Periodic maintenance is required to ensure that your AP3000 II operates properly.
The unit will display a PERFORM CLEANING reminder when it is time to perform regular maintenance. If you are
operating your unit in a severely polluted environment, cleaning of the unit, ActivePure® Cell, and filters should
be done more frequently. Shown here are basic procedures that should be carried out to keep your unit running
at top performance.
Cleaning the Case:
Wipe the unit with a soft cloth dampened (not wet) with water. Do not use chemicals or solvents. Vacuum
the front and rear grills periodically to remove any lint buildup.
Cleaning the ActivePure® Cell:
Remove the ActivePure® Cell(s) and carefully vacuum accumulated lint. Do not wash the ActivePure® Cell.
Damage from water may result.
Filter Assembly Cleaning:
You have two options to clean the Filter Assembly (including the PreFilter, Foam Filter, and Honeycomb Filter)
when it is visibly dirty:
1. Remove the Filter Assembly from the unit (see page 11 for removal instructions), and with a hand-held
vacuum, remove the heavy particulate from all parts. This method will extend the life of the filters; or
2. Remove the Filter Assembly from the unit (see page 11 for removal instructions), carefully vacuum, then
wash the Prefilter, Foam Filter, and Honeycomb Filter in hot water (do not use soap). Allow to dry prior to
reinstalling. Replace if damaged.
Filter Assembly Replacement:
Contact our activTek Distributer for replacement filters. See pages 10 - 11 for removal and installation
instructions.
Changing the ActivePure® Cell:
The ActivePure® Cell should be changed when REPLACE RCI CELL appears on the display, or every twelve (12)
months when used continuously or two (2) years if used less than 12 hours a day, whichever comes first. To
change an ActivePure® Cell, follow the removal and installation instructions on pages 11 - 12.
