These figures are based on tests in which the air purifier is used for 8 hours per day in quiet mode.
You may need to replace the filters more often depending on the air quality and how often the air purifier is used. The filter replacement indicator (7) will turn on when the filters need to be replaced and you will receive a notification on your mobile application. To replace the filters, please refer to the section “Disassembling / Reassembling filters”.
Important! When the filter replacement indicator (7) turns on, please check on the mobile application in order to know which filter has to be replaced. If two filters must be changed, please change them one by one.

Performing a force reset:
If you replace a filter before the end of its lifespan, press the mode button (2) for 3 seconds to reset the filter settings.
Caution :
If the granules become “white opaque”, the filter needs to be removed from the purifier until the granules become transparent again.
If the opaque aspect persists, the filter needs to be changed.

The appliance efficiency can be reduced if the pre-filter is not cleaned regularly.

The pre-filter is the only filter that can be re-used and washed with water. The 2in1 Active Carbon & Allergy+ filter cannot be cleaned and re-used. Never wash with water. The 2in1 Active Carbon & Allergy+ filter must be replaced after the end of its lifespan. For optimum performance of the appliance, only use filters provided by Rowenta. If the Nanocaptur+ filter granules become opaque white or/and crumbly, the filter needs to be changed.
Please note: certain filters may emit a temporary slight odor, due to the transport and storage conditions.
This odor will vanish and is not dangerous for people.
