Portable air filtration system

Advertisement

Congratulations on your purchase of a Roomaid™ portable air filtration
system! With proper care and maintenance your Roomaid™ will provide
years of reliable service and improve the quality of your air.
Operating Instructions
1. Set the unit down on a dresser, desk or other piece of sturdy furniture.
2. Using the adapter cord, insert the small plug into the receptacle at the
back of the unit. Plug the other end into a wall receptacle.
3. Choose a speed setting and let the unit run continuously.
PLEASE NOTE:
•THE FIRST TIME YOU USE YOUR ROOMAID™ let the unit run on the high-
speed setting for several hours before using the room. This gives the unit
time to stir up and filter out excess dust. It is also a good idea to vacuum
and dust the room before using the unit for the first time. After the initial
cleaning period, let the unit run continuously. Use the high-speed setting
for maximum performance.
• The AC ADAPTOR may feeL fairly warm to the touch when it is plugged
into a wall receptacle. This is normal.
• DO NOT SIT ON THE UNIT OR PLACE ANYTHING HEAVY ON TOP OF IT.
Cleaning your Roomaid™
Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the unit. You can also use a non-abrasive
cleaner. Do not let water get into the filters or the motor/fan housing.
About Roomaid's three-stage filtration and changing filters
Stage 1: Washable Prefilter
The prefilter prolongs the life of the HEPA filter by removing large particu-
lates before they can reach the HEPA filter. Clean the prefilter when it
starts becoming visibly covered with dust. Wash it in your washing machine
or hand-wash it with warm water and detergent. Let it dry thoroughly
before replacing it. Two prefilters are provided. Use the second prefilter
while the other is drying.
Change the prefilter if it no longer fits snugly, or it gets damaged.
Stage 2: HEPA Cartridge
HEPA media with 99.97% efficiency @ 0.3 microns.
Replace every 2-5 years depending on usage and your environment-e.g.
smoking vs. non-smoking
Stage 3: V.O.C. Filter
The V.O.C. (Volatile Organic Compound) filter removes household chem-
icals that may off-gas from household cleaners, paints, solvents, carpets,
furniture and other materials containing chemical substances.
Replace every 6-12 months depending on usage.
Replacement filters are available from your AMAIRCARE
