AIR PURIFIER OVERVIEW
How To Use
Your air purifier comes with the filters installed. Your unit is ready to be
plugged in and in use.
Operating
Always operate indoors, preferably on a level surface. If used in the home, we
recommend operating the unit wherever you spend most of your time – typically
a bedroom or living area. Set the fan speed to a noise level that is
comfortable for you. In most cases you can run the air purifier on a very low
fan speed setting so it is quiet. If you have a larger living area you may
want to run it on a higher fan speed when you are not in the room and then run
it on a low speed when you are present.
Casters
Erik comes with casters to help in moving the unit. Two of the casters have a
wheel lock and to ease movement so make sure they are unlocked when moving.
Power Switch
The Off/Reset switch at the back of the air purifier serves two purposes: it
controls power to the unit and works as a circuit breaker. To operate the air
purifier the reset/On side of the switch must be pressed down. There is no
light with this switch so it will not illuminate when on. This is to keep the
unit from generating light if used in a bedroom.
Filter Overview
Combination Pre-Filter
The pre-filter is a combination MERV15 particulate filter and treated GAC
(granular activated carbon). Our proprietary treated coconut carbon filter
(GAC) removes a wide variety of gases such as VOC’s, smoke, formaldehyde,
ozone, smog, and combustion gases. This filter should be replaced with every
9-12 months of use.
Main HEPA Filter
The main HEPA filter is rated at 99.99% at 0.3 microns. This filter should be
replaced with every 24-36 months of use or when the filter turns a dark grey
color.
EC Advantages
- More efficient and use up to 90% less power.
- More reliable since it runs cooler.
- More compact.
- Quieter – no motor hum that you can get with an AC motor.
Why does the motor/fan start and stop more slowly than an AC motor? EC motors have a soft start programmed into the motor to limit the start-up current the motor draws.The ramp down after power is removed is only a function of the inertia of the fan and the friction of the bearing system. A high quality bearing system will take longer to slow down and stop since the friction is minimized (alignment is better, lubricant is better, etc.).

How to Replace the Filters
Follow the steps on pages 7 and 8 to remove the cover and access the filters.
Most filter changes will simply be a replacement of the pre- filter. All of
our used filters can be placed directly in the trash.
Reset the Filter Replace Indicator
Press and hold the Filter Reset button beneath the flashing light for a few
seconds. The light will turn off and the filter counter will reset.
Ordering Replacement Filters Visit us at oransi.com or contact our customer
service team at 888-281-3948.
How to Install the Cover
-
The cover only fits one way. There is a notch in the bottom for the side where the user interface is located.
-
Lower the cover onto the air purifier. When properly seated it will be as shown above.
-
The key to getting the cover to engage with the safety switch is to ensure the cover clasp seats with the clasp of the base of the air purifier on the user interface side. We suggest you lower the cover onto the unit and then lift about one inch. Lower the cover with the long sides pressed in so the cover rests inside the guides along the bottom and ensure it seats with the clasps by the user interface. In lifting the cover up and down you should hear the safety switch click like it’s being engaged.
a. Press in on the long sides so the white cover rests in the guard rails along the
length of the air purifier as shown above. If the cover rests outside the guard rails it may bend somewhat and may not make contact with the safety switch.
b.Clasp the latches on the user interface side first. You may need to lift up slightly on the cover and pull back to get both latches to seat as shown below.
c.The latch from the top cover must rest into the other part of the latch on the base of the air purifier. -
Clasp the two latches on the user interface side first. Then clasp the latches on the opposite side. If the latches on the opposite side do not latch, lift the cover slightly (with the user interface side still latched) and re-seat so they can latch properly.
T R O U B L E S H O O T I N G
If your unit is not turning on or running properly try the following:
- Turn the red Power switch to the Off position.
- Turn this switch back to On.
- If this does not fix the issue then the top cover is probably not making proper contact with a safety switch inside the air purifier.
a. Remove the 4 clasps near the base and remove the top cover.
b. Press in on the safety switch (shown below) with power to the air purifier. The fan should begin to run.
c. Re-install the cover as outlined below.
Using Your Oransi
Always operate your air purifier indoors on a level surface.
Locate your air purifier wherever you spend most of your time. Typically, a
bedroom, living space, office waiting room, or classroom. Set the fan speed to
a level that is comfortable for you. Low settings are less audible. In most
cases, you can run your air purifier on a very low fan.
For larger areas, consider a higher fan speed when you’re absent and then turn
the setting lower when you return.
Air enters your Oransi at the bottom and exits the top, so you can place the
unit anywhere in a room. However, be careful that curtains do not block air
intake or exit.
