PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HARMONY™ BACKGROUND
First, thank you for choosing a Holmes Harmony ™ Air Purifier.
The Harmony air purifier was created because consumers, like
you, provided a lot of feedback about what you wanted in an
air purifier. With the features consumers want in mind, we
worked with sound experts to make the unit quieter, engineers
to make it smaller with more advanced technologies. We created
a patented modular filter system for easier filter replacement.
The result is an air cleaner that is in harmony with your
environment, it cleans your air and fits your life.
