Let Acerpure Vietnam guide you on how to use your air purifier properly to maximize cleaning efficiency, purify your living space, and improve mental well-being, while also extending the product's lifespan during use.
1. GUIDE TO USING AIR PURIFIERS & HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT PRODUCT
1.1. How to Choose an Air Purifier Based on Your Needs
Before "placing an order" for an air purifier, you need to clearly determine whether you need any additional features on the purifier besides its main purpose of air cleaning. For example, integrated fans, integrated lighting, advanced features, etc. Clearly defining your purpose helps you easily choose the suitable product line.
In reality today, all air purifier products have the ability to filter fine dust, deodorize odors, and remove allergens. Depending on the product segment, additional smart features will be integrated to provide an optimal experience for users. Purifiers that are invested with more modern technology will have a higher price tag, and of course, will provide the most convenient functions.

1.2. Suitable for the Size of the Usage Space
Air purifier lines are produced with different capacities, each suitable for a specific spatial area. Therefore, before buying a purifier, you need to determine exactly how many m2 your room is to choose a suitable product, ensuring the ability to purify the air optimally.
If you buy a purifier with a capacity smaller than the room area, the machine will not be able to filter as desired, especially in areas far from the machine, and it will have to operate continuously, causing power consumption and affecting the durability of the machine. Conversely, if the machine has a much larger capacity than the room area, the capacity will not be fully utilized, causing waste.
It is best to choose an air purifier with a capacity equivalent to the room area or 30% larger to ensure the air quality meets standards, save electricity, and increase the product's lifespan.
1.3. Choose Products from Reputable Brands
Once you have determined your needs and the room area, you can choose smart air purifiers from many brands on the market. You should prioritize major brands, products that integrate many modern technologies, and have reputable warranty policies.

2. GUIDE TO PROPERLY USING AN AIR PURIFIER
2.1. Preparation for First-Time Use
If this is your first time experiencing the product, you can refer to the following way to use an air purifier:
- Open the box, check for all products and accessories (remote, warranty card, user manual, etc.)
- Remove the seal on the filter inside the machine
- Install the filter into the machine in the correct direction and position
- Place the air purifier in a suitable location: You should place the machine on a firm, flat surface, 20 - 30 cm away from the wall, and should not place it in direct sunlight or a damp location
2.2. Guide to Using Basic Air Purifier Functions
Air purifier lines may differ in design and structure but all have basic usage steps:
- Turn on the power button to start the machine
- Select the operating mode
- Adjust the fan speed (low - medium - high) according to your needs
- Set a timer to turn off the machine
Depending on the product and function, users can control it directly through the touch panel on the machine body or by using the remote.
2.3. Refer to Advanced Features
Some high-end air purifier lines will have a series of advanced features:
- UV light disinfection function
- Negative ion generation function
- Child lock
- Air quality indicator light
- Filter replacement warning light

Depending on which features your product is equipped with, you can choose the appropriate mode to maximize the product's performance. Similar to basic features, advanced features can be easily set up via the touch panel or remote.
3. HOW TO MAINTAIN AND STORE AN AIR PURIFIER
3.1. Cleaning the Machine Components
On average every 1-2 months, you should clean the parts of the air purifier to ensure the machine operates well, provides standard output air, and has no unpleasant odors.
The way to clean the machine components is as follows:
- Clean the outside of the purifier: Unplug the power cord, use a dampened soft cloth or a dry cloth to gently wipe the body of the machine. Combine using a small brush to clean dust in the air intake and air outlet areas. Note: do not use strong cleaning chemicals when cleaning the machine.
- Cleaning the filter:
+ Pre-filter: Remove the pre-filter from the machine, use a vacuum cleaner to suck up the dust clinging to the surface, and wash it gently under clean running water.
+ HEPA filter: Use a vacuum cleaner and a soft brush head to gently suck up the layer of dust on the filter. Absolutely do not wash the HEPA filter because it will damage the fiber structure of the filter and lose its ability to filter fine dust.
+ Activated carbon filter: Vacuuming only removes the layer of dust on the outside and cannot remove the absorbed substances. It is best to replace the filter periodically according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Cleaning the odor sensor: You can use a vacuum cleaner to suck up the dust on the surface of the sensor cover mesh. In addition, you can also use a dry cotton swab to clean the sensor lens inside. Note that the sensor of the purifier is very sensitive, so do not use chemicals or water to clean it.

3.2. Storing the Air Purifier When Not in Use for a Long Time
In case you do not use the air purifier for a long time, you can clean the overall components of the machine, then place the machine in its product box (if you still have it) or use a clean plastic bag to cover the machine tightly to avoid dust accumulation.
When not in use, the air purifier should be placed in a cool, dry place, avoiding damp areas or direct sunlight. Keep the machine in an upright position, and do not let the product be crushed or pressed by other items.
4. COMMON ISSUES WHEN USING AN AIR PURIFIER
- If the machine does not operate or does not receive power, it may be because the plug is not inserted or the plug is loose, the filter cover is not closed tightly, or the machine has a faulty circuit/fuse inside.
- The machine makes abnormally loud noises due to a dirty filter, foreign objects falling into the machine/fan blades, a problem with the motor, or the machine being placed on an uneven surface.
- Weak airflow may be due to the pre-filter accumulating a lot of dirt, getting stuck with hair or pet fur, or the air intake/air outlet being covered by obstacles.
- Poor air purification efficiency is due to the filter being expired, the filter being installed in the wrong order, the machine capacity not corresponding to the room area, or the source of pollution in the room being too high.
- An unpleasant odor from the machine may stem from the filter being moldy or the machine sucking in an overly strong odor that permeates the filter.

When encountering these problems, you need to identify the cause and fix it yourself (if possible). In cases where you cannot fix it at home, you should take the product to an authorized service center for support.
5. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES WHEN USING AN AIR PURIFIER
To ensure safety during the use of the air purifier, you need to follow these regulations:
- Ensure the air purifier uses the correct specified power source.
- Do not allow water or foreign objects to fall inside the machine.
- Before cleaning or replacing the filter, you must unplug the power cord.
- Place the machine out of reach of children.
- Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the machine if you do not have expertise in machinery.
