Regularly as Noted in This Manual.

HOW THE AIR PURIFIER WORKS

Dirty, dust laden air is drawn through the rear
of the air puri

er and through the multi-stage

ltration system.

1. The washable foam pre-

lter captures larger

particles and extends the HEPA-type

lter’s

replacement cycle.

2. The HEPA-type

lter entraps 99% of all

smaller visible and non-visible particles down
to 2 microns in size.

3. The independent ioniser naturally improves

performance and freshens the air.

PRODUCT FEATURES
High, Medium and Low settings

For optimum air

ltration, operate your air puri

continuously on the Medium (2) setting. Its
rugged motor has been designed to give many
years of use. For quieter operation (such as in a
bedroom), select the Low (1) setting. When high
levels of air pollution are present, select the High
(3) setting.

Filter Service Indicator

The

lter service indicator light (L) eliminates

guesswork by letting you know when it is time to
replace the HEPA-type

lter. The light is green

when the

lter is fully clean, yellow when the

lter

is nearing replacement, and red when the

lter

needs to be replaced. After the

lter is replaced,

reset by pressing down 3 seconds on the

lter

reset button (I). Note that the green and red lights
will blink three times when the unit is turned on,
and the green light will blink three times after
being reset.

Timer

The timer allows you to run the air puri

at your convenience for 2, 4 or 8 hours, and
automatically turns the power off when time is up.

Ioniser

This appliance has an independent ioniser
feature which, when turned on, releases negative
ions into outgoing

ltered air to help the air

puri

cation process.

What Are Ions?

Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or
negative charge. They exist naturally around us:
in the air, water, and ground. Both positive and
negative ions are colourless, odourless, and
completely harmless.

How Does The Ioniser Work?

Negative ions help air puri

cation by attaching

themselves to very small airborne particles in the
room. These particles take on a negative charge
and may join with positively charged particles
such as dust, pollen, smoke, and pet dander to
form larger particles. The larger particles are then
more easily captured by the

lter system.

Important Notes:

Your ioniser may produce an occasional popping
or cracking sound. This is normal and occurs
when a small buildup of ions is discharged.
After extended use, you may notice dust around
the grills or front panel.
• This is caused by negative ions exiting the air

outlet, evidence of the ioniser’s air cleaning
effectiveness.

• You can remove the dust with a soft brush or

clean, damp cloth.

Larger particles may be attracted to positively
charged surfaces throughout the home, like walls
or

oors.

• This may occur more frequently when the

lter

is nearing the end of its useful product life and
unable to capture as many charged particles.

• Excessive amounts of pet dander, dust, or

smoke may decrease the life expectancy of
the

lter(s) and interfere with the ionisation

process.

To help prevent particles from attracting to
surfaces throughout your home:

• You may want to run the ioniser less often.
• Check the condition of the

lter(s) more

frequently.

CAUTION:

The ioniser in this appliance

produces less ozone than the UL* established
limits of 50ppb. However, in high concentrations,
ozone can be harmful to birds and small pets.
To prevent ozone buildup, we suggest using the
ioniser in well ventilated areas with the fan on.

*tested and listed by the Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc.

NOTE:

it is important to change the

HEPA-type

lter at recommended intervals. Using

the ioniser in conjunction with dirty

lters may

result in dirty particles exiting the air puri

er and

being attracted to walls, carpets, furniture and
other household objects. These dirty particles
may prove very dif

cult to remove.

PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Carefully unpack your air puri

er.

2. Select a

rm level place where there are

no obstructions to the air inlet (rear grill) or

ltered air outlet.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

2. Press the Power button (

3. You can then press the Speed button

(

) for the desired speed setting: HIGH (3),

MEDIUM (2), or LOW (1).

4. To release negative ions into the

ltered air,

press the Ioniser button (

) and the light will

illuminate.

5. You may set the timer so that it automatically

turns off when the desired time has elapsed.
Press the Timer button (

) until you reach

the desired number of hours you want the unit
to operate (2, 4 or 8). The number of hours
will light up and remain illuminated. When the
time has expired, the air puri

er will turn off. To

cancel the timer, press the Timer button (

)

one more time. You may also cancel the timer
operation by turning the Power button off.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. Turn the air puri

er off and unplug it before

cleaning.
