If the Clean Booster on your LG PuriCare™ 360 air purifier is not rotating, this is usually normal.
When the operation mode is set to [AI(Smart)] / [Auto], the Clean Booster only rotates automatically when the air quality is Very Poor (red).
To check if it is working properly, switch the mode to [Clean Booster Mode].
Please note
- Buttons may not respond: In [AI] / [Auto] mode, operation is automatically controlled based on air quality. The [Speed], [Booster Speed], and [Swing] buttons will not respond.
- Operation delay: When the air quality improves from red/orange to green/blue (Moderate/Good), the Clean Booster will stop rotating and lower automatically after about 5 minutes.
Why isn’t the Clean Booster rotating?
The Clean Booster operates differently depending on the selected mode.
- [AI(Smart)] / [Auto] mode: The Clean Booster operates automatically based on the overall air quality.
When the air quality improves, it may stop rotating or blowing air. - [Clean Booster Mode]: You can manually control the rotation using the remote control or the buttons on the unit.
