colour
Concentration of particles
The above picture displays PM10/PM2.5/
PM1.0, meaning that the concentration of
super ultra-fine dust is higher than those of
fine dust and ultra-fine dust.
The colour for the size of particles is
displayed only based on the concentration
of particles. The colour for the concentration
of odour is displayed only based on the
concentration of odour, the colour for the
overall air quality is based on the biggest
cause between particles and odour.
If the smell is Normal and the PM 1.0 (super
ultra-fine dust) concentration is 50 μg/m³, which
is Unhealthy, the overall air quality is displayed
in orange as the worst cause is the dust. On
the other hand, if the smell is Very Strong, the
overall air quality is displayed in red because
the smell becomes the worst cause.
Knowing the Particles
Concentration
You can check the particulate matter
concentration by its particle size.
Press the Indicator button during the operation.
• Whenever you press the button, the display
changes in the following order:
PM10 ~ PM2.5 ~ PM1.0
• The concentration of the selected particles
is displayed for about 10 seconds.

NOTE
• The overall air quality level is a result of
both PM concentration and the odour
level.
• Even two products placed in the same
space could measure the concentration of
particles differently due to air circulation.
• Unlike the odour(gas), the concentration
of particles could be measured slowly
due to the slow diffusion rate.
• Air flow near the dust sensor may
interrupt normal operation of the particles
sensor and indicated concentration
may be different from actual particles
concentration, accordingly.
• When using the appliance in the
following environment, the PM
concentration may be displayed
differently from the actual.
– Where there are influences such as
sofa, bed, carpet, cleaner, humidity,
smoke, fragrance, cosmetics,
perfume, insect, pet
– Where there are construction site,
roadside, factory, entrance, window,
ventilation
– Where there are affected by cooking
or using humidifiers, sprays or other
products which generate steam or
fine particles.
