MAINTENANCE

FILTER LIFE INDICATOR – SETTING THE REPLACEMENT FREQUENCY

Bars are added to the filter life indicator section of the display in increments until it is time to change the filter, at which time all the bars will flash. Your filter will generally last a year, but this depends on a number of factors including your environment, construction details, pets, how often you run your air cleaner and of course personal choice. Because the life of the filter is dependent on so many factors, the amount of time between filter changes is selectable.

To change the setting (see Figure 4):

1.Remove the front of the Air Cleaner Control from the base.

2.Move the jumper to the desired position.

3.Replace the front of the Air Cleaner Control on to the base.

OFF

Filter change frequency is once per year

A, B & C

If you run your fan continuously, these settings will result in filter change reminders more frequently than once per year (A = 9 months, B = 6 months, C = 3 months).

If you do not run your fan continuously, these settings can be used to have the filter change reminders optimized to what you feel is best for your home (A is less frequent, C is more frequent).

Again, how often you should change your filter is dependent on a number of factors, and a little experimenting may be required to set it to your optimum change frequency.
