Important Safeguards

READ BEFORE USING YOUR AIR PURIFIER

1.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 only one way into a polarized 120-volt AC, 15-amp outlet. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a quali- fied electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. If an exten- sion cord must be used, it should also accept the wide blade plug and meet this electrical rating.

2.Do not place the cord under rugs, in traffic areas, or near heat sources.

3.Do not use the air purifier if the cord is damaged.

4.Always unplug the power cord before cleaning, servicing, or when the unit is not in use.

5.Do not place the air purifier near loose drapes, combustible materials, or heat-producing objects.

6.Remove protective poly bag from the black pre-filter and install. See “Care & Maintenance” section for instructions.

7.This air purifier is UL approved with Bemis by Essick Air brand filters in place. To maintain your UL rating, see your service center for all repairs (a complete listing of authorized service centers is in the back of this booklet). Use only Bemis by Essick Air brand replacement filters. To order filters, call 1–800–547–3888 or use the convenient order form in this booklet.
