this helps resolve the issue. If you still do not see any improvement. Close any open doors OR windows to the outside of the room and rerun the unit at the highest fan speed for 20 minutes. If this resolves the issue, we recommend that you operate the unit in this sealed environment as much as possible, till the air quality is also at a good level.| If the unit is placed in a room larger than the
recommended size, it will take longer for the
air quality to improve – please be patient and maintain the unit at the highest feasible speed.
7| The air purifier produces or emits a strangesmell| The first time you run the unit, you may perceive a plastic, glue or paint smell – especially near the air outlet grill – this is unavoidable in some cases (like the ‘new car smell’) but should disappear quickly.
If you perceive a burning smell, please  disconnect the unit and contact Electrolux authorized service center for further support.
The VOC filter is in the end of life. Please  change to a new VOC filter.| Always ensure that the filters are covered in
appropriate packaging while stored away
between uses, and that all parts are dry to avoid smell or mould build up.
8| The filter icon is lit, even though I recently
changed the filters| Turn OFF the unit with the ON OFF button, or
unplug and re-plug the unit, to see if the icon
disappears.| It is important to turn OFF the unit before
changing the filter, in order to reset the
product.
9| The air purifier or fan does not operate| The water refill light flashes. Make sure the water tank is properly installed and there is enough water in the water tank. Ensure that the side panel is closed.|
10| There are some white or yellow deposits on the humidification filter| The white deposits are called lime scale and they consist of minerals from the water. Scale on the rotary humidification filter affects the humidifying performance, however it does not harm your health. Follow the cleaning instructions in the user manual.|
11| It takes a long time to reach the target humidity level| Humidification technology evenly distributes
invisible water vapour into your room. In dry
conditions moisture from the humidifier will be
absorbed by walls , furniture, and other items
in your room. Ventilation of dry outside air
will also increase the time it takes to reach the
target humidity. To optimize humidification and purification performance, it’s ecommended to close doors and windows during use. Change the humidification filter evey year.|
12| I am unable to connect the Air purifier to the App| If you are unable to onboard the unit and connect it to the Electrolux App after a couple of attempts following the steps in the Electrolux App and FAQ, then please contact an Electrolux authorized service center for support.| The WiFi chip in the unit operates only at 2.4Ghz so please ensure your home WiFi is operating at this bandwidth.
| I have another issue not listed here OR none
of the above steps have helped resolve the issue| You can search for more troubleshooting and FAQ guides on our website OR the Electrolux App under the product information pages, or directly contact Electrolux authorized service center for support. Thank you!| Please have the unit’s PNC and serial
number available when contacting the
Electrolux service. This information can be
found on the rating label which is located on the main unit behind the front cover.
