HOW THE AIR PURIFIER WORKS
Dirty, dust laden air is drawn through the front of
the air purifier and through the multi-stage
filtration system.
1. The carbon filter will help clear odours making
the air cleaner and fresher.
2. The HEPA filter entraps 99.97% of all smaller
visible and non-visible particles down to 0.3
microns in size.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Dual position
The unit can be placed either upright or on its side,
flush against the wall. When positioning the unit
be sure that the air inlet grill, filters and air outlet
grill are not blocked, to ensure maximum air flow.
FILTER LIFE INDICATOR
Filter Window
On the front grill, there is a small opening that will
enable you to see your carbon filter at a glance.
As it picks up dust and debris, the window will turn
to gray indicating the air purifier is working and
you may need to change the carbon filters.
HEPA Filter Indicator
When the HEPA filter is approaching the end of
its useful life, the indicator light will turn red.
When the red indicator light starts flashing, it is
time to change the HEPA filter.
Carbon Filter Indicator
When the carbon filter indicator light turns yellow,
it is time to change the carbon filter.
Timer
The timer allows you to run your air purifier at
your convenience, for up to 16 hours. To operate
using the timer mode, at the control panel on the
air purifier, turn the unit on and select a speed.
To activate the timer, press the up and down
speed buttons at the same time for approximately
3 seconds.
The numbers in the display will begin flashing and
the green LED light will appear to indicate timer
function is on. Push “+” or “-” button to cycle through
the timer options (1- 16). When you have reached
desired hours that you want your air purifier to run,
release finger from the button and the numbers
will stop flashing and timer will be on. The air
purifier will then operate for that period of time
and shut off automatically. Speeds can be changed
once the timer is activated by pushing the “+” or
“-“ buttons. To view the time left to run once timer
has been set, push the “+” and “-“ at the same time
for 3 seconds. You can manually turn the air purifier
