CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Keep the Therapure
®
540 functioning properly by cleaning the permanent HEPA-type Filter every
four weeks of use. More frequent cleaning will be necessary if the unit is located in an area with a
high level of airborne contaminants (excessive amounts of smoke, pet dander, etc.).
Exposing the Therapure
®
540 to candle/oil/fireplace soot and smoke is not recommended and will
require more frequent cleaning.
NOTE: Always make sure the Therapure
®
540 is turned off and unplugged before cleaning.
»
Vacuuming will restore performance of the permanent HEPA-type Filter. However,
the filter may appear stained. This is normal and does not affect performance in any way.
»
Do not use water or any household cleaners or detergents to clean the permanent
HEPA-type Filter.

The inlet grill may be cleaned (after unit is turned off and unplugged) with a vacuum
