HOW IT WORKS

1 Dirty Air

2 Prefilter

3 Charging
Section

Dirty air is drawn in through the front grill and passes through
a 4-stage filtering system.

The Prefilter consists of aluminum mesh and a close knit
polymesh. It prevents larger particles, lint and hair from
entering the collecting cell.

The next step is a 2-Stage Electrostatic Collecting Cell. The
dirt particles are charged with a high positive voltage by a
series of fine ionizing wires. The charged particles are drawn
through to the collecting plates where the dirt adheres to the
grounded plates and remains until the cell is taken out and
washed. Removes particles down to 0.01 micron
(1/2,540,000 of an inch).

The air is then drawn through an Activated Carbon Odour &
Gas VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) Removal Filter to
help remove offensive odours and gases. Clean air is then
discharged out the back of the Air Cleaner.

Dual Negative Ionizer needles, controlled by a separate
switch, are located in the clean air stream. Adding healthy
negative ions to the air revitalizes the air similar to that near a
waterfall, spring, the ocean, or after a rainfall. Studies have
shown that negative ions have a beneficial effect on human
biochemistry, both physically and mentally.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. Lean Air Cleaner on side panel and pull out of box. If
your unit has any signs of damage, immediately contact
the store where the Air Cleaner was purchased.

2. Keep the shipping carton and packaging in case the
need arises to store or transport the unit.

3. Remove all pa ckaging from the unit. Choose a suitable
location to allow unobstructed circulation from the front
and back of the unit. If unit has to be placed against a
wall, allow at least 6-8 inches (15-20 cm) for circulation.

4. Operate Air Cleaner at voltage shown on back of unit.

5. The controls for the Air Cleaner are located on the re ar
panel. To turn the Air Cleaner on, push the System
Switch to the ON position. This controls the power to the
Fan Control Switch and to the power board. When the
Fan Control Switch is in the extreme left position, the fan
is on low; center position is medium; and to the right is
high speed. When the System Switch is turned ON, the
green Performance Indicator Light, located behind the
front grill, should be illuminated.

Use the low or medium speed for quiet, continuous or
nighttime use. Use the high speed for initial cleaning of
heavy concentrations of dirty air (i.e. smoke) or after leaving
the room.

6. The negative ions are controlled by a separate switch
located to the right of the fan control switch. When the
switch is ON, the red light will illuminate. Note: The

Negative Ion Emitter will not work without the
System Switch being ON.

7. To access the prefilter, collecting cell or activated carbon
filter, turn the system switch off. Undo the thumbscrew
located under the switches, on the rear panel, and slide
the top panel to the rear of the unit.

You may notice arcing or snapping from the cell. It is normal
to hear some arcing when the unit is new or first turned on.
Arcing in the cell may also be caused by high humidity (over
80%), after washing, or when a large particle of dirt or hair is
caught in the cell. If the arcing is continuous and constant,
then refer to the Troubleshooting Chart.
