When using the air purifier for the first time in a room, we recommend using a higher fan speed, such as speed three (3) or Turbo (T), for at least two hours to clean the room's air initially. Then, we recommend running the air purifier continuously in Auto mode or in speeds two (2) or three (3).
To turn the lights off on your unit, press the Power Button. The lights will go out but the unit will not turn off. Press any button to turn the lights back on, or press the
Power Button a 2nd time to turn the unit off completely.
The Filter Indicator has 3 lights: Green, Yellow, and Red. The Green light will be illuminated for most of the life of the filter. Yellow light will come on shortly before your filter should be replaced. This is the ideal time to order a new filter. You may order a new filter at www.alen.com/filters or by calling 1-800-630-2396. The Red light will be illuminated when it is time to replace the filter.
The filters used in Alen Air Purifiers are not designed to be washed, cleaned or otherwise reused. Over time, the filters become overloaded with particles, decreasing their filtration performance. We recommend regular filter replacements to extend the life of your air purifier and maximize performance.
The black mesh layer of the filter, known as the prefilter, captures large dust and hair. This layer is held on with Velcro®-like strips. Once removed, the Alen prefilter can be vacuumed to maintain efficient operation of the unit.
After replacing the filter, hold the FILTER button down for 5 seconds. The Red light will be reset to Green.
Regular replacement of your filter will extend the life of your air purifier and keep your air clean. Alen filters provide efficient filtration for 9 to 12 months depending on usage and conditions.

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - These servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing other than that contained in the operating instructions unless you are qualified to do so.
The SmartSensor uses an infrared light to detect airborne particles. After prolonged periods of use, dust can accumulate on the lens and affect the sensitivity of the sensor. If this occurs, your unit will run on the highest speeds when set in Automatic mode and will not come down to the lower speeds even after cleaning the air. To clean the sensor lens, first turn your unit off. Wet the end of a cotton swab with water and wipe the lens with it. Dry the lens with the other end of the cotton swab. For best performance, clean the SmartSensor lens each time you replace your filter.
Unit will not power on.
Ensure the cord is completely inserted into purifier socket. Check that filter is pushed in all the way and evenly seated in the unit. Firmly push top of filter frame up and in until it clicks. Last, check that front panel is on properly (fit snugly to the purifier).
How do I reset the filter indicator lights? I put in a new filter but the red or yellow lights are still illuminated.
After changing the filter, RESET the filter indicator by holding down the FILTER button for 5 seconds while the unit is ON. The light above the FILTER button should reset to green.
My BreatheSmart FIT50 always runs on the highest speeds when in Automatic Mode.
The BreatheSmart FIT50 unit may not come down from the highest speeds when in Automatic Mode for two reasons: Your air is dirty and still needs to be cleaned, or the SmartSensor lens has dust on it and must be cleaned. See "How To Clean The SmartSensor".
