I had a <strong>problem<\/strong> replacing it. Initially, the Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact notified me via the control panel on the top of the device when it was time to replace the filter (!). <strong>I didn&#8217;t have a replacement filter, so I turned the air purifier off until I got one. A few weeks later, I got one, and I replaced it without turning the air purifier on before replacing the filter<\/strong>. According to the manual, I only need to press the Power button while in standby mode for 7 seconds to reset the filter after replacing it. However, this didn&#8217;t reset the filter\u2014it just turned the air purifier on, so I was confused as to why it wouldn&#8217;t reset the filter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"669\" data-attachment-id=\"843\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/pixert.com\/blog\/how-to-change-xiaomi-smart-air-purifier-4-compact-filter\/img_0061\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?fit=1614%2C1054&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1614,1054\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_0061\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?fit=300%2C196&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?fit=1024%2C669&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?resize=1024%2C669&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Xiaomi Smart Air Purifier 4 Compact Filter\" class=\"wp-image-843\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?resize=1024%2C669&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?resize=300%2C196&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?resize=768%2C502&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?resize=1536%2C1003&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pixert.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/IMG_0061.jpg?w=1614&amp;ssl=1 1614w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I searched Google and even YouTube, but I couldn&#8217;t find any information on how to fix this problem, which is why I&#8217;m writing about it here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>The solution turned out to be\u2026<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I reinstalled the old filter and turned on the air purifier.
