Battery replacement
1. Squeeze tabs of battery cover and at the same time pull
cover out of remote.
2. Insert battery as shown and close battery cover.
3. Always use 3V lithium battery CR2025. Incorrect battery
usage may cause battery fluid leakage and/or damage.
•
Do not use volatile fluids such as benzene, paint thinner
or scouring powder, as they may damage the surface.
Keep the unit dry.
•
Lightly vacuum air quality sensor every three months.
Possible causes/solution
No, the filters that come with the unit will fall apart and be ruined if water is run
through them. (The Washable Pre Filter and HEPA 13 Filter for model EAP450 can be
washed)
No, vacuuming will only spread the dust back into the air. If you think the filter is too
dirty, it may be time to replace. (The Washable Pre Filter for model EAP450 can be
cleaned with a vacuum cleaner or soft brush)
The unit has been concealed in a tightly wrapped package of currogated cardboard
and plastic. Because this has a fan and pulls air through it, it may give off some "new"
odours. Depending on sensitivity, this should wear off in several days or perhaps a
week depending on how much it is used.
CADR ratings are provided from a controlled testing environment, if that environment
changes, it can affect the performance. However if you have a slightly larger room than
what the CADR rating is, it will still help improve the air, but may take a bit longer to
do so.
Allow proper air circulation around the sides and infront of the unit. If there are doors
or narrow hallways it may reduce the airflow to the air cleaner, but will eventually
circulate near the machine.
Clear the sensor with a vacuum cleaner, as it may be blocked or clogged.
Sometimes a compressed can of air may unclog the dust in the sensor.
The unit will capture most dust and particles, however with opening doors, windows,
central HVAC etc... there may still be some level of dust that you can see.
The filters are meant to rest inside the unit. Once the unit is turned on, the force of air
pulled through the machine will create a tight seal of the filters.
This is normal, especially at night when all environmental sounds are quiet, you may
hear the motor running in repetition.
Make sure the air quality sensor is not blocked or clogged.
Move the unit closer to the offending odours.
Replace the filters as they may have reached their capacity to absorb pollutants. You
may need to replace filters more frequently.
Press the RESET FILTER button by gently inserting a paper-clip into the
RESET FILTER button hole. Hold for 3-5 seconds until a "beep" sounds to
indicate the unit has been reset.
