AIR CLEANER FEATURES

CAUTION: Fully assemble air filter before using {See Air Cleaner Set-Up on

A

following page). Note: Features vary according to model.

> Quiet Operation

This Kenmore air cleaner has a four-

speed fan with quiet operation that is
ideal for nighttime,

° Air Quaitty Sensor

This Kenmore air cleaner has an AIR
QUALITY sensor that detects the presence
of various pollutants in the air The unit
automatically increases fan speed to
clean more air volume and remove the
impurities quickly.

> Light Sensor

The built-in light sensor detects when the

room is dark and automatically dims the

lights of the control pane! and lowers the
fan speed for quiet and energy-efficient
operation. Once the room is dark, the light
sensor will keep the lights dim, and not
allow the fan to increase speed despite
what the AIR QUALITY sensor detects.

> Multi-Stage Cleaning

The air passes through multiple stages of
cleaning before returning to the room.

«PlasmaWave™ Technology

PlasmaWave™ Technology uses a strong
corona discharge to attack pollutants at
the molecular level.

' Sanltlzedl™ Treated Carbon Pre-Filter

The Carbon Pre-Filter collects large
particles, such as dust, pet hair, and lint,

it absorbs odor-causing gases, such as
those caused by cigarette
smoke, organic decay, and
cooking, and is treated with
Sanitize™’ to effectively
reduce the development of
bacteria and fungi. For
best performance, replace
every three months.

■ True HEPA Filter
Captures 99.99% of particles
and impurities as small as

0.3 microns, including
smoke, dust, pollen, and
other allergens. Replace
when the CHECK FILTER
indicator light turns on.

Advanced PlasmaWave™* Technology

PlasmaWave™ uses a strong corona discharge to break apart airborne poilutante at the

molecular level.

In a fradion of a second, PlasmaWave™ combines with naturally occurring water molecules in the

air (H2O) to create billions of Hydroxyl Radical trolecules (OH),
OH is an unstable molecule that seeks equilibrium by stealing hydrogen atoms from adjacent

molecules containing hydrogen (the pollutants), thereby reforming them into harmless molecules of
water, carbon dioxide, and other acceptable molecules.

The resuit is a measurable reduction of pollutants after the air passes through the Plasma
Generator (PlasmaWave™).

By reforming mcrfecules, PlasmaWave™ technology can reduce odors, as well as VOCs (chemical
vapors). It is also effective at reducing airborne microorganisms—bacteria and viruses.

The PlasmaWave™ technology Is harmless and the OH molecule only lives for a nanosecond
while it reforms surrounding molecuies. Most importantiy—unlike oid style ion technology—
PlasmaWave™ does not produce high levels of ozone as a by-product.

When combined with a fan-and-filter air-cleaning system, PlasmaWave™ offers an effective and
efficient way of cleaning the air of unwanted pollutants including dust, smoke, and pollen, as well
as VOCs, allergens, micro-organisms, and odors.

OPERATION

AUTOMATIC OPERATION: When in
AUTO mode, the air cleaner will automati

cally sense the amount of impurities in the
air and adjust the fan speed accordingly.
When the unit is first turned on it will default
to AUTO mode.

F. AIR QUALITY LEVEL INDICATOR:

Displays the current quality of the air.

G. FAN SPEED INDICATOR:

Displays current fan speed setting.

H. FAN SPEED: Once the machine is on

and in AUTO mode, switch to manual
operation by pressing FAN SPEED
button on the unit.

J. POWER BUTTON: Turns the unit on

and off.

K. LIGHT SENSOR: When in AUTO mode,

this keeps the control panel tights dim
and will not allow the fan to increase
above QUIET speed when the room
is dark.

■ QUIET, MEDIUM, HIGH: These levels are
recommended for standard, daytime use,
HIGH win activate automatically when
sensors delect high levels of impurities
in the air. QUIET, the lowest setting, is the
energy saving mode.

MANUAL OPERATION (Adjusting the
fan speed): Once the unit is on, switch to

manual operation by pressing the UP &
DOWN arrow buttons on the remote control

or the FAN SPEED button. Once in manual

operation, the fan speed wili not automati
cally adjust to the air quality or light level.

' TURBO: The TURBO level, the highest

fan speed, can be activated manually for
maximum air circutation. The TURBO
level will not automatically activate

8

AIR QUALITY SENSOR: The air quality
sensor displays five levels of impurities

in the air. If the unit is set to automatic
operation, the air qualify sensor will adjust
fan speeds according to the air quality; fan
speed will decrease as air quality improves.
The AIR QUALITY sensor responds to
cigarette smoke and pet odors, as well as
other contaminants, such as insecticides,
cosmetics, and alcohol or aerosol sprajiS.
The AIR QUALITY LEVEL indicator shows
three colors: blue, orange, and red. The
blue light indicates clean air, the orange
light indicates unciean air, and the red iighl

indicates very unclean air. If the unit is set

to automatic operation, It will change fan

speeds to compensate for different levels
of air pollution.
