Replacing the HEPA Filter

The HEPA filter will normally last about
12 months before it must be replaced,
or approximately every fourth time the
carbon pre-filter is replaced. 

If the filter check gauge indicates that
the filter requires replacement, it is 
recommended that you first replace 
the carbon pre-filter and then use the
filter check gauge to check the filter
again. If the colored cylinder still does
not float up the gauge, the HEPA filter 
must also be replaced.

Turn off and unplug air purifier. Remove
the used HEPA filter by gripping the
sides and pulling outward, as shown.
Discard the used filter. It cannot be
cleaned.

Obtain a replacement HEPA filter.
Insert the unwrapped HEPA filter, hook
fastener side out, into the air purifier. 

NOTE:

Improper filter installation will

result in poor air filtration.
