Step 1: Unplug and Disassemble

  • Unplug the air purifier from the power outlet.
  • Carefully disassemble the unit according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This may involve removing the front panel, filters, and other components.

Step 2: Clean the Outer Surface

  • If necessary, dampen the cloth slightly with water and mild dish soap to remove stubborn stains or dirt.

Step 3: Clean the Filters

  • Remove the air filters from the unit.
  • Vacuum the filters thoroughly using the soft brush attachment to remove loose dust and particles.
  • For heavily soiled filters, you can soak them in a solution of warm water and mild dish soap for 15-20 minutes. Rinse the filters thoroughly with clean water and allow them to dry completely before reinstalling.

Step 4: Clean the Ionizer (Optional)

  • If your Vollara air purifier has an ionizer, you can clean it using a cotton swab dipped in white vinegar.
  • Gently wipe down the ionizer needles to remove any dust or debris.

Step 5: Clean the Interior

Step 6: Reassemble the Air Purifier
