SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: To reduce the risk of electrical 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.

WARNING

• Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. Unplug the unit by grasping, and pulling the plug.
• Do not use an extension cord. Position the air purifier so the plug on the power cord easily reaches a standard electrical outlet for a polarized plug.
• Do not use the air purifier outdoors or on wet surfaces. Doing so may result in electric shock or serious injury. Use only indoors and under dry conditions.

Operating Instructions

GETTING STARTED

1. Place the air purifier on a hard level surface such as a table or desk.
   Be sure the grill is not blocked by other objects and there are no candles or flames near the unit.

2. Plug into the nearest standard electrical outlet that accepts a polarized plug.

3. To select the air cleaning speed, press the Power Button and the unit starts to operate under AUTO mode. Press the Auto/Fan Button until you reach the desired speed (Low, Medium, High).

Control Panel Instructions

A) Power Button: Pressing the Power Button once will illuminate the display screen and the unit will start to operate under AUTO mode. Pressing the button again will turn the unit off.
B) AUTO mode/Fan Speed:
If the unit is left in AUTO mode, the air purifier will automatically sense and adjust the air cleaning speed when it detects pollutants in the air. The Light Bar on the control panel will clearly show your current air condition.
• Green-Clean • Yellow-Low pollution • Orange-Medium pollution • Red-High pollution Or, press the Auto/Fan Button repeatedly for the desired fan speed .
• Low for silent mode • Medium for normal use • High for maximum cleaning
C) Operation with Oxygenator: Button is used for turning the Catalytic Oxygenator on and off (symbol “UV + TIO2” lights up when activated ). This feature provides additional air freshness via the release of negative ions and is designed to run continuously, but may be turned off if desired.
D) Timer: Use button to set the timer function—adjustable between 1~9 hours or continuous operation (denoted by the circulated ). Symbol shows the operating period that has been set (1H, 2H, 3H, 4H, 5H, 6H, 7H, 8H, 9H, ).

CLEANING INTERVALS
Proper care and cleaning of the air purifier is critical to performance. The following chart shows the cleaning intervals and method.

required, follow with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.
Electrostatic Collector Cell| 4 to 6 weeks| Soak in warm water with mild liquid dish detergent. Rinse and dry completely. For tough dirt and residue we recommend using Rejuvenate Stainless Steel Cleaner (purchase at www.Air- Innovations.com).
Pre-Filter| 2 to 4 weeks| Rinse thoroughly in warm water or as needed and dry completely before replac- ing.
VOC Odor Absorber| 6 months, or as needed| Replace filter (purchase at www .Air-Innovations.com). Do not wash; vacuum gently with a soft brush attachment to clean if necessary.
Catalytic Oxygenator| As needed| Vacuum the front surface gently with a soft brush attachment. Do not use liquids for cleaning.

CLEANING THE PRE-FILTER

1. Unplug the air purifier.
2. Open the cover from the right side by pressing the Cover Release button.
3. Pull the Electrostatic Collector Cell straight up and out of the cabinet; place to the side.
4. Remove the Pre-Filter by gently pulling on the finger tab, located on the right side of the filter.
5. Thoroughly rinse the Pre-Filter and let it air dry before placing it back in the cabinet. Do not use heated or compressed air as part of the drying process.
6. Insert the Pre-Filter back into the unit and snap into place.
7. Close the cover securely.

CLEANING THE ELECTROSTATIC COLLECTOR CELL

Note: The Collector Cell may require more frequent cleaning if “arcing” occurs. Arcing is a sharp snapping sound that occurs when large particles are collected on the Collector Cell. If prolonged or continuous arcing occurs the Collector Cell should be cleaned and dried thoroughly.

1. Unplug the air purifier.

2. Open the cover from the right side by pressing the Cover Release button.

3. Pull the Collector Cell straight up and out of the cabinet.

4. Place in sink, bathtub or other location where cleaner can cover every surface.

5. Rinse or soak in warm water for loose debris. Mild liquid dish detergent in water may be used to help break down tough dirt and residue.
   Thoroughly rinse the Collector Cell with clean water.

6. Tough residue such as from tobacco smoke may need additional cleaning or longer soaking.
   We recommend using Rejuvenate Stainless Steel Cleaner (purchase at www.Air- Innovations.com).
   Note: To prevent damage to the components of the Collector Cell, do not put in the dishwasher or use a cotton swab.

7. Shake excess water from the Collector Cell or place in direct sunlight to speed up drying time. Do not use heated or compressed air to dry.

8. Place the Collector Cell back into the unit. The Collector Cell is designed so that it can only be inserted in one direction. The arrow on Cell should point towards unit face. Please refer to instructions on page 4 for resetting after cleaning; if not reset, the “CLEAN CELL” indicator will remain on screen.

Note: The Collector Cell must be completely dry after cleaning in order to operate properly. If the Collector Cell is damp from cleaning, arcing may occur; remove Cell and let air dry longer. If the power supply detects the Collector Cell is wet, it shuts down power to the cell and causes the red “CLEAN CELL” indicator to blink rapidly. Re-dry the Collector Cell until the power supply successfully restarts; the unit will return to its original speed and run as normal.

CLEANING THE EXHAUST GRILL

1. Unplug the air purifier.
2. Remove the Cleaning Brush from the storage slot located under the cover.
3. Brush away any debris that has collected between the grill slots.
4. Return the cleaning brush to the storage slot.

Maintenance

2. Open the cover from the right side by pressing the Cover Release button.
3. Using the two finger tabs pull the filter straight up and out of the cabinet.
