ABOUT THE FILTER

The air purifier uses a 3-stage filtration system to purify air.

Filtration system to purify air

Pre-Filter
- Captures large particles such as dust, lint, fibres, hair, and pet fur.
- Maximises the filter’s life by protecting it.
B. True HEPA Original Filter
- Removes at least 99.97% of airborne particles 0.3 micrometres (µm) in diameter.
- Filters small particles such as mould spores, tiny dust particles, parts of smoke, and allergens such as pollen, dander, and mites.
C. High-Efficiency Activated Carbon Filter
- Physically adsorbs smoke, odours, and fumes.
- Filters compounds such as formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, hydrogen sulphide, 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 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 40 m² / 431 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 mouldy

Note: Water or moisture will allow mould to grow. Air purifiers cannot solve an existing mould problem, only remove mould spores and reduce odours.

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.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Cleaning the Air Purifier

Unplug before cleaning.

Vacuum the inside of the air purifier.
Do not clean with abrasive chemicals or flammable cleaning agents.

Check Filter Indicator

will light up as a reminder to check the filter. Depending on how much you use the air purifier, the indicator should turn on within 6–8 months. You may not need to replace your filter yet, but you should check it when turns on.

Cleaning the Filter

The outer pre-filter should be cleaned every 2–4 weeks to increase the efficiency and extend the life of your filter. Clean the pre-filter using a soft brush or vacuum hose to remove hair, dust, and large particles. [Figure 3.1] Do not clean the filter with water or other liquids.

Filter	When to Clean	How to Clean
Pre-Filter	Every 2–4 weeks	**Use a soft brush or vacuum hose
[Figure 3.1]**	6–8 months
True HEPA & Activated Carbon Filte	Do not clean

When Should I Replace the Filter?

The filter should be replaced every 6–8 months. You may need to replace your filter earlier 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 replace the filter more often, even if is off.
You may need to replace your filter if you notice:

Increased noise when the air purifier is on
Decreased airflow
Unusual odours
A visibly clogged filter

Note:

To maintain the performance of your air purifier, only use official Levoit filters. To buy replacement filters, go to Amazon and search B07S8NM4Q9.
Remember to reset after changing the filter.

Replacing the Filter

Unplug the air purifier. Flip the air purifier over and remove the filter cover (see Getting Started, 9).
Remove the old filter.
Clean out any remaining dust or hair inside the purifier using a vacuum hose. Do not use water or liquids to clean the purifier. [Figure 3.2]
Unwrap the new filter and place it into the housing (see Getting Started, 9).
Replace the cover. Plug in the air purifier.
Reset the Check Filter Indicator (see 14).

Storage

If not using the air purifier for an extended period of time, wrap both the purifier and the filter in plastic packaging and store in a dry place to avoid moisture damage.
