Specifications

Description

The Levoit Core Mini True HEPA Air Purifier LAP-C161-KUS is designed to provide cleaner air in small spaces. Its True HEPA filter captures 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns, including dust, pollen, smoke, and pet dander. The pre-filter extends the life of the True HEPA filter by capturing larger particles, such as pet hair and lint. The optional night light with two brightness levels makes it perfect for use in bedrooms, nurseries, or any space where a soft light is desired. With ultra-quiet operation at only 24dB in sleep mode and an energy-efficient design using only 0.8W in sleep mode, this air purifier is both powerful and eco-friendly.

GETTING STARTED

IMPORTANT

• The AC power adapter comes stored inside the air purifier.
• You must remove the plastic from the filter before using it.

1. Remove all packaging, including any tape on the aroma box (see page 8).
2. Rotate the top half of the air purifier counterclockwise and remove it from the bottom half. [Figure 1.1]

3. Remove the filter and AC power adapter from inside the air purifier. Remove all plastic packaging from the filter. Place the filter back into the air purifier. [Figure 1.2]

   

4. Place the top half of the air purifier directly back onto the bottom half of the air purifier. Rotate clockwise to secure both halves in place. [Figure 1.3]

   

5. Connect the AC power adapter to the air purifier. Plug into an outlet.

6. To allow air to circulate freely in and out of the air purifier, there should ideally be 15 inches / 38 cm of clearance on all sides of the air purifier. [Figure 1.4]

   

USING YOUR AIR PURIFIER

Adding Essential Oils 

1. Push in the aroma box and pull it out.
2. Add 5–7 drops of essential oil to the aroma pad.

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 may become moldy.

Note: Water or moisture will allow mold to grow. To solve a mold problem, get rid of the source of the moisture and clean up the mold.
