IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including

the following:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE

USING THIS APPLIANCE

The manufacturer cannot accept responsibility for damage

caused when the appliance is not used according to the

instructions, or for uses other than those for which it

was intended.

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:

• Do not repair or modify the unit unless

speciﬁcally recommended in this manual.

All other repairs should be completed by a

qualiﬁed technician.

• The plug for this unit is polarized with one

blade wider than the other. Do not force the

plug into an electrical outlet.

• Do not alter the plug in any way. If the plug

does not ﬁt into the outlet, reverse the plug.

If it still does not ﬁt, contact a qualiﬁed

technician to install a proper outlet.

• Do not use if the power cord or plug is

damaged or the connection to the wall

outlet is loose.

• Use AC 120V only.

• Do not damage, break, forcefully bend,

pull, twist, bundle, coat, pinch, or place

heavy objects on the power cord.

• Periodically remove dust from the power

plug. This will reduce the chance that

humidity will accumulate, which increases

the risk of electric shock.

• If the power plug is damaged, it must be

replaced by the manufacturer or a qualiﬁed

technician.

• Remove the power plug from the outlet

before cleaning the unit. When removing

the power plug, grasp by holding the plug

smoke-generating insecticides.

• Do not clean unit with benzene or paint

thinner. Do not spray insecticides on the

unit.

• Do not use the unit where it is humid or

where the unit may get wet, such as in a

bathroom.

• Do not insert ﬁngers or foreign objects into

the air intake or outlet.

• Do not use the unit near ﬂammable gases.

Do not use near cigarettes, incense, or

other spark-creating items.

• Unit will not remove carbon monoxide

emitted from heating appliances or other

sources.

• Do not block the intake or outlet vents.

• Do not use near hot objects, such as a

stove. Do not use where the unit may come

into contact with steam.

• Do not use the unit on its side.

• Keep away from products that generate

oily residue, such as a deep fryer.

Description of the air cleaner

Five-stage Cleaning

Air undergoes five separate processes before returning,

freshened and cleaned, to the room.

Stage 1 Washable Anti-Bacterial Pre-Filter (#7)

This reusable filter collects large particles, pollen,

pet hair, lint, etc.

Stage 2 HEPA Filter (#6)

Captures 99.99% of particles and impurities as small

as .3 microns.

Stage 3 Nano-Silver Mesh (#4)

A shield of silver particles one billionth of a meter in

size neutralizes bacteria on contact.

Stage 4 Washable Carbon Filter (#4)

This reusable activated granular carbon effectively collects

chemical vapors and odors caused by cigarette smoke,

organic decay and cooking.

Stage 5 PlasmaWave (#1)

In the final stage of cleaning, PlasmaWave technology generates

both positive and negative ions to create plasma clusters which

instantly neutralize viruses, bacteria, chemical vapors and odors

in the air.
