OPERATION & CLEANING

CAUTION!NEVER OPERATE THE AIR PURIFIER WITHOUT THE HEPA FILTER PROPERLY INSTALLED. PERMANENT MOTOR DAMAGE COULD OCCUR.

Each time you start the air purifier, it is a good idea to run it on high for a few seconds for fast, initial cleaning. Then set to medium or low as desired.

This air purifier is equipped with a pre-filter and a HEPA filter. Room air is drawn into the air purifier through the air intake grill and passes through the filter. The filtered air is released from the top of the unit and is dispersed upwards into the room.

3.DO NOT attempt to clean the filter; it IS NOT washable and washing it will damage it.

4.Plug the air purifier into power outlet and turn ON.
