Operating Instructions

PLEASE NOTE:
•THE FIRST TIME YOU USE YOUR LUX

Legacy Air 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.
• DO NOT SIT ON THE UNIT OR PLACE ANYTHING HEAVY ON TOP OF IT.
Cleaning your LUX

the filters or the motor/fan housing.
About LUX
®
Legacy Air’s three-stage filtration and changing filters
Stage 1: Washable Prefilter
The prefilter prolongs the life of the HEPA
†
filter by removing large particulates before they can reach the
HEPA filter. Clean the prefilter when it becomes 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.
Replace 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 chemicals that may give
off gas from household cleaners, paints, solvents, carpets, furniture and other materials
containing chemical substances.
Replace every 6-12 months depending on usage.
Optional V.O.C. Canister
This optional filter not only removes V.O.C.s from the air but also contains carbon and zeolite to help remove
odors. If used, the canister replaces the V.O.C. blanket filter.
Replace every 12 months depending on usage.
