CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Turn off the power switch and disconnect electrical cord from wall socket before any cleaning or maintenance of air cleaner.
Stage 1 Filters |
|
(a) Open the access door. As you remove filters one at a time, |
|
clean each one as you remove it with a vacuum cleaner, |
|
preferably fitted with a HEPA filter. These filters can also be |
|
washed with a mild detergent. Make sure they are completely |
|
dry before placing back in the unit. |
|
Use your vacuum’s brush nozzle to avoid damaging the filters. | (a) |
After cleaning filters insert and close the door. The |
|
do not need to be replaced. Follow this procedure every two |
|
months or more often for sensitive people, example: each time |
|
you vacuum your home. |

Stage 2 Filter (Main Filter)
Press the cover release button and lift off cover. (b) Remove the carbon and main filter. Clean the main filter with a vacuum cleaner fitted with a brush nozzle. Vacuum the grill inside the filter housing. Lift the grill using the handle. Remove the wire holder carefully with both hands keeping it level and upright. Clean the inside of the air cleaner with a brush or a crevice nozzle. If necessary, use a damp cloth with mild detergent. Replace the wire holder carefully with both hands and close the grill. (If the wire is broken please refer to the replacing corona wire section.) (c) Replace the main filter. Make sure the guides are properly set in the grooves when you put the filter back. Replace the carbon filter and cover. Push the reset button to cancel the clean filter indicator light.
Stage 3 Filter (Carbon Filter)
(b)
(c) 
Replace every 3 to 6 months.
TROUBLESHOOTING
•If the fan does not operate, (i.e. If you cannot feel a low air current.), check that the power cable is undamaged and that it is plugged in. Check that the cover and filters are correctly set. If the fan still does not operate, contact the authorised Electrolux Service Station.
•If the Stage 2 filter does not get dirty or if the light indicator flashes, check if the corona assembly has been dislodged from its operating position or the corona wire in the wire holder is broken. If the assembly is in place, the wire is not broken and the light is still flashing, contact the authorised Electrolux Service Station.
•A continuous crackling noise from the Stage 2 filter indicates the need for replacement. If this does not remedy the problem, contact the authorised Electrolux Service Station. (A slight hissing noise from the filter is normal, especially when it is new.)
•If clean filter indicator remains on after main filter has been cleaned, check to make sure the reset button for filter replacement has been pushed.
