1. With the 120 VAC power turned on at the circuit
breaker for the furnace, push the air cleaner ON-OFF
switch to the “ON” position (Figure 20).
2. With the furnace blower running, the air cleaner will be
operating. An arcing or “snapping” sound may be
heard. This will occur occasionally, however the unit
is operating properly.
3. With the furnace blower running, the Operating Light
should be ON. If the Operating Light is not ON this
signifies that the cells need washing, or that trouble
exists in the unit.
If, after washing the cells, the Operating Light stays off, the
cell could be wet, improperly placed in the cabinet or may
need servicing.
NOTE: NOTE:
NOTE: NOTE:
NOTE: An occasional flicker of the light accompanied by
harmless sparking or snapping noise may occur. This is
caused by trapping large particles of dirt. If arcing is
continuous, the cells should be washed or checked for
service problems see Basic SST Service Guide.
4. Remove the cell(s) and pre-filter(s) from cabinet.
Using a solution of warm water and low sudsing
detergent, soak cell(s) and pre-filter(s) for 20 to 30
minutes.
NOTE: NOTE:
NOTE: NOTE:
NOTE: Ionizing wires may become coated causing
loss of cleaning ability by the collecting cell. Using a
damp cloth, wipe each ionizing wire, exercising care
not to damage them.
5. Remove the cell(s) and pre-filter(s) from solution and
rinse thoroughly with clean water.

of 2 hours. Cell(s) and pre-filter(s) may be tipped at
a slight angle to expedite the drip-dry process.
7. Reinstall the cell(s) and pre-filter(s) in the cabinet.
8. Replace the power pack. Turn furnace fan on. After 30
minutes push ON-OFF switch on the power pack to
the “ON” position.
A moderate amount of arcing or “snapping” may occur
at this time, which will indicate that the cell(s) are still
damp. If the noise is objectionable, push the ON-OFF
switch to the “OFF” position and allow additional time
for cell(s) and pre-filter(s) to dry. In some cases the
Operating Light will remain OFF during this initial
activation of the air cleaner, and this would indicate
that the cell(s) are not completely dry. The Operating
Light should remain ON while the furnace fan is
running once the drying is complete.
