Americair 3050, 2550 Installation, THREE-STAGEFILTRATION STAGE 1 Prefilter, STAGE 2 HEPA filter

Thank you for purchasing an Amaircare® portable air filtration system. With proper care and maintenance, your Amaircare® system will provide many years of reliable service, improving the quality of your air.

INSTALLATION

1.Place the unit in the area where you want the cleanest air.

2.Plug the unit into a grounded outlet. The cord has either a 110V or a 220V plug depending on the area in which the unit was sold.

3.Turn the unit on by rotating the control dial until you hear or feel it click. The unit will start on the “HIGH” position. To reduce the airflow continue to rotate the control dial clockwise.

4.To turn the unit off, rotate the control dial counter-clockwise passed the “HIGH” position until you hear or feel the click.

CAUTION

1.Make sure the cord is not in the path of people walking or where anything can be rolled over it.

2.Do not place any objects on top of the unit or allow anyone to sit on it.

3.NEVER place any liquids or plants on the unit. Moisture could leak into the unit and damage the filter media or electrical components.

4.The air filtration system discharges the cleaned air through the vents near the top on two of the six sides. On “HIGH” the velocity of the air coming out is high to enhance circulation throughout the area being cleaned. If the airflow is bothersome or creates a draft, turn the unit until the air is directed toward an unoccupied area of the room.

NOTE: You may notice a slight “new” smell from the unit when your first turn it on. This is normal and harmless and will dissipate within a few days.
