Blue Signature Troubleshooting

I don’t notice a difference in the air quality when using the Blue Signature air purifier. Is it working? + -

Yes—the Blue Signature air purifier is actively working, even if the improvement in air quality isn't immediately noticeable. The unit continuously monitors airborne particles using its integrated laser particle sensor, which detects levels of PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10. When in Auto Mode, the fan speed automatically adjusts based on real-time air quality readings to deliver optimal performance without unnecessary noise or energy use.

To ensure you get the best results, follow these expert setup tips:

Remove the plastic wrap from the filter before using the air purifier. Operating the unit with the packaging still on will prevent proper filtration.
Use in an appropriately sized room—not larger than the recommended capacity of 705 sq. ft.
Allow for proper airflow—place the purifier where air can circulate freely around it.
Maintain clearance—keep at least 4 inches (10 cm) between the unit and surrounding objects.
Close doors and windows while the purifier is operating to prevent new pollutants from entering.
Replace the filter when the indicator on the control panel alerts you—this is crucial for maintaining performance.
Follow routine maintenance as outlined in your user manual.

With these steps, you can be confident that your Blue Signature purifier is delivering cleaner, healthier air—even if it's working quietly in the background.

When I switch between PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 in the Blueair app, does it change which pollutants the air purifier targets? + -

Great question—and the short answer is: No, switching between PM levels in the app does not affect how your Blue Signature air purifier functions.

The Blue Signature air purifier is equipped with advanced laser sensors that continuously monitor PM1, PM2.5, and PM10—three key categories of airborne particulate matter. In the Blueair app, you can toggle between these readings to see real-time air quality data for different particle sizes. However, this only changes what is displayed in the app; it does not change the filtration behavior of the device.

Regardless of which PM level you're viewing, the air purifier is always operating at full efficiency, removing particles as small as 0.1 microns from your indoor air—including smoke, dust, pollen, and other airborne pollutants.

In short, the display helps you better understand your air quality, while the purifier handles the rest—automatically and effectively.

What maintenance is recommended for Blue Signature? + -

To keep your Blue Signature air purifier operating at peak performance, Blueair recommends a combination of routine cleaning, filter care, and safety checks. Below is a complete breakdown of the recommended maintenance tasks:

1. General Cleaning

Frequency: Monthly or as needed

What to Do:

Unplug the device before cleaning.
Use a soft, clean cloth to wipe down the top and exterior surfaces.
Avoid harsh chemicals, gasoline, or solvents, as these can damage the casing and electronics.

2. Pre-Filter Maintenance

Frequency: Every 2–4 weeks (more often if you have pets or high dust levels)

What to Do:

Vacuum using a soft brush attachment
Or wash it according to label instructions and air dry thoroughly before reattaching

3. Filter Replacement

Frequency: Every 9–12 months, or when the filter replacement indicator turns red

What to Do:

Follow the step-by-step replacement instructions in the manual.
After replacing, reset the filter indicator by:
Holding the Fan Speed button for 15 seconds, or
Using the Blueair app

5. Sensor Care (Air Quality Sensors)

Frequency: If air quality readings seem inaccurate

What to Do:

Power off the device
Clean around the sensor vents with a dry cloth or low-suction vacuum
Restart the unit

My Blue Signature air purifier won’t turn on. What should I do? + -

If your Blue Signature air purifier isn’t powering on, follow these expert troubleshooting steps to identify and resolve the issue:

Step 1: Confirm the unit is receiving power

Unplug the device, then inspect the power cable for any visible damage. If damaged, discontinue use and contact Blueair Customer Support.
Plug the power cable firmly into a working electrical outlet.
Press the On/Standby button or select a fan speed from the control panel (depending on your model).
Check for:
LED indicators lighting up.
Airflow coming from the outlet (place your hand over it to feel for moving air).

Step 2: Test the power source

Try plugging the air purifier into a different outlet.
Test the original outlet with another device (e.g., a lamp) to ensure it’s working properly.

Step 3: Check for firmware and power compatibility

If your air purifier is Wi-Fi enabled, connect it to the Blueair App to ensure it has the latest firmware update.
If using a power converter, confirm that the unit’s voltage requirements (see the rating label) match your country’s electrical standards.

Step 4: Perform a factory reset

Press and hold the power button until all LEDs blink four times—this may take 15–30 seconds depending on the model.
Wait—do not press any buttons. After about 5 seconds, all LEDs will blink twice to confirm the reset, including the red filter indicator.
The unit will enter Standby Mode once the reset is complete.
Re-connect the air purifier to the Blueair App, if applicable.

If your air purifier still does not turn on after these steps—or if you notice any signs of damage—please contact Blueair Customer Support. Our team is ready to assist you and ensure your device is working as it should.
