Replacing the cell in cabinet

Replacing the cell in cabinet

After the cell has been washed, check for broken ionizer wires and bent collector plates. If broken wires are observed, return unit to Authorized Warranty Station for wire replacement. If bent collector plates are observed, carefully straighten with a screwdriver or other flat object. BE CERTAIN THAT NO TWO COLLECTOR PLATES ARE TOUCHING AS THIS WILL CAUSE ARCING AND PREVENT THE AIR CLEANER FROM OPERATING PROPERLY.

Remember that the electronic air cleaner has a cell key which prevents the cell from being positioned incorrectly. If the

cell seems stuck when being inserted or the access cover will not fit securely, check to be sure that the cell is being positioned properly. If excessive force is used, the cell or air cleaner unit could be damaged. Airflow arrows point toward fan motor.

If the cell is placed into the air cleaner while still damp, the indicator light may not come on until the cell is dry, which would normally take about two hours. If the cell is energized and annoying snapping sounds occur, the cell should be removed from the air cleaner and allowed to thoroughly dry.

Activated carbon filter

The activated carbon filter should be replaced when it is no longer effective in eliminating odors. The life of the carbon filter will depend on the concentration of odors and fumes in the air passing through the air cleaner. Under normal

circumstances, the carbon filter should last up to six months.

THE CARBON FILTER MUST BE IN PLACE FOR THE AIR CLEANER TO OPERATE.
