ABOUT THE FILTERS

This air purifier uses a 3-stage filtration system to purify the air.
A. Fine Preliminary Filter

  • Captures large particles such as dust, lint, fibers, hair, and pet fur.
  • Maximizes the life of the True HEPA Filter by protecting it.Levoit Smart True HEPA Air Purifier LV-PUR131S-Fine Preliminary Filter

B. True HEPA Filter

  • Removes at least 99.97% of airborne particles as small as 0.3 micrometers (µm) in diameter.
  • Traps fine particles such as dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, and pollen.
    Note: Levoit air purifiers reduce airborne particles by 0.3 microns or larger and make no claims to help reduce COVID-19 viruses.Levoit Smart True
HEPA Air Purifier LV-PUR131S-True HEPA Filter

C. High-Efficiency Activated Carbon Filter

  • Physically adsorbs smoke, odors, and fumes.
  • Filters compounds such as formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Air Purifier
Wipe the outside of the air purifier with a dry cloth. Do not clean with water or any other liquid, to avoid the risk of electric shock.
Check Filter Indicator
The Check Filter Indicator will light up as a reminder to check the filters. Depending on how often you use the air purifier, the indicator should turn on within 6–8 months. You may not need to change your filters yet, but you should check them when the indicator light turns on.
The Check Filter Indicator is only intended as a reminder. When your air purifier is set up with the VeSync app, you can also check the app to see your remaining filter life. This will provide a more accurate estimate for your remaining filter life than the Check Filter Indicator. For full instructions, see the extended digital manual (QR code on page 3).
Reset the Check Filter Indicator by pressing the black reset button inside the vent on the side of the air purifier (see page 13).
Cleaning the Filters
A. The Fine Preliminary Filter should be cleaned once a month to increase efficiency and extend the life of your filter. Clean the Fine Preliminary Filter using a brush or vacuum hose to remove hair, dust, and large particles.
B. Do not clean the True HEPA Filter. Fine dust or bacteria may be released back into the air if cleaning is attempted. Only clean the Fine Preliminary Filter.
C. The Activated Carbon Filter does not require cleaning.
Replacing the Filters

  1. Unplug the air purifier and remove the back cover.
  2. Remove the old filters and properly dispose of them.
  3. Unwrap the new filters. Place the Activated Carbon Filter inside the housing. Make sure the pull tabs are facing out.
  4. Install the Preliminary/True HEPA Combination Filter into the housing. Make sure the pull tabs are facing out.
  5. Replace the back cover. The air purifier will not power on unless the back cover is replaced correctly.
  6. Press the Filter Indicator Reset Button inside the vent (see page 13). Levoit Smart True HEPA Air Purifier LV-PUR131S-Replacing the Filters

When Should I Replace the Filters?
Check the VeSync app to see your remaining filter life. If the app shows that the filter’s life is less than 5%, then the filters should be replaced. For full instructions, see the extended digital manual (QR code on page 3). The filters should be replaced every 6–8 months. You may need to replace your filters sooner or later depending on how often you use your air purifier. Using your air purifier in an environment with relatively high pollution may mean you will need to change the filters more often.
You may need to replace your filters if you notice:

  • Increased noise when the air purifier is on
  • Decreased airflow
  • Unusual odors
  • Visibly clogged filters

Note: To maintain the performance of your air purifier, only use official Levoit filters. To buy replacement filters, visit Levoit’s online store. Go to levoit.com for more information. Levoit Smart True HEPA

VESYNC APP TROUBLESHOOTING

Why isn’t my air purifier connecting to the VeSync app?

  • During the setup process, you must be on a secure 2.4GHz WiFi network. Confirm that the network is working correctly.
  • Make sure the WiFi password you entered is correct.
  • There should be no spaces at the beginning or end of the password.
  • Test the password by connecting a different electronic device to the router.
  • If you’re manually typing in the SSID and password, double-check that both are entered correctly.
  • Try moving your air purifier closer to the router. Your phone should be as close as possible to your air purifier.
  • Your router may need to be at a higher location.
  • Make sure your air purifier and router are away from appliances (such as microwave ovens, refrigerators, electronic devices, etc.) to avoid signal interference.
  • If you’re using a VPN, make sure it’s turned off while setting up your air purifier.
  • Disable portal authentication for your WiFi network. If portal authentication is enabled, the air purifier will not be able to access your WiFi network, and the setup will fail.

Note: Portal authentication means that you need to sign on to your WiFi network through a web page before you can use the Internet.
