Chapter 5: Routine Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning the System

WARNING: To avoid electrical shock, disconnect the electrical
supply before attempting to clean the Tranquility
Quest Plus. DO NOT immerse the unit in water or
allow any liquid to enter the cabinet or the filter
intake.
Wipe the outside of the unit with a cloth slightly
dampened with water and a mild detergent. Let the
unit dry before reconnecting the electrical supply.
5.2 Cleaning / Replacing the
Intake Filters
The gray pollen filter is a reusable filter that screens out pollens and
some household dust. This filter should be cleaned at least once
every two weeks under normal usage, or as required, and replaced
with a new one every six months. The pollen filter must be in place
at all times when the unit is operating.

Chapter 5: Routine Maintenance
The disposable white ultra-fine filter increases filtration of pollens,
dust, some tobacco smoke, and small particles. The ultra-fine filter
is included with the system, but is optional and should be used in
addition to the pollen filter. The ultra-fine filter should never be
used without the pollen filter. Replace the ultra-fine filter after 30
nights of use or sooner if it appears dirty. DO NOT clean the ultra-
fine filter.
CAUTION: Failure to replace a dirty filter may cause the device
to operate at higher then normal temperatures and
damage the device.
CAUTION: The pollen filter must be completely dry before
use. Never place a wet filter into the device.
Respironics recommends that you clean the filter in
the morning and alternate using the two pollen
filters provided with the system to ensure enough
drying time for the cleaned filter.
