INTRODUCTION_______________________________________________
Congratulations on your choice of the Kenmore HEPA Air Cleaner.
We highly recommend that you operate the Air Cleaner 24 hours
a day, because indoor air can be quickly contaminated by activity
or objects in a room and infiltration of outside air. Portable air cleaners
are much more effective in rooms where all doors and windows
are closed.
Page 4
HOW IT WORKS
This Air Cleaner is equipped with a HERA (High Efficiency Particulate
Arrestor) filter. Room air is drawn into the Air Cleaner through the Air
Intake Grille and passes through the HERA filter. The filtered air is
released from the top of the unit and is dispersed upwards into the room.
The Air Cleaner has three operating speeds: HI, MED and LO.
The indicator light is “ON” when the Air Cleaner is operating.
Your Air Cleaner has an ionizer with a red light indicating when
it is turned “ON”.
Use of ionizer boosts cleaning efficiency and revitalizes stale air.
SET UP
______________________________________________________
Your Air Cleaner was thoroughly inspected and tested at the
factory prior to packaging. Visually inspect it upon removal
from its box. Remove and discard any packaging material.
Return the unit if it shows any signs of damage or mishandling.
Adjust the filter change wheel to properly indicate when the
next filter change is necessary.
ELECTRICAL HOOKUP
Plug the Air Cleaner into a polarized 120-Volt AC wall outlet.
AwARNING: To avoid the risk of fire or electric shock hazard, the
Air
Cleaner
should ONLY be plugged into a polarized 120-Volt AC outlet.
OPERATION
A.CAUTION! NEVER operate the Air Cleaner without the HEPA filter
properly

Operation
• When the ionizer is activated it
freshen the air by removing smail airborne particies. When
using ionizer, be sure to piace air cleaner about one foot
away from the walls. This will help keep airborne dust
particles from depositing on walls.
FILTER CHANGE SCHEDULE
• HEPA Filter: The usable lifetime of the HEPA filter is 1 - 2 years,
depending upon the level of the room's air contaminants and the
frequency of use. The FiEPA filter will turn medium brown and air
volume will begin to decrease dramatically when the filter needs to
be changed. You should have a spare filter available for later
replacement.
