Additional Information

WARNING: DO NOT USE THIS ELECTRONIC AIR PURIFIER WHEN OXYGEN TANKS ARE BEING USED OR IN THE PRESENCE OF COMBUSTIBLE GASES.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

●No air cleaner can protect against the harmful effects of secondhand smoke.

●Place or mount the Air Purifier near a standard electrical outlet. Do not block either the air intake or outlet grill.

●Never place your Air Purifier on soft surfaces (such as bed, sofas or carpet), near computers or next to sources of heat (such as stove tops, ovens, etc.)

●Make sure the front grill is securely locked in place.

●A safety switch is installed behind the grill of your electronic Air Purifier. If the grill is not properly secured in place, the unit will not operate. If your unit fails to operate, remove the front grill and reinstall it, being sure that the lower right-hand side of the grill (next to the control panel) is firmly locked in place.

●Plug the power cord into the nearest available standard electrical outlet. (See data label on bottom of your Air Purifier for electrical specifications and power consumption.)

●Do not use an extension cord to supply power to your Air Purifier.

MAINTENANCE

of the air purifier.

Cleaning the Cabinet

You can clean the Air Purifier cabinet with mild, non-abrasive cleanser and a soft cloth. IMPORTANT: Unplug the unit from its electrical power source. Do not spray cleansers or furniture polish into louvers or grill areas.

Cleaning the Electronic Collector

Cell

IMPORTANT: Do not try to clean the Collector

Cell by inserting a cloth, brush, or other device between the cell plates. The Collector

Cell should be cleaned with Oreck’s Assail-A-Cell®cleaner or using soap and water (see

Step 6, in this section). Inserting objects in the Collector Cell may damage it.

Indicator light is green under normal operation and flashes red when the Collector Cell requires cleaning. The red "WASH CELL" light will flash or illuminate

when it is time to clean your Collector Cell. Your Air Purifier is still filtering the air when the red light illuminates.

It is not necessary to wait for the red "WASH CELL" light before cleaning the Collector Cell. Even if the “WASH CELL” light is not red, Oreck recommends cleaning the Collector Cell every 4 to 8 weeks, or more often if snapping becomes frequent.

Cleaning your Oreck Air Purifier is a snap too... and a must for efficient operation. To clean proceed as follows:

1.Turn the unit off and unplug it from the electric power source.

If wall mounted, remove unit from wall.

2.Loosen the front grill retainer screw at the front of the cabinet bottom. Press in the lock (half-moon) on the left side and remove the grill (fig. 3).

3.Pull the Collector Cell out of the cabinet by using the two

4.Snap off the Charcoal Odor Absorber from the back of the Collector Cell. Change as necessary for continued odor removal (fig. 5).

5.Slide off Pre-Filter. This can be cleaned with the Collector Cell and reused (fig. 6).

NOTE: Handle the Electronic Collector Cell with care. Damaged metal plates and/or broken wires will cause the Air Purifier to malfunction. (Do not wash the disposable Charcoal Odor Absorber.)

6.Oreck’s Assail-A-Cell®cleaner is an excellent way to clean an Electronic Collector Cell. Be sure to spray between each cell plate and cover every surface. Allow product to soak for a few minutes, not allowing it to dry. Rinse thoroughly with water.

For extremely heavy deposits, repeat the process.

If you prefer not to use Oreck’s Assail-A-Cell®cleaner, you may also decide to soak the Electronic Collector Cell in warm water in a kitchen sink or bathtub. Mild dish detergent (powder or liquid) may be added to the water to help break down the dirt on the Collector Cell. The Collector Cell should be allowed to soak for two to three hours.

Tobacco smoke (tar) is especially hard to remove from the Collector Cell. If the Purifier has been cleaning tobacco smoke, the Collector Cell may need to soak longer, or it may need to be cleaned a second time.

In either case, the Collector Cell should be allowed to air dry before re-inserting it. Oreck does not recommend the use of heated or compressed air as part of the drying process.

AIR8 Series specifications

The Oreck AIR8 Series represents a significant advancement in air purification technology, providing an innovative solution for maintaining clean and healthy indoor air. Designed with an emphasis on ease of use and efficiency, the AIR8 series showcases a range of features tailored to meet the needs of modern households.

One of the standout characteristics of the Oreck AIR8 is its powerful four-stage air purification system. This system effectively traps and neutralizes airborne particles, including dust, pollen, pet dander, and smoke. The first stage involves a washable pre-filter that captures larger particles, ensuring the longevity of the subsequent filters. Following this, the True HEPA filter captures up to 99.97% of particles as small as 0.3 microns, providing a substantial reduction in allergens and irritants.

In addition to the HEPA filter, the AIR8 Series incorporates an Odor Control Filter that neutralizes unpleasant odors, resulting in fresher air quality. This feature is particularly beneficial for households with pets or cooking odors, as it ensures a cleaner and more inviting environment.

Another important aspect of the Oreck AIR8 is its silent operation. Unlike many air purifiers that can create distracting noise, the AIR8 operates quietly, making it suitable for a variety of settings, including bedrooms, living rooms, and offices. Users can enjoy clean air without the disturbance of loud fan noises, allowing for a more tranquil atmosphere.

The Oreck AIR8 also features a sleek and compact design, allowing it to blend seamlessly into any decor. Its lightweight construction makes it easy to move from one room to another, providing flexible air purification wherever it is needed most.

Energy efficiency is another significant characteristic of the AIR8 Series. It utilizes advanced technology to provide powerful purification while consuming minimal energy. This makes it not only an eco-friendly choice but also a cost-effective option for continuous air quality improvement.

With its combination of advanced filtration, quiet operation, sleek design, and energy efficiency, the Oreck AIR8 Series stands out in the crowded market of air purifiers. It provides an essential solution for those seeking to enhance their indoor air quality and create a healthier living environment.
