CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
• Clean unit as necessary by wiping with a
dry, soft cloth; for stubborn stains, use a
warm, damp cloth.
• Do not use volatile fluids such as
benzene, paint thinner, or scouring
powder, as they may damage the
unit surface.
• Keep the unit dry.
• Clean the wall behind the air outlet
periodically, as it may become dirty.
Filter Cassette Replacement
The CHANGE FILTER indicator will signal
when to replace the filter cassette. The
replacement period will vary depending on
the hours of use, air quality, and location
of the unit. However, most filters in normal
use need to be replaced annually.
For your convenience, all three filters
(Washable Anti-Bacterial Pre-Filter,
True HEPA Filter, and Washable Nano-
Silver Mesh/Carbon Filter) come in one
pre-packaged replacement cassette.
For optimum unit efficiency, wash the
Washable Anti-Bacterial Pre-Filter and
Washable Nano-Silver Mesh/Carbon Filter
as described in Filter Cleaning every three
months.
Do not wash and reuse the True HEPA
Filter—it will not work effectively.
Replacement Procedure
1. Remove the front panel by grasping the
bottom outside edges and gently pulling
toward you.
2. Pull out the filter cassette by grasping
the tabs located on each side.
3. Remove the plastic wrap from the new
filter cassette.
WARNING: Before replacing or
cleaning any filters, make sure to
remove the power plug from the
wall outlet.
