Washing Cells at the Car Wash

Use the hand sprayer at a coin-operated do-it-yourself car wash to
clean the cells. Hold the nozzle at least two feet away from the unit to
avoid damage (such as broken ionizer wires or bent collector plates)
from the high pressure stream of water. Follow the same sequence
of wash and rinse as recommended for cars. However, do not wax the
cells. Be sure to rinse until the water draining from the cells no longer
feels slippery.

Reinstalling the Cells and Prefilters

1. Inspect the cells for broken ionizer wires and bent collector
plates. Repair as necessary or take to a Resideo Authorized Air
Cleaner Repair Station.
2. Slide the prefilters into the upstream prefilter guides.
3. Slide in the air cleaner cells so the airflow arrow points
downstream and the handles faces outward.
4. Firmly close the access door.
5. Wait two to three hours until the cells are dry and then
turn on the air cleaner. If the cells and prefilters are wet,
the neon light may not come on and you may hear arcing.

Replacing Media Postfilters

To maximize the filtration efficiency of the media postfilters,
replace them every six months. Replacement filters are
available in the same size and configuration as the original
unit. Contact your local Resideo distributor to purchase
replacement filters. Install the replacement filters exactly
as the filters provided with the equipment. Use the Service
Reminder Schedule at the end of this document to help you
establish and maintain a regular replacement schedule. Keep
your Service Reminder Schedule in a convenient location.

Replacing Ionizer Wires

Broken or bent ionizer wires can cause an electrical short to
ground, often resulting in visible arcing or sparking. Do not
use cells until broken wires are removed. Cells can be used
temporarily with one wire missing, but replace the wire as
soon as possible.
Replacement wires are supplied cut to length with eyelets on
both ends for easy installation. See Parts and Accessories
