A powerful, silent, fan motor draws the air through the main grill. 3. Dirty air passes through a prefilter "E" that removes the larger airborne particles such as lint, dust and pollen. The partially filtered air is then drawn through a long-life HEPA filter with a large surface area, easily distinguishable by its plastic frame. This HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filter removes particles as small as 0. 1 micron, filtering all kinds of particles and even bacteria. 4. The air then passes through an activated carbon filter which removes odours; the filter is dark grey and is easily distinguished by its highly porous appearance; IONIZER IONIZER PRE-FILTER ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER HEPA FILTER 5. Purified air is then returned to the room. Indicatively, in normal conditions, the HEPA filters should last about six months and the active carbon filters from two to three months. To check the efficiency of the HEPA filter, compare the colour of the filter with the colours shown in the "B" filter condition indicator inside the filter access door. When the filter changes from white to dark grey or brown, it should be replaced. Do not wash the activated carbon filter or the HEPA filter; once exhausted, these filters can no longer be used. 5. De Longhi replacement filters are available from our service centres and from home appliance retailers. · To replace the active carbon filters, proceed as follows: lift the used filter from one end and remove from its housing. Insert the new filter, making sure to position it correctly under the special tabs.
