USING YOUR AIR PURIFIER

PLEASE NOTE:

The BreatheSmart 45i has capacitive touch control panels. The buttons only operate with a quick, light touch. Holding the buttons down will not activate the controls properly.
A chime will indicate that the control has registered your touch.

Operating Your Unit:

1. Plug your air purifier into a grounded outlet.

2. Touch Power Button in the center to start the air purifier. When your unit is on, the lights will illuminate. To turn off display lighting, press the Power Button. To turn off the air purifier, touch the Power Button again after the lights have turned off. The LIGHT
   Button can also be used to control the display lighting.

3. The BreatheSmart 45i has a Color Ring around the Power Button indicating air quality, as measured by the particle sensor.
   

4. Press IONIZER to activate the ozone-safe ionizer. Activation of the ionizer enhances your unit’s ability to remove airborne particles (similar to the way dust is attracted to a
   TV screen). Press the ionizer button again to turn off.

5. FILTER life Indicator — There are three lights above the FILTER button: Green, Yellow, and Red. The Green light will be illuminated for most of the life of the filter. The Yellow light will come on shortly before your filter should be replaced. This is the ideal time to order a new filter. The Red light will be illuminated when it is time to replace the filter.

6. After changing the filter, hold the FILTER button down for five seconds. This will reset the Red light to Green.

7. Touch LIGHT to adjust display lighting (LO, HI, or OFF). LO dims lights by 50%.

Identification of Parts – BreatheSmart 45i Control Panel

KNOW YOUR AIR PURIFIER

Getting Started

When using the air purifier for the first time, we recommend that you use a higher fan speed, such as speed three (3) or Turbo (T), for at least two hours to quickly clean the room’s air.
Then, we recommend that the air purifier run continuously on speed two (2) or three (3) to maintain air quality, or set your unit to Auto mode.

BreatheSmart 45i Features

• True HEPA filtration captures dust, allergens, and airborne pollutants
• Four fan speeds to control air circulation
• Three settings to control display lighting
• Filter change indicator light keeps replacements on schedule
• Simple and intuitive touch button controls
• Auto-off safety feature when front cover is removed

Turn The Lights Off/On

To turn your unit’s display lighting off, touch the LIGHT button and select OFF. The lights will go out, but the unit will continue running. To dim the lights on your unit, select LO.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Cleaning Instruction

To avoid scratching the control panel, do not use abrasive/caustic cleaning solutions or scrubbing pads. With the unit unplugged, dampen a clean towel lightly 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.

Prefilter Cleaning

The black mesh layer on the front of the filter, known as the prefilter, captures large dust and hair. This layer is held on with Velcro®-like strips. This prefilter can be vacuumed in place to maintain efficient operation of the unit.

Replacing The Filter

The Filter Indicator has three lights: Green, Yellow, and Red. The Green light will be illuminated for most of the life of the filter. The yellow light will come on shortly before your filter should be re-placed. This is the ideal time to order a new filter. You may order a new filter at www.alen.com/ filters or by calling 1-800-630-2396. The Red light will be illuminated when it is time to replace the filter.

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 performance. We recommend regular filter replacements to extend the life of your air purifier and maximize performance.

Reset the Filter Indicator

After replacing the filter, hold the FILTER button down for five seconds. The Red light will be reset to Green.

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.
• Excessively dirty filters can compromise the level of clean air your air purifier can provide.

After changing the filter, RESET the filter indicator by holding down the FILTER button for five seconds while the unit is ON. The light above the FILTER button should reset to green.

How do I find out what electrical specifications my unit needs?

Please refer to the rating label on the back of the unit. Here you will find your unit’s voltage, hertz, amps, and outlet requirements.

Can I clean the filter?

The black mesh layer on the front of the filter, known as the prefilter, captures large dust and hair. This layer is held on with Velcro®-like strips.
