Kenmore PLASMAWAVE 85450 - Manual (Page 4)

AIR CLEANER FEATURES
A CAUTION: Fully assemble air filter before using {See Air Cleaner Set-Up on
following page). Note: Features vary according to model.
> Quiet Operation
This Kenmore air cleaner has a four-
speed fan with quiet operation that is
ideal for nighttime,
° Air Quaitty Sensor
This Kenmore air cleaner has an AIR
QUALITY sensor that detects the presence
of various pollutants in the air The unit
automatically increases fan speed to
clean more air volume and remove the
impurities quickly.
> Light Sensor
The built-in light sensor detects when the
room is dark and automatically dims the
lights of the control pane! and lowers the
fan speed for quiet and energy-efficient
operation. Once the room is dark, the light
sensor will keep the lights dim, and not
allow the fan to increase speed despite
what the AIR QUALITY sensor detects.
> Multi-Stage Cleaning
The air passes through multiple stages of
cleaning before returning to the room.
«PlasmaWave™ Technology
PlasmaWave™ Technology uses a strong
corona discharge to attack pollutants at
the molecular level.
' Sanltlzedl™ Treated Carbon Pre-Filter
The Carbon Pre-Filter collects large
particles, such as dust, pet hair, and lint,
it absorbs odor-causing gases, such as
those caused by cigarette
smoke, organic decay, and
cooking, and is treated with
Sanitize™’ to effectively
reduce the development of
bacteria and fungi. For
best performance, replace
every three months.
■ True HEPA Filter
Captures 99.99% of particles
and impurities as small as
0.3 microns, including
smoke, dust, pollen, and
other allergens. Replace
when the CHECK FILTER
indicator light turns on.
Advanced PlasmaWave™* Technology
PlasmaWave™ uses a strong corona discharge to break apart airborne poilutante at the
molecular level.
In a fradion of a second, PlasmaWave™ combines with naturally occurring water molecules in the
air (H
2
O) to create billions of Hydroxyl Radical trolecules (OH),
OH is an unstable molecule that seeks equilibrium by stealing hydrogen atoms from adjacent
molecules containing hydrogen (the pollutants), thereby reforming them into harmless molecules of
water, carbon dioxide, and other acceptable molecules.
The resuit is a measurable reduction of pollutants after the air passes through the Plasma
Generator (PlasmaWave™).
By reforming mcrfecules, PlasmaWave™ technology can reduce odors, as well as VOCs (chemical
vapors). It is also effective at reducing airborne microorganisms—bacteria and viruses.
The PlasmaWave™ technology Is harmless and the OH molecule only lives for a nanosecond
while it reforms surrounding molecuies. Most importantiy—unlike oid style ion technology—
PlasmaWave™ does not produce high levels of ozone as a by-product.
When combined with a fan-and-filter air-cleaning system, PlasmaWave™ offers an effective and
efficient way of cleaning the air of unwanted pollutants including dust, smoke, and pollen, as well
as VOCs, allergens, micro-organisms, and odors.
