on low then increase 1 increment every 2
hours until you walk into the room and smell O

.
When you smell the O

, turn back 1 increment. O
3
production can be turned on and off as desired.
Fan Grill
Removable fan grill. Wash with warm soapy water,
dry completely before replacing.
(Unplug unit before removing)
Control for the negative ion generator is separate from the O
3
control. Negative
ions can be created around the clock to keep down dust and particulate.
O
3
also known as activated oxygen is normally kept at modest levels in occupied
spaces. To remove heavy odors, the units may be adjusted to a higher level for
a period of time. Some use a timer to completely deodorize the home or office
while away. Unused O
3
reverts back to O
2
in about an hour.
When the purifier no longer produces enough ozone to be effective, the ozone plate
should be cleaned. A good rule of thumb is every month. Some environments cause
ozone output to be reduced in a shorter time but other environments may take longer.
To clean a plate, first turn the unit
Off
and
unplug
from outlet. Then remove the 4”x4”
plates from back of unit. Pull plates firmly in the center to remove from the slot. With
plate firmly supported in the hand apply a solution of warm water and ammonia (50/50
solution is suggested) or a strong grease cutting detergent. Scrub with a stiff brush if
necessary. Be careful not to drop the plate or scrub off the silicon. Clean both the metal
screen and the ceramic tile. Rinse plate in hot water and
dry completely
before
installing. If available you may use a hair dryer to dry the plate. Reinstall plate, making
sure it is secured and flush with the back of the unit. Plug unit into a grounded electrical
outlet, turn unit on and start enjoying clean fresh air.
To clean the needlepoint ionizer, first turn the unit
Off
and
unplug
from the outlet.
Remove the fan grill cover. The needle point ionizer will be easy to find in front of the
fan by looking for two pieces of wire. Take a q-tip or cotton swab dipped in alcohol and
clean any dust that may have accumulated on the needlepoints. This process may be
done when plates are being cleaned. While you have the front grill cover off the unit you
may also clean the fan and grill itself. To clean the fan, simply wipe the blades with a
damp cloth or vacuum. The grill cover may also be cleaned with warm soapy water. Be
careful that the fan grill cover is completely dry before installing.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
If you suspect a problem with your unit check the following:
Make sure plate is clean (see above).
Unit is plugged in properly and turned on.
Check the fuse to make sure it is installed properly and not burned out. To replace
fuse, push in and turn fuse holder to the left, remove old fuse, replace with spare.
Use 1 amp fuse, 1.25 inches long.
Wall outlet is active
Check plate alignment making sure the ceramic plate is almost flush with back of
unit.
It is important that the purifier be properly grounded to avoid potential shock.
If the fan is not operating or after cleaning the plate no buzzing sound is detected on the
high setting of the O
3
please contact your local dealer.
Caution: No attempt should be made to remove the back panel of the unit,
as there are no user serviceable parts.
