INTRODUCTION
The air you breathe is filled with thousands of particles of air
pollution. Some of the pollutants like dust and lint are large
enough to be visible to the naked eye, but pollutants such as
pollen, smok
Your Oreck Air Purifier has been designed to capture and
destroy visible and invisible pollutants and provide you the
luxury of clean air living in your home or office.
Airborne particles and odors are removed from air passing
through the unit by the process of electrostatic precipitation and
an activated charcoal odor absorber. The fragrance feature
releases a pleasant aroma with the newly cleaned air.
How Your Oreck Air Purifier Works
1.
Polluted air enters the Air Purifier through the front grill. As
the air is pulled through, a Pre-Filter helps trap large particles
(hair, lint, etc.).
2. Positive Charging Wires electrostatically charge smaller
particles (dust, smoke, pollen, etc.).
3. The positively charged particles then enter the negatively
charged Electronic Collector Cell, where the aluminum plates
attract and retain the particles and subsequently destroy
bacteria, mold, viruses, and fungi. It works like a powerful
magnet and the particles remain until the Electronic Collector
Cell is cleaned.
4. The air then passes through a Charcoal Odor Absorber that
helps remove household odors.
5. Next, the Air Revitalizer (Ionizer) releases negative ions to
freshen the air
Revitalizer is designed to be left on continually to provide a
clean scent.

. AIR DIRECTION CONTROL: Slide switch on top of unit
controls the louvers and enables you to direct airflow to
desired areas.
NOTE: You may notice an occasional sharp snapping
sound coming from your unit. This is a normal occurrence
called “arcing” and results as large particles of dust are
collected in the Electronic Collector Cell. Should prolonged
or continuous arcing occur, the Electronic Collector Cell
should be thoroughly cleaned and dried completely
