How the Ficus Tree Air Purifier works:
Stage 1 – A washable filter that contains 5 layers
• Layer 1: Friction caused by air passing through the first honeycomb filter creates Layer 1: Layer 1:
an electrostatic charge that captures and retains pollutants, dust and dirt.
• Layer 2: Open Pore Polyurethane Foam. This foam is highly permeable and
has an extremely high dust-holding capacity.
• Layer 3: A second honeycomb filter that also captures and retains pollutants,
dust and dirt.
• Layer 4: A second Open Pore Polyurethane Foam.
• Layer 5: A third honeycomb filter that captures and retains pollutants, dust and
dirt. Layers 1-5 are contained in a single, easy to clean cassette.
Operation
Connect the plug at the end of the AC/DC adaptor supply cord to the jack at the
back of the pot and plug the AC/DC adaptor into an appropriate outlet.
Then, select the desired operating speed, High or Low.
The AMCOR Ultra Clean Ficus Tree Air Purifier may be operated 24 hours a day.
Check the operation of the AMCOR Ultra Clean Ficus Tree Air Purifier. When the
blower turns on, your air purifier is in operation.
If the unit fails to operate:
• Check whether the power control is switched on.
• Check whether the AC/DC adaptor is connected properly to the
AMCOR Ultra Clean Ficus Tree Air Purifier.
• Check whether the AC/DC adaptor is securely plugged into the outlet.
• Check whether the outlet is functioning by plugging a lamp into it.
Switch is in the Middle Position:
Unit is off.
Switch is in the Lower Position:
Blower at Low Speed for quiet operation and
the Ionizer is on.
Switch is in the Upper Position:
Blower at High Speed for powerful air purification
and the Ionizer is on.
OPTIONAL (not included) Carbon pre-filter + 95 % ASHRAE GRADE
pleated 4 air filter in one cassette (in place of washable filter).
The carbon pre-filter absorbs smells and bad odors, including tobacco smoke. It also
captures larger air pollutants like lint, hair and large dust particles. The sophisticated
95% ASHRAE GRADE pleated air filter is a microfiber glass air filtration material
with the remarkable ability to trap microscopic particles while allowing pure air to
pass through.
The filter material itself is made much the same way as paper, except that glass fibers
are used instead of wood fibers. This flat filter material is then pleated to give it an
extended surface area, thereby increasing its air handling capacity. The 95% ASHRAE
GRADE pleated air filter has an exceptionally large filtering surface area: the unpleated
area of this filter is 0.3 m
2 (3.2ft 2 ). The filter is maintenance-free, durable and does
not lose its 95% efficiency over its lifetime. This optional filter may be ordered from
Amcor. Call 201-460-8100.
Stage 2 - Ionization
This stage is of utmost importance as it
restores the natural balance of the air.
After the air is purified, it is further
cleaned and ionized at the air outlet
using Amcor’s patented carbon
filament process.
• Ionization substantially reduces the
amount of indoor bacteria in the air.
• Ionization can frequently
help asthma and allergy sufferers.
• Ionization may help relieve weather-related maladies
such as headaches, nausea and physical aches.
• Ionization may help lower tension, resulting in sounder sleep.
