CAUTION
Sharp Edges
Can cause personal injury.
Carefully handle the cell(s) or wear protective gloves to
avoid cuts from the sharp metal edges.
Cleaning the Cells and Prefilters
To assure optimum performance from the air cleaner, the cells and prefilters must be cleaned regularly and
the postfilters replaced regularly—twice a year with normal use or more frequently with heavy use. Washing
frequency varies, depending on the number of family members, pets, activities (such as cooking or woodworking)
and smoking habits. Use the Service Reminder Schedule at the end of this document to help establish and
maintain a regular cleaning schedule. Keep your Service Reminder Schedule in a convenient location.
NOTE:
To let the heating or air conditioning system operate normally while the cells are being washed, simply
turn off the air cleaner switch.
Cleaning your Prefilter
1.
The quickest and easiest way to clean your prefilter is to use the brush attachment of your vacuum cleaner to
vacuum the lint off the dirty side of the prefilter. Greasy dirt may require soaking the prefilter in a tub or rinsing
with the garden hose. Do not wash the prefilter in the dishwasher or car wash.
2.
The prefilter should be cleaned every 6 months or more frequently with heavy use. This will keep the prefilter
clean of air choking lint that can make your system work harder.
