To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or another injury, follow all
instructions and safety guidelines.
General Safety
- Only use your air purifier as described in this manual.
- Do not use without removing the plastic wrap from the filter. The purifier will not filter air and may overheat, causing a fire hazard.
- Do not use your air purifier outdoors.
- Keep your air purifier away from water, and wet or damp areas. Never place in water or liquid.
- Do not use in excessively humid areas.
- Keep your air purifier away from heat sources.
- Do not use where combustible gases, vapors, metallic dust, aerosol (spray) products, or fumes from industrial oil are present.
- Keep 1.5 m / 5 ft away from where oxygen is being administered.
- Supervise children when they are near the air purifier.
- Do not place anything into any opening on the air purifier.
- Do not sit or place heavy objects on the air purifier.
- Keep the inside of the air purifier dry. To prevent moisture buildup, avoid placing in rooms with major temperature changes or underneath air conditioners.
- Always unplug your air purifier before servicing (such as changing the filter).
- Do not use your air purifier if it is damaged or not working correctly, or if the cord or plug is damaged. Do not try to repair it yourself. Contact Customer Support (see page 15).
- WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this air purifier with solid-state speed controls (such as a dimmer switch).
- Not for commercial use. Household use only.
Power & Cord
- Keep air purifier near the outlet it is plugged into.
- Never place the cord near any heat source.
- Do not cover the cord with a rug, carpet, or other covering. Do not place the cord under furniture or appliances.
- Keep the cord out of areas where people walk often. Place the cord where it will not be tripped over.
- This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
- This air purifier uses standard North American 120V, 60Hz outlets. If using outside of North America, check for compatibility.

ABOUT THE FILTER
The air purifier uses a 3-stage filtration system to purify air.
A. Pre-Filter
- Captures large particles such as dust, lint, fibers, hair, and pet fur.
- Maximizes the filter’s life by protecting it.
B. True HEPA Original Filter
- Removes at least 99.97% of airborne particles 0.3 micrometers (µm) in diameter.
- Filters small particles such as mold spores, tiny dust particles, parts of smoke, and allergens such as pollen, dander, and mites.
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).
Clean Air Delivery Rate
Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) measures the efficiency of an air purifier by
indicating the volume of clean air that an air purifier produces per minute.
This is based on the removal of dust, pollen, and smoke, which are the 3 most
common indoor air pollutants.
The higher the CADR, the more particles the air purifier will remove and the
larger the area it can clean. The rating is measured at the air purifier’s
highest speed.
Air Change Per Hour
The air change rate is how many times all of the air in a room can be purified
(or “changed”) by the air purifier in 1 hour. Air changes per hour are
calculated on the recommended room size assuming 2.4 m/8 ft ceilings. For
smaller rooms, the air change per hour will increase. The Core 300 has an air
change per hour of 5, which means it can change air 5 times at the max speed.
This purifier is suggested for use in a single, closed room up to 20.3 m² /
219 ft².
Note: To effectively clean air, keep windows and doors closed while the air purifier is on.
Humidity
Moisture may damage the filter. This air purifier should be used in an area
with a humidity level below 85% RH. If you use the air purifier in excessively
humid areas, the surface of the filter will become moldy.
Note: Water or moisture will allow mold to grow. Air purifiers cannot
solve an existing mold problem, only remove mold spores and reduce odors.
Essential Oils
Do not add essential oils to the air purifier or filter. The filter will
become damaged by the oil and will eventually release an unpleasant smell.
Do not use oil diffusers near the air purifier.

When Should I Replace the Filter?

FAQS
How do you adjust the fan settings?
Tap the fan speed and it changes the settings from 1, 11 or 111.
How often does filter needs changing?
Every 6-8 months is fine depending on how the filter looks. The pre-filter can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner every 2-4 weeks to maintain its effect and the other 2 filters cannot be cleaned.
How do I know if my purifier is working?
The purifier will make a low humming noise when it is working. If the purifier is not making noise, check to make sure the power cord is securely plugged in. If it still doesn’t work, please contact us at support@levoit.com or call us at 888-726-8520.
How long will it take for my purifier to start working?
It depends on the size of your room and the quality of the air in your home or office. Some customers notice a difference in as little as a few hours, while others may need to leave their purifier on for several days before they notice a difference.
Do I need to clean my filter?
You should never need to clean your filter. However, if you notice that your filter is dirty, you can remove it and wash with warm water and mild detergent. Hang dry and replace in the purifier. Do not use any other cleaning products or solvents on your filter.
Will my purifier help with odors?
Yes! Your purifier will help remove odors from the air as well as dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores and other allergens.
What is the difference between this one and The levoit H 13?
This model is the exact same as the Core 300, but in a black color.
Are they still sold out of filters?
The four filters of Core 300 are available for purchase. Please search the following on Amazon for more information: B09GM2198L (Smoke Remove), B07RV1XLV4 (Pet Allergy), B07RSZF32W (Toxin Absorber), or B07RSZSYNC (Original).
Does it kill viruses?
A virus is a non-living protein particle. Therefore, it can not be killed, but it can be broken down and destroyed. This machine says that it will remove and breakdown viruses. So yes, it will help you with decreasing viruses in your home the same as it will bacteria.
How long can this product be warranted?
Brand-new Levoit products purchased from verified sellers (such as Amazon.com Services LLC) are covered by the 2-year manufacturer’s warranty.
Can this work with 220 volt plug ?
Only for 120V, 60Hz. You need a transformer if you only have 220 volt plug.
Does the air quality colors show on the product when you don’t buy the smart version of it?
The Core 300 does not have this function, however, our Core 300s can detect increases in airborne particles through different colors and automatically adjusts the fan speed accordingly.
Will it filter out wildfire smoke?
Yes, our purifier has a layer of activated carbon that can absorb smoke. But the actual efficiency depends on the size of the room that you want to purify and the ambient environment.
will this work for 480 sq ft room?
Maybe you’ll need a bigger one it can probably but take longer to filter the entire room and Probably not effectively.
Anyone know why it sounds like the purifier is not working at the highest setting? It feels like it’s not blowing any air out at fan speed 3.
Must not be working properly ,send it back and get another one. Mine works very well ,lots of air blowing out the top even helps cool my room .
Amazon page says h13, but it doesn’t say h13 on levoit website or anywhere in core 300 user manual. can seller confirm h13?
Yes, all of our air purifiers except for the LV-H126 feature a grade H13 True HEPA filter.
