INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the QuietFlo™ T rue HEP A Air Purifier from Hunter
Fan Company. You have purchased our latest development in portable
Air Purification Systems. This system has been developed to improve the
quality of the air you breathe.

Our QuietFlo™ True HEPA Air Purifier out performs other air purification
systems by quickly and effectively removing dust, smoke, and pollen
particles. The HEPA filter will remove 99.97% of particles 0.3 microns in
size from air that passes through the filter.

The activated carbon pre-filter helps remove cooking, smoke, and pet
odors from the air. It also traps lint, hair, and large particles, which helps
improve the life and performance of the HEPA filter.

HOW THE QUIETFLO™ HEPA AIR PURIFIER WORKS

As the air is pulled into the purifier , the activated carbon pre-filter absorbs
odors and catches large particles. Then, the air travels through the HEP A
filter where the smaller particles are collected. Finally, the clean purified
air is released back into the room.

more frequently than indicated by the filter indicators. This procedure
allows you to reset the pre-filter or filter counter before the indicators ar e
lit.

1. Change the filter and/or pre-filter as described in the Maintenance
section of the manual.

2. Now, you must choose which counter you want to reset. Press and
hold the filter reset key (approximately three seconds) until the pre­filter indicator flashes. Press and release the reset key again to
alternate between the two indicators. The counter that will be reset
is designated by the flashing indicator.

For Models 36394 and 36395: Use the tip of a pen or pencil to press
the key.

3. Once you have the correct indicator flashing, press and hold the reset
key for three seconds to reset that counter to zero hours. The indicator
will stop flashing when it has been reset. If needed, repeat these
steps to reset the other counter.

CHANGING THE PRE-FILTER

In a typical environment, the pre-filter should be changed every 2000
hours (approximately 3 months of use) to maintain proper odor -removing
capability and overall filtration performance. Changing the pre-filter
regularly will also help extend the life of the HEPA filter. If necessary, the
pre-filter can be changed more frequently. The following instructions tell
you how to change the pre-filter.

For Models 36144, 36145, 36259, 36260, 36394, 36395: The pre-filter
indicator will flash after 2000 hours of use as a reminder that you should
change the pre-filter.

1. Turn OFF and unplug the air purifier .

2. Remove the front grille to expose the pre-filter. The pre-filter is

attached to the front grille with hook tape. Pull gently on the pre­filter to remove it. Once removed, you can dispose of the used pre­filter.

3. If needed, use a soft damp cloth to wipe off the front grille.

4. Remove the new pre-filter from the plastic wrapping and install it in

the grille by pressing gently on the corners where it adheres to the
hook tape. Y ou may notice a few black particles coming off the pr e­filter . Those particles ar e part of the odor -removing activated carbon
and will be collected on the filter during normal use. Mark the new
filter installation sticker included with the pre-filter and place the
sticker on the front grille for future reference.

5. Install the front grille onto the unit and plug in the air purifier.

6. For Models 36144, 36145, 36259, 36260, 36394, 36395: Reset the

pre-filter counter as described in the Pre-filter and Filter Counter section
of this manual.

CHANGING THE HEPA FILTER

Although the proper time to change the filter depends on usage and the
environment, a typical life is 8000 hours (approximately 1 year of usage).
If you notice a decrease in air output or an increase in noise at any time
during normal operation, the filter may be clogged and need to be
replaced. A color -coded chart is also included on the inside of the housing
to help you determine if it is time to change the HEP A filter. Follow these
instructions to change the HEPA filter.

For Models 36144, 36145, 36259, 36260, 36394, 36395: The filter
indicator will flash after 8000 hours of use as a reminder that you should
change the filter.

1. Turn OFF and unplug the air purifier .

2. Remove the front grille and gently pull on the filter to remove it from

the unit. While removing the filter, note the direction of the flaps
that form the seal around the filter. The new filter will be installed
