Cleaning the
prefilter(s)
Washing the
cell(s) in your
automatic
dishwasher
Step 1
F50F AND F300E ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANERS
Vacuum the prefilter with a brush attachment, rinse it with a
hose, or soak it in a tub. Do not wash the prefilter(s) in the
dishwasher or car wash.
CAUTION
Burn Hazard.
Can cause personal injury.
Allow the cell(s) to cool completely in the dishwasher at the end
of the wash cycle or wear protective gloves to avoid burns. Hot
water can accumulate in the tubes supporting the collector
plates.Tip the cell(s) so these tubes can drain.
IMPORTANT
• Check your dishwasher Owner's manual. Some manu-
facturers do not recommend washing electronic cell(s)
in their dishwashers.
• If the dishwasher has upper and lower arms, position
the cell(s) carefully to allow good water circulation.
• Be careful to avoid damaging the cell(s) when placing
them in the dishwasher. Broken ionizer wires or bent
collector plates are not covered under the Warranty.
• Very dirty cell(s), especially from tobacco or cooking
smoke, can discolor the plastic parts and the lining of
some dishwashers.This discoloration is not harmful.
To minimize it, wash the cell(s) more frequently or try a
different brand of detergent.
• Do NOT allow the dishwasher to run through the
dry cycle. This bakes on any contaminants not
removed during the wash cycle and reduces air
cleaner efficiency.
Put the cell(s) on the lower rack of the dishwasher with the
airflow arrow pointing up. It may be necessary to remove the
upper rack. Do not block water flow to the upper arm.
HINT: Lay a few large water glasses between the spikes on the
lower rack, and rest the cell(s) on them so the spikes do not
damage the aluminum collector blades.
