Awair 2nd Edition’s Display Modes

Awair 2nd Edition allows you to set your default display to show the current value of an individual air quality factor: Temperature, Humidity, CO2, Chemicals, and Dust (PM2.5). You can also set the default display to show current time like a clock or to show Awair score indicating overall air quality status.

 

Default Display Mode

To set default display mode in your Awair App,

  1. Open your Awair app

  2. Tap on the 'gear icon' to navigate to your Awair’s Settings

  3. Tap 'Awair display'

  4. Enable 'Customize Default Display'

  5. Choose your preferred display mode (Awair score / Individual air quality factor / Clock)


Knocking Awair to manually adjust the display

When you knock on the top of the wooden frame twice you can switch between display modes temporarily. The secondary display will show for 10 seconds before going back to the original display mode. Make sure you firmly knock twice on the top middle portion of the wooden frame.

 

Toggle switch to manually adjust the display

You can manually check the real-time sensor readings by toggling up and down the switch on the rear-side of your Awair.
