gasses will be present.
• Sharp edges may cause injury from cuts. Use care when cutting and handling sheet metal.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this equipment has a grounding-type (three prong) plug.
This plug will fit only into a grounding-type power outlet. If the plug does not fit into the outlet,
contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet. Do not alter this plug in any way.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shock, locate product so that the power cord can be plugged into
an electrical outlet without the use of an extension cord.
CAUTION:
• To prevent component failure, do not install the air cleaner on the warm air supply or in an
area where the temperature may exceed 149° F. This may include areas above heat exchangers
in downflow furnaces or above exhaust flues in lowboy furnace cold air returns.
• The air cleaner must be installed where the ambient air temperature remains between 32° F
and 149° F [0° C and 65° C].
• Installation must conform to all applicable codes.
• Do not install an atomizing humidifier upstream of the air cleaner. Water or mist will cause
power supply to shut down.
