FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I use the additional pre-filter that is packed in the plastic bag?
Your air purifier came with an installed Washable Pre-Filter that helps capture the larger airborne particles
before they reach the ifD® Filters. If you would like the additional benefit of Odor & VOC Reduction, you may
replace the Washable Pre-Filter with the Odor & VOC Reducing
bag with the purifier. You must first remove the Washable Pre-Filter that came in your air purifier and replace
it with the Pre-Filter. This pre-filter is not washable and should be replaced every 3 months for optimum
K
performance.
Can I wash my Odor & VOC Reducing
No. Washing the Odor & VOC Reducing Pre-filter will destroy it. However, the product comes with a Washable
Pre-Filter, which can be used instead of the Odor & VOC Reduction Pre-Filter.
How long should I run my Air Purifier?
It is recommended that you run your air purifier when you are at home to help clean the air. This unit will be
more effective when doors and windows are closed. If desired or conditions warrant, you may run your air
purifier 24 hours a day.
My Air Purifier is starting to make noise and the air output is less. What's wrong?
The filters may be dirty. High amounts of particles can block the pores in the filter and stop the air from
moving through it. The filter and pre-filter should be cleaned.
How does the electronic filter check work?
The filter check LED will illuminate when it is time to check the filters after 3 months of continuous operation
of the air purifier. After the filters have been cleaned, you should reset the Electronic Filter Check. See
instructions on page 5.
My Filter Check Light has not come on but when I checked my filter, it was really dirty.
In conditions where smoke, pets, or air with a lot of particles are present, it is possible that the filter could be
dirty sooner than indicated by the Check Filters light. The Check Filters light on your unit runs on a timer and
if there are more particles in your air than in an average home, your filter could need cleaning sooner than
indicated on the display. The indicator is intended to be used as a guideline and individual environmental
conditions will vary.
My unit will not turn on.
The air purifier has safety features to ensure that the unit is ready for operation. Check to make sure that the
ifD® Filters and rear grille are installed correctly. When properly installed, you will hear and audible "click"
when you re-install both the ifD® Filters and the rear grille. If your unit still won't turn on, contact Consumer
Relations at 1-800-477-0457.
