Polarized Plug Notice

This product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.

Do not defeat the purpose of the polarized plug.

Introduction

The air you breathe is filled with thousands of particles of air pollution.

Some of the pollutants like dust and lint are large enough to be visible to the naked eye, but pollutants such as pollen, smoke, germs, bacteria, etc., are microscopic in size. Your electronic air purifier has been designed to trap and remove visible and invisible pollutants and provide your home or office with the luxury of clean air living.

Airborne particles and odors are removed from air passing through the unit by the process of electrostatic precipitation and an activated charcoal odor absorber. The fragrance feature releases a pleasant aroma with the newly cleaned air.

How Your Electronic Air Purifier Works

Polluted air enters the air purifier through the front grill. As the air is pulled through, a pre-filter helps trap large particles (hair, lint, etc.). Then an electronic ionizer electrostatically charges smaller particles (dust, smoke, pollen). The positive charged particles then enter the negatively charged electronic cell, where the aluminum plates attract and retain the particles. It works like a powerful magnet and the particles remain until the electronic cell is cleaned. The air then passes through a charcoal odor absorber that helps remove household odors. Next, the negative ion generator releases negative ions to freshen the air. Finally, electronically cleaned air passes back into the room through the top grill.

1. MAIN POWER SWITCH: Turn the unit on by sliding the power switch to the blower speed you prefer: High ( ) for maximum cleaning -

Medium ( ) for normal use - Low ( ) for quiet operation.

2. FRAGRANCE CARTRIDGE: Fragrance compartment switch ejects drawer for access to fragrance cartridge. Insert fragrance cartridge and close drawer. One fragrance cartridge included.

3. IONIZER POWER SWITCH: Turns the ionizer ON or OFF. The indicator light will glow green when ON and functioning properly.

4. POWER INDICATOR LIGHT: The indicator light will glow green when the unit is operating normally. It will flash red when the collector cell requires cleaning. NOTE: The light will glow red for a moment when unit is first turned on. This is normal and only a test of the system.

5. AIR DIRECTION CONTROL: Slide switch on top of unit controls the louvers and enables you to direct airflow to desired areas.

NOTE: You may notice an occasional infrequent sharp snapping sound coming from your unit. This is a normal occurrence called

“arcing” and results as large particles of dust are collected in the ionizing-collecting cell. Should prolonged or continuous arcing occur, the ionizing-collecting cell should be thoroughly cleaned and dried completely (See “Cleaning Collector Cell”).

OXYGEN TANKS ARE BEING USED OR IN THE PRESENCE OF

COMBUSTIBLE GASES.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

●

Your air purifier works best if you leave it in operation all the time.

●

●

●

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.

every two months or as needed. IMPORTANT: DO NOT wash the charcoal odor absorber. Replace, if necessary.

Replacing Cell After Cleaning

1. Snap in the charcoal odor absorber. (fig. 3)

2. Slide in the pre-filter. (fig. 4)

3. Slide cell into cabinet, using handles. (fig. 2)

4. Replace front grill. Unit is now ready for operation. (fig. 1)

NOTE: An occasional “arcing” sound is normal when operating the unit immediately after cleaning the cell and should stop after a few minutes of operation.

Replacing Fragrance Cartridge

1. Open cartridge compartment by sliding the compartment release switch.

(fig. 5)

2. Remove fragrance disk from center of cartridge and replace with a new one. (fig. 6)

3. Close compartment until it locks. (fig. 7)

NOTE: One fragrance cartridge is included.

Cleaning

Troubleshooting Guide

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 the louver or grill areas.

Service problems that appear to be major can often be solved easily. You can be your own troubleshooter by reviewing the chart below. It pinpoints problems and how to correct them. Remember, check the simple things first.

Collector Cell

Indicator light is green under normal operation and flashes red when the cell requires cleaning. To clean, proceed as follows:

The red "WASH CELL" light will flash or illuminate when it is time to clean your cell. However, it is recommended that every four to eight weeks or if snapping sounds become frequent, clean your electronic air purifier. Your electronic air purifier is still filtering the air when the red light illuminates. Cleaning your electronic air purifier is a snap too... and a must for efficient operation.

1. Turn the unit off and unplug it from the electric power source. If wall mounted, remove unit from wall.

2. Remove front grill by unscrewing the retainer screw under the grill on the cabinet bottom. (fig. 1)

3. Pull the cell out of the cabinet by using the two small handles on the front of the cell. (fig. 2)

Wash cell

4. Snap off the charcoal odor absorber from the back of the cell. Change as necessary for continued odor removal. (fig. 3)

5. Slide off pre-filter. This can be cleaned with the cell and reused. (fig. 4)

NOTE: Handle the electronic cell with care. Damaged metal plates and/or broken wires will cause the air purifier to malfunction. (Do not wash charcoal odor absorber; it is disposable.)

Cleaning with Assail-A-Cell

®

Cell Cleaner:

6. Using Assail-A-Cell ® Cleaner, thoroughly saturate the cell and prefilter. 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.

IMPORTANT: Dry the collection cell thoroughly outside of the air purifier before reinstalling it into the air purifier. Ensure that all areas including corners and areas that may trap water are dry before reinstalling into the air purifier. DO NOT place a wet or damp collection cell in the air purifier.
