Safety

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS AIR PURIFIER WARNING To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:

• Do not use it outdoors or on wet surfaces.
• Use only as described in this manual.
• Do not use a damaged cord or plug. If the appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center or call customer service at: USA: 1-800-989-3535 Canada: 1-888-676-7325
• Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Do not handle plugs or appliances with wet hands.
• Do not put any objects into openings. Do not use any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint, hair, and anything that may reduce airflow.
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of the body away from openings and moving parts.
• Turn off all controls before unplugging.
• Do not use appliances in an enclosed space where oxygen, flammable, explosive or toxic vapors are given off or in an area where flammable dust is present.
• You should consult your oxygen and medical equipment providers before using the air purifier around oxygen tanks, hoods, or other medical devices using concentrated oxygen. Using electronic devices, including an air purifier, in the presence of oxygen and other combustible gases could result in fires or explosions, potentially causing serious injury or even death.

CAUTION! Installing a wet or even damp Truman Cell™ into the air purifier may cause the melting of internal components during use.

• DO NOT place a wet or damp Truman Cell™ in the air purifier.
• DO NOT wash the odor absorber. Replace, if necessary.
• Dry the Truman Cell™ thoroughly outside of the air purifier before reinstalling it into the air purifier. Ensure that all areas including corners and areas that may trap water e dry before reinstalling the air purifier.

FOR COMMERCIAL USE:
High voltage from Truman Cell™ may cause ignition of flammable or explosive gases/particles in the circulating air.

• DO NOT use in an area that contains flammable or explosive gases/particles in the circulating air.
• Do not place open flames, including candles, directly in front of the air purifier. Doing so may result in minor or moderate injury.
• Keep objects away from the front grill.

It is important to consider the following when deciding where to locate the air purifier:

• Position the air purifier on a flat, solid, stable surface.
• Position the air purifier so that the dirty air is not drawn across your head or body while sitting or sleeping.
• Position the air purifier so the plug on the power cord easily reaches a standard electrical outlet for a polarized plug.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Do not place the air purifier near sources of heat, such as stove tops, ovens, radiators or computers.

A polarized plug has one rounded prong and one straight prong. The rounded end goes into the longest socket slot. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will 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 qualified personnel to install the proper outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way. All accessories and replacement parts are sold separately. To order, call our customer service group or visit our website. Please have your model number from the data label on the bottom of the unit.
