SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only.

WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug

(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug

fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety

purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by

using an adapter. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still

does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be

used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to

or greater than the rating of the air purifier. Route the electrical or

extension cord where it cannot be tripped over and will be clear

of furniture to prevent damage from pinching.

About the Air Purifier:

The air purifier functions as an air cleaner by helping to remove particulates (such as

pet dander, dust, pollen, mold, and mildew spores) from the air.

The air is cleaned in four stages:

1. The fan draws room air into the unit through the air inlet grille.

2. Air then passes through the unit’s carbon filter, which assists in eliminating odors.

3. The HEPA-grade permanent filter then removes particles, as small as 5 microns at 99%

effectiveness, from air passing through the filter.

4. The purified air is then released back into the room through the air outlet grille.

Selecting the Proper Location

DO:

• Place the air purifier on a flat, stable surface.

• Place the air purifier near an electrical outlet. Make sure that

the air purifier and the cord do not present tripping hazards.

• Select a central location with adequate air circulation.

• Turn off and unplug the air purifier before moving or servicing

it or if it will not be used for several days.

• Route the electrical cord clear of furniture to prevent damage

from pinching.

DO NOT:

• Do not stand, sit, or place any objects on the air purifier. It is not

designed to support additional

weight.

• Do not block the air intake grille with drapes, curtains, or blinds.

This may cause reduced performance.

• Do not use in a kitchen, garage, or area with grease, oil, or

chemicals such as solvents or insecticides.

• Do not place on or near heat sources such as stoves, radiators,

or heaters, or in direct sunlight.

• To reduce electrical noise and interference, do not place on,

near, or plug into the same outlet as TVs, baby monitors, or

cordless phones.

IMPORTANT: Your air purifier is designed for easy use and maintenance. Make sure that you remove all packing materials and that HEPA-grade

permanent filter and carbon filter are properly installed before use. Remember to remove the plastic bags from filters before using.

To prevent the risk of personal injury or damage to the air purifier and provide the best possible performance of your air purifier, follow the

placement guidelines below:

Align the top edge of carbon filter with the top set of plastic pegs

located inside the air inlet grille. Push the filter down onto all three

sets of pegs (top, middle, and bottom) until the plastic pegs poke

through the other side of the filter, securing it to the air inlet grille.

The air inlet grille can now be placed onto the unit.

WHISPER

®

CLEAN = quiet operation or constant low-speed filtration

MEDIUM = slightly higher fan speed to filter dust, pollen, smoke, etc.

QUICK™ CLEAN = high-speed filtration for more immediate cleaning

IONIZER = releases negatively charged ions into the air, which join

with small particles (such as dust) to form large particles

that are more easily captured by the filter
