Operation

Filter Run-Time Counters

The pre-filter and filter are critical to the proper operation of the air purifier. To help you know when to change the filters, your Hunter Air Purifier has Filter Run-Time Counters that will monitor the number of hours your filters have been in use. Although the exact life of the filters depends on the environment, the table below gives typical usage times of the filters.

Table 2: Typical Usage Times of the Filters

Filter Type

Typical Usage

 

 

Activated Carbon Pre-Filter

2000 hours

 

 

HEPA Filter

8000 hours

 

 

To check the run-hours for each filter:

1. Press the DISPLAY key to toggle among the 3 display modes – Clock, Pre-Filter,

DISP and Filter. The Filter or Pre-Filter indicator will illuminate when the run hours for that filter are displayed.

2. The display shows the number of run hours since the counter was reset.

Although the maximum display value is 9,999 hours, the counters can go indefinitely. To indicate that the counter is over 9,999 hours, the display will flash. For example, a run time of 12,000 hours is represented by a flashing 2,000 hours.

The values of the Pre-Filter and Filter Counters are stored in the air purifier’s memory.

The unit may be unplugged and moved without losing the pre-filter and filter counter values.

To properly track filter usage, the Pre-Filter and Filter Counters should be reset each time the filters are changed. Refer to Changing the Pre-Filter (pg. 19) or Changing the Filter (pg. 20) for instructions on how to reset the counters.
