Position the Device
Place the ventilator on a flat, level surface. Make sure that the air
inlet on the side of the device is not blocked. If you block the air flow
around the device, the ventilator may not work properly.
Install the Air Filter
The device uses a gray foam filter that is washable and reusable. The
reusable filter screens out normal environmental dust and pollens.
The filter must be in place at all times when the device is operating.
Two reusable gray foam filters are supplied with the device. If the
filter is not already installed when you receive the device, you must
install the filter before using the ventilator.
To install the filter:
1. Pull the Whisper Cap off by grasping it from the top and bottom.
2. Insert the gray foam filter into the filter area as shown and snap
the Whisper Cap back into place.
Supply Power to the Device
The device can operate on AC or DC power. The ventilator accesses
power from potential sources in the following order:
AC Power
•
External Battery
•
Detachable Battery Pack
•
Internal Battery
•
Using AC Power
An AC power cord is provided with the device.
1. Plug the socket end of the AC power cord into the AC power
inlet on the side of the device. To prevent accidental removal of
the AC power cord from the device, secure the AC power cord to
the device using the AC power cord retainer located on the back
of the device.
CAUTION
The reusable foam inlet filter is
required to protect the ventilator
from dirt and dust. Wash
periodically and replace when
damaged for proper operation.
