Cleaning the Collector Cell

Note: The collector cell may require more frequent cleaning if “arcing” occurs. Arcing is a sharp snapping sound that occurs when large particles of dust are collected in the collector cell. If prolonged or continuous arcing occurs the collector cell should be cleaned.

IMPORTANT: Do not try to clean the collector cell by inserting a cloth, brush, or other object between the cell plates.

1To remove the collector cell, turn the yellow latches counterclockwise. Pull straight out by the black handle.

2Place collector cell in sink, bathtub, or other location where cleaner and contaminants will rinse away without damaging surfaces.

3Spray Oreck Assail-A-Cell®cleaner thoroughly

between each cell plate. Allow the cleaner to soak for a few minutes and rinse with clean water. Do not let the cleaner dry on the collector cell.

An alternative method to clean the collector cell

is to soak it in warm water for two to three hours.	3
Mild liquid dish detergent may be used to help

break down dirt. Rinse thoroughly with water. Note: Do not put in dishwasher or insert objects to clean the collector cell. Do not wash the collector cell with bleach or other abrasive cleaners.

Tough residue such as tar from tobacco smoke may need additional applications or longer soaking.

4 Allow to dry completely outside of the air purifier. Do not use heated or compressed air to dry. IMPORTANT: Do not reinsert the collector cell until it is completely dry. If the “Check Collector Cell” light blinks red after replacing the collector cell, then the collector cell is still wet. Remove the collector cell and allow it to finish air drying.

5 Place the collector cell back into the air purifier by sliding it straight into the cabinet. Lock the yellow latches by turning clockwise.

6 Close the cabinet door securely.
