Usage Features
The air purifier is equipped with a user-friendly control panel with several buttons and indicator lights:

- Fan Speed Button: Allows selection of fan speeds: AUTO, LOW, MED, and HIGH. In AUTO mode, the device automatically adjusts fan speed based on detected air quality.
- Sleep Mode Button: Activates a night mode, turning on a corresponding light and reducing operational noise for undisturbed sleep. Pressing it again deactivates the mode.
- Timer Button: Sets the operation duration to 1, 2, 4, or 8 hours.
- Air Quality Indicator Light: Displays air quality using three colors:
- Blue: Good air quality (Low fan speed in auto mode).
- Green: Neither good nor bad air quality (Mid fan speed in auto mode).
- Red: Bad air quality (High fan speed in auto mode).
- Reset Button: Flashes to indicate that the filter needs replacement. After replacing the filter, hold the RESET button for 3 seconds to turn off the light and restart the operation time calculation. The reset light is expected to come on after approximately 6 months of operation, assuming 12 hours of use per day.
