Can the filters be cleaned?
Yes, but only the 5-micro pre-filter. AirHAWK
recommends simply vacuuming off the excess material collected on the
front of the green pre-filter approximately every six months. The second
stage HEPA filter cannot be cleaned and both filters must be replaced
when the control panel indicates replacement or 1 year.
My control panel indicates the ultraviolet lamp must be replaced, but
I can see it operating. Is it absolutely necessary to replace the lamp?
Yes, even though the ultraviolet lamp is operating it has diminished ultra-
violet output. To keep the system killing germs and bacterial effectively,
the ultraviolet lamp must be replaced once a year or the equivalent
elapsed time of one year.
I notice a slight odor when I am close to my new air purifier.
You will
notice a slight odor exiting from the air purifier when it is very new or you
have recently replaced the filter package. This odor will only be present for
a couple of days, and comes from accumulated moisture in the gas ab-
sorbing carbon, potassium permanganate, and zeolite layers of the filter
pack.
I have removed either the top or front grill to examine my new air pu-
rifier, and now the unit will not turn on. What is wrong the unit?
Both
the top and front grill have safety interlocks that will turn the unit off if re-
moved while in operation. If either grill is not properly reinstalled the unit
will not operate. Make sure the top grill is completely snapped into place
and the front grill is completely secured at the bottom.
Enjoy your
AirHAWK AH 265
Air Purifier in good health.
