How to Change the Filters...
The only two parts requiring any service are the activated carbon
pre-filter and the HEPA filter. No tools are needed.To change either
filter, disassemble the unit as shown.
1. Loosen the carrying handle by turning it counterclockwise and lift
filter cage cover from unit.
For Model Series 10500: With the unit on a carpeted floor, twist the
air cleaner filter cage cover counterclockwise until it stops (about 90°),
and lift the cover from the base.
2. Lift HEPA filter and activated carbon pre-filter from the base.
3. Remove the fasteners from the activated carbon pre-filter and remove
it from the HEPA filter cartridge.
4. Replace filter(s) as needed, and discard used filters.
5. Wrap the activated carbon pre-filter around the HEPA filter
cartridge and secure it with the fasteners provided.
Reassemble your
Honeywell air cleaner as described below:
1. Place the assembled HEPA filter and the activated carbon pre-filter
on the base.
2. Replace the filter cage cover.
3. Reattach the carrying handle and turn it clockwise until securely
tightened.
For Model Series 10500: Position the filter cage cover on the unit.
Press down on filter cage cover and rotate clockwise until it snaps
securely into place. Place the power control switch in the OFF position.
If you store your Honeywell HEPA air cleaner for more than 30 days,
we recommend:
• Remove both the primary HEPA filter and the activated carbon pre-filter from the unit.
• Discard the pre-filter.
• Wrap the HEPA filter in an air-tight plastic bag or plastic wrap. Be sure that the
filter is totally sealed.
• To restore the air cleaner to service, unwrap the HEPA filter, install a new
activated carbon pre-filter, and replace both filters in the air cleaner.
(See "How to change the Filters..." section for proper installation.)
