AIR CLEANER SAFETY
PLEASE READ AND SAVE
THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
•
Read all instructions before using appliance.
• If the filter is covered by a bag when shipped: remove
plastic bag before use.
• Keep the cords out of heavy traffic area. To avoid fire
hazard NEVER put cords under rugs, near heat registers,
radiators, stoves or heaters.
• To protect against electrical hazards DO NOT immerse in
water or other liquids. Do not use near water.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used
by or near children or disabled persons.
• Always unplug the air cleaner before moving it, opening
the grill, changing the filters, or whenever the appliance is
not in use. Be sure to pull by the plug and not the cord.
• NEVER drop or insert any object into any openings.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or
plug, if motor fan fails to rotate, after the appliance
malfunctions, or if it has been dropped or damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to manufacturer for examination,
electrical or mechanical adjustment or repair.
• Use appliance only for the intended household use as
described in this manual. Any other use not recommended
by the manufacturer may cause fire, electrical shock or injury
to persons. The use of attachments not recommended or
sold by Jarden Consumer Solutions may cause hazards.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Never block the air openings, or place on soft surface,
such as bed or sofa, as this could cause the unit to tip
over thus blocking the air intake opening.
• Keep appliances away from heated surfaces and open
flames.
• DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or
mechanical functions on these appliances. Doing so will
void the warranty. The inside of these appliances contain
no user serviceable parts. All servicing should be per-
formed by qualified personnel only.
• WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock,
DO NOT use these appliances with any solid-state speed
control device.
• DO NOT place anything on top of these appliances.

INSTRUCTIONS
CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
THIS APPLIANCE HAS A POLARIZED
PLUG (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is
intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THIS
POLARIZED PLUG IN ANY WAY.
The length of the cord used on this product was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved exten-
sion cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension
cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the air
cleaner. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord
where it cannot be pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.
IONIZER
Your Air Cleaner has an independently controlled ionizer, which,
when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air.
Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative charge.
These ions exist naturally around us, in the air, water and
ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless, odorless
and completely harmless.
Negative ions help the air purification process by attaching
themselves to very small airborne particles in the room. These
particles take on a negative charge and may join with positive-
ly charged particles such as dust, pollen, smoke and pet dan-
der to form larger particles that are then more readily captured
by the filter system, or they may be attracted to positively
charged surfaces like walls or floors.
You may also note after extended use, that dust may have
collected around the grills or front panel. This is from the ion-
ization affect caused by the negative ions exiting from the air
outlet. This is additional evidence of the air cleaning effective-
ness of negative ions. The dust can be easily removed with a
clean, damp cloth or soft brush.
NOTE: It is important to clean the filter at the recommend-
ed intervals. Using the ionizer in conjunction with dirty filters
may result in dirty particles exiting the air cleaner and being
attracted to walls, carpets, furniture or other household
objects. These dirty particles may prove very difficult to
remove.
4. For optimum air filtration, it is recommended to operate the
air cleaner continuously. Its rugged motor has been
designed to give many years of use.
For continuous use, it’s recommended to operate the air
cleaner at the MEDIUM ( ) setting. For quieter operation or
use in a bedroom, select the LOW ( ) setting. When high lev-
els of air pollution are present, select the HIGH ( ) setting to
quickly circulate and filter the room air.
CLEANING THE PERMAtech TM FILTER
The PERMAtech TM filter is designed to never need
replacement. However, we recommend regular cleaning for
optimal performance.
• Every few weeks, check the condition of the filter.
• After approximately 3 months of operation, the Filter
Indicator Light will alert you to clean the filter before
further use.
TO CLEAN THE FILTER:
1. Turn off and unplug the air cleaner.
2. Remove the air inlet grill by pulling on the tab.
3. Remove and examine the foam pre-filter.
• If it has collected dust or lint, remove and wash it
in warm soapy water. Rinse and drip dry thoroughly
before placing it back into the grill inlet.
4. Check the condition of the PERMAtech TM filters and
remove if dirty.
5. Clean the PERMAtech TM filter.
• Using your vacuum cleaner, run
the brush attachment along both
sides of the filter and clean
between the pleated layers
(Figure 2).
IMPORTANT: Do not use water, household cleaners or
detergents to clean the PERMAtech
TM filter.
The filter may appear discolored, even after vacuuming.
This is normal and does not affect performance in any
way—a new filter is not necessary.
If the filter becomes damaged during cleaning, call
1-800-253-2764 to order replacements.
REINSTALLING THE PERMAtech TM FILTER AFTER
CLEANING
NOTE: Use hang tab and filter clips to ensure the filter
attaches properly.
1. Make sure the hang tab is securely
in place. Align the clip on the top of
the PERMAtech
TM filter with the rails
on the inside of the unit. Gently
slide the filter onto the rail
(see Figures 3 and 4).
2. Place air inlet grill back onto unit
securely.
3. Reset the Filter Indicator Light by
inserting a small object (such as a pin
or paperclip) into the hole marked .
