Routine Care of the Air Pulse Generator
Cleaning the Generator
WARNING: Always remove the power cord before servicing the generator.
The exterior of the generator may be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild
disinfectant. Any cleaning liquids should first be sprayed on a cloth and then used.
Avoid getting liquid inside the generator.
Replacing a Filter
Routine preventive maintenance requires the air filter to be replaced every six months
or every 200 hours, whichever occurs first. A regular slot screwdriver is needed to
perform this task. Contact Electromed or your service provider for additional filters.
Steps:
1. Place the generator in the vertical orientation, remove filter access door by
loosening two slot-head screws on the top of the generator. The screws are
captured and will remain with the door.
2. Rotate and pull up on the access door.
3. Remove the air filter.
4. Install a new air filter.
5. Replace the filter access door screws.
