The filters used in Alen Air Purifiers are not designed to be washed cleaned, or otherwise reused. Over time, the filters become overloaded with particles, decreasing their filtration per-formance. We recommend regular filter replacements to extend the life of your air purifier and maximize performance.

After replacing the filter, hold the FILTER button down for 5 seconds. The Red
light will be reset to Green.
Cleaning Instruction: Control Panel
To avoid scratching the control panel, do not use abrasive/caustic cleaning
solutions or scrub-bing pads. With the unit unplugged, dampen a clean towel
with soap and water to clean the control panel, then dry gently with a soft
cloth or paper towel. Glass cleaner (e.g. Windex) is also OK. To avoid
damaging electronic components—DO NOT allow liquid to seep into the unit.
