VACUUM CLEANING

Vacuuming is the preferred method to clean the PRE-
FILTER and COLLECTION CELLS. It is recommended
that the PRE-FILTER and the COLLECTION CELLS
be vacuumed outside the home to ensure particles on
the filters are not reintroduced into the air. Persons
highly sensitive to the collected particles should wear
appropriate respiratory protection while cleaning.

The air cleaner is factory set to notify the home owner to
clean the PRE-FILTER every two months [10 weeks] of
actual run time of the air cleaner. This notification can
be changed by the installer/home owner to 1 month or
3 months [5 to 15 weeks] depending on the conditions
in the home (pets, smokers, etc.). Please see "SET-UP
MODE" (Page 9) to change the factory settings.
1. Using a vacuum hose, vacuum in even strokes
across the length of the PRE-FILTER. After
vacuuming the entire PRE-FILTER using
even strokes going in one direction, repeat
the process using even strokes going in the
opposite direction as shown in Figure 7.
NOTE: Do NOT replace the plastic PRE-FILTER with
a metal type PRE-FILTER. A metal PRE-FILTER will
cause reduction in efficiency and potential failure of
the electronics in the air cleaner.
COLLECTION CELLS
The clean/dirty LED light bar indicator will illuminate as
the system cleans the air. The LED lights will progress
from green to yellow and then to red. When the last red
indicator is flashing, it is time to clean the COLLECTION
CELLS (see Figure 6). The air cleaner is factory set
to notify the home owner to clean the COLLECTION
CELLS every six months [31 weeks] of actual run time
of the air cleaner. This notification can be changed
by the installer/home owner to 2 months, 4 months, 6
months, or 9 months [10, 20, 31 or 46 weeks] depending
on the conditions in the home (pets, smokers, etc.).
Please see "SET-UP MODE" (Page 9) to change the
factory settings.
