AIR CLEANER SAFETY

PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

1.

Read all instructions before using appliance.

2.

To avoid fire and shock hazard, plug the appliance

 

directly into a 120V AC electrical outlet.

3.

If the filter is covered by a bag when shipped: remove

 

plastic bag before use.

4.

Keep the cord out of heavy traffic areas. To avoid fire

 

hazard NEVER put the cord under rugs, near heat

15.WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, DO NOT use this air purifier with any solid- state speed control device.

16.DO NOT place anything on top of the unit.

PLEASE SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

THIS APPLIANCE HAS A POLARIZED PLUG (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician

to install the proper outlet.

Finally, using your ionizer may result in an occasional popping or cracking sound. This is a normal sound, generally caused by a small build-up of ions that, when discharged, cause the popping or cracking sound.

NOTE: It is important to replace the HEPA-Type filter at the recommended intervals.

Using the ionizer in conjunction with dirty filters may result in dirty particles exiting the air purifier and being attracted to walls, carpets, furniture or other household objects.

These dirty particles may prove very difficult to remove. Homes with excessive amounts of pet dander, dust, or smoke may decrease the life expectancy of the HEPA- Type filtration system and may interfere with the ionization process. You may want to run the Ionizer less often and check the condition of the HEPA-Type filter(s) more frequently in order to reduce particles from being attracted to surfaces throughout your home as mentioned above.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1.Plug into a 120V AC electrical outlet.

2.Select the desired operating speed. Air Purifiers have three speed settings. You can select from HIGH ( ),

MEDIUM ( ) or LOW ( ) by moving the knob to the desired setting.

3.To release negative ions into the filtered air, turn the ionizer knob to ON ( ) and the light will illuminate.

4.For optimum air filtration, it is recommended to operate the air purifier continuously. Its rugged motor has been designed to give many years of use.

For continuous use, it is recommended to operate the air purifier at the MEDIUM ( ) setting. For quieter operation or use in a bedroom, select the LOW ( ) setting. When high levels of air pollution are present, select the HIGH ( ) setting to quickly circulate and filter the room air.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

Turn off and unplug the unit before cleaning.

1.The outside of the air purifier can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth.

2.The air inlet grill can be removed and washed in warm soapy water (not dishwasher safe). Dry before replacing in the unit.

3.The air outlet grill can be cleaned of dust with a small, soft brush.

WARNING: Do not allow moisture to come in contact with the main housing of the air purifier.

FILTER REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

1.

Every few weeks, check the condition of the filter.

2.

Remove the air inlet grill. Remove and examine the

 

foam pre-filter. If it has collected a noticeable amount

 

of dust or lint, remove it from the inlet of the grill and

 

registers, radiators, stoves or heaters.

5.

To protect against electrical hazards DO NOT immerse

 

in water or other liquids. Do not use near water.

6.

Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is

 

used by, or near children or by disabled persons.

7.

Always unplug the air purifeir before moving it,

 

opening the grill, changing the filters or whenever the

 

air purifier is not in use. Unplug by pulling on the plug

 

and not the cord.

8.

NEVER drop or insert any object into any openings.

9.

Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or

 

plug, if motor fan fails to rotate, after the appliance

 

malfunctions, or if it has been dropped or damaged in

 

any manner. Return appliance to manufacturer for

 

examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment or

 

repair.

10.Use appliance only for the intended household use as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire,

DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THIS POLARIZED PLUG IN ANY WAY.

The length of the cord used on this product was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the air cleaner (refer to the rating label placed on the air purifier). Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord where it cannot be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

IONIZER

Your Air Purifier has an independently controlled ionizer, which, when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air. Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative charge. These ions exist naturally around us, in the air, water and ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless, odorless and completely harmless. Negative ions help the air purification process by attaching themselves to very small airborne particles in

PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1.Carefully unpack your Air Purifier. Select a firm, level place where there are no obstructions to the air inlet or filtered air outlet. A good location in a room is approximately 1 foot away from the wall, in a central location of your home.

2.Remove the air inlet grill by grasping the finger tabs on both sides.

3.Remove the HEPA-Type filter by gripping on both sides and pulling forward.

4.Remove protective plastic bag from the filter cartridge.

5.This model utilizes hang tabs and a filter clip. The clip can only be attached to the tabs on the filter in only one way. The filter clip should easily slide onto the filter hang tab with only a small amount of pressure. DO NOT use force while attaching the clip to the filter. Align the clip on the top of the HEPA-Type filter with the rails on the inside of the purifier unit. Gently slide the filter onto the rail (Figure 1).

wash it in warm soapy water. Rinse and drip dry the

pre-filter thoroughly before replacing it into the inlet of

the grill.

3. Check the condition of the HEPA-Type filter. If the filter

is dirty, remove the used HEPA-Type cartridge and

properly dispose of it. Do NOT try to wash and re-use

the HEPA-Type filter. Replace with a new HEPA-Type

filter, removing the protective polybag before inserting

into the air purifier.

NOTE: The side with the soft gasket should face

inward.

4. Filter Life – Under normal conditions of continuous

use, the HEPA-Type filter will operate efficiently for 3-6

months.

Replacement filters are available from your local retailer or by calling 1-800-253-2764.

electric shock or injury to persons. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause hazards.

11.Do not use outdoors.

12.Never block the air openings, or place on soft surface, such as bed or sofa, as this could cause the unit to tip over thus blocking the air intake opening.

13.Keep unit away from heated surfaces and open flames.

14.DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or mechanical functions on this unit. Doing so will void the warranty. The inside of the unit contains no user serviceable parts. All servicing should be performed by qualified personnel only.

the room.

These particles take on a negative charge and may join with positively charged particles such as dust, pollen, smoke and pet dander to form larger particles that are then more readily captured by the filter system, or may be attracted to positively charged surfaces throughout the home, like walls or floors. This may occur more frequently when the filter is nearing the end of its functional life expectancy and is able to capture less of the charged particles.

You may also note after extended use, that dust has collected around the grills or front panel. This is from the ionization affect caused by the negative ions exiting from the air outlet. This is additional evidence of the air cleaning effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be easily removed with a clean, damp cloth or soft brush.
