Cleaning And Storage - Honeywell HPA250B Series Owner's Manual

ELECTRONIC FILTER CHANGE REMINDER
This air purifier has two electronic filter check lights to remind you when
to check and replace the HEPA Filters and Odor Reducing Pre-Filter.
The "Filters" or "Pre-Filter" light will illuminate when the HEPA Filters
and/or the pre-filter needs to be replaced. These indicator lights are based
on the number of hours the air purifier has been in use. Depending on
the environment and airborne particles in the area, the filters may need
to be changed before the recommended time (Fig. 6).
You should periodically check these filters. Depending on operating conditions,
the HEPA Filters should be replaced every 12 months, and the Odor
Reducing Pre-Filter every 3 months, especially if there have been heavy
odors and airborne particles in the home.
To RESET Either Electronic Filter Check:
After you have replaced the appropriate filters, plug the unit back in. The "Check Filters" or "Check Pre-Filter"
light will remain on until it is reset. With the unit powered off, press the lighted button and hold for approximately
3 seconds until the light turns off. The Electronic Filter Check is now reset. Depending on individual usage
(environment and hours used), you may need to replace filters more or less frequently.
NOTE: If you change the Pre-Filter or HEPA Filter before the Electronic Filter Check lights are illuminated, you
should still reset the indicator. With the unit plugged in and powered off, press and hold the appropriate "Filters" or
"Pre-Filter" button for 5 seconds. The light will flash red twice to signal that the indicator has been reset.
These cleaning intervals are intended as guidelines only. Performance of any filter media is dependent upon the
concentration of particles going through the system. High concentrations of airborne particles such as dust, pet
dander, and smoking will reduce the useful performance of the filter.
NOTE: None of the filters are washable. DO NOT immerse them in water.
WARNING: Filters may be harmful if ingested. Avoid breathing dust when cleaning or changing filters.
REPLACING THE CERTIFIED HEPA FILTERS
See INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS on page 4 of this manual.
See REPLACEMENT FILTERS on page 8 of this manual for replacement filter information.

CLEANING AND STORAGE

We recommend that you clean the air purifier at least once every 3 months and before extended storage. Use only
a dry cloth to wipe the external surfaces of the air purifier.
DO NOT USE WATER, WAX, POLISH, OR ANY CHEMICAL SOLUTION.
If your air purifier will not be used for more than 30 days, we recommend that you:
• Remove the HEPA Filters from the unit.
• Wrap the HEPA Filters in an air tight plastic bag.
• Remove the Odor Reducing Pre-Filter and place it in an air tight plastic bag.
