BEFORE OPERATING THE AIR PURIFIER
OPERATING THE AIR PURIFIER
Air Quality Monitor senses and detects the amount of particulate matter (PM2.5) in the air.
The light circle around the display will change colors, indicating the air quality level in the room. The particulate matter numeric value (AQI) will be displayed. See values and status ranges in chart below.
Also listed are the color values displayed in the circle and the fan speed "AUTO" mode will select based on the particulate matter that is detected.
Light Color | Particulate Matter Value (Range) | Air Quality Status | Auto Fan Speed |
Green | 0-100 | Good | 1 |
Yellow | 101-200 | Average | 2 |
Red | 201-300 | Poor | 3 |
Red | 301-500 | Very Poor | 4 |
RESETTING THE AIR PURIFIER
The air purifier is equipped with a motor protection circuit. If activated, the overload warning will initiate and cut off the power. An audible warning "chime" will sound for 60 seconds along with a flashing "Err" warning on the display. To restart the unit, unplug the unit for 10 minutes, then plug back in and power on.
The filter reset indicator light will flash when it is time to replace your filter. Depending on usage and environmental conditions the filter will last approximately 6 months. The inside pleats of the filter will turn from white to grey when it is dirty and needs replacing. It is important to maintain and change the filter to continue to optimize the performance of the air purifier.
Do NOT wash and re-use the filter. Please contact Customer Service or visit our website www.guardiantechnologies.com to purchase a replacement filter. Use only Genuine Guardian Technologies replacement parts to optimize the performance of your air purifier.

CLEANING
BODY OF THE APPLIANCE
Regularly clean the inside and outside of the body to prevent dust from collecting.
PRE-FILTER SCREEN
The pre-filter/charcoal layer collects larger dust and debris and should be cleaned monthly or more frequently depending on use. Remove and clean regularly with the brush attachment of your vacuum cleaner. This will remove the lint and dirt and help maintain the life of the filter.
(See filter replacement to locate and clean or remove the filter).
Replacement pre-filters are available by visiting our website at www.guardiantechnologies.com.
Note: Do NOT stick any foreign objects or your fingers inside the unit.
Do NOT use gasoline, benzene, thinner, harsh cleaners, etc. on and/or in the unit while cleaning as they will damage the products. NEVER use alcohol or other solvents.
What is CADR?
CADR stands for "Clean Air Delivery Rate," which indicates the volume of filtered air delivered by an air purifier. CADR ratings show the effectiveness of how efficient the air purifier is at capturing fine particles from things like tobacco smoke and plant pollens from the room.
Clean Air Delivery Rate
From air cleaner to air cleaner, compare the CADR numbers. First look at suggested room size. Then refer to the Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) numbers. The higher the number, the faster the unit filters the air.
Refer to website for individual model CADR numbers.
