1. Plug your air purifier into a grounded outlet.
2. Press ON/off to start the air purifier. When your unit is on, the control panel screen will light up. To stop the air purifier, press ON/OFFand the screen will turn off.
3.  Press SPEED and watch the indicator lights until desired fan speed is achieved.
   Fan Speed| Result
   ---|---
   Level 1| Quietest operation
   Level 2| Moderate cleaning power
   Level 3| Maximum cleaning power
4. Press ION to activate the ozone-safe ionizer. The built-in IONIZER charges particles in the air. This causes the particles to stick together and become larger, making them easier for the filter to capture. Press ION again to turn it off.

KNOW YOUR AIR PURIFIER

When using the air purifier for the first time in a room, many prefer to use a higher fan speed like speed three or four for a couple of hours in order to clean the room’s air initially. Then, it is recommended that the air purifier is left on to run continuously.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Replacing The Filter
The filters used in all Alen Air Purifiers are not designed to be washed, cleaned or otherwise reused. Over time, the filters become overloaded with particles, decreasing their filtration performance. We recommend regular filter replacements (at least every 6 months with normal use) to extend the life of your air purifier and maximize performance.
The black foam layer of the filter, known as the prefilter, captures large dust and hair. This layer is held on with Velcro® -like strips. Once removed, the Alen prefilter can be washed or vacuumed to maintain the efficient operation of the unit.

Why You Should Replace Your Filter

• You purchased an Alen Air Purifier to improve the quality of your indoor air. Changing your filters on time is the only way to maintain an optimal level of air quality.

Can I clean the filter?
