CARE AND MAINTENANCE
WASHABLE ACTIVE CARBON FILTER CARE
HAND WASH ONLY!
DO NOT TUMBLE DRY!
Care Cycle
When the CLEAN FILTER Indicator Light lights
up, this indicates that the filter needs to be
cleaned. If the unit is kept on 24 hours a day
then the Filter Indicator Light will activate in
about 2 months.
The CLEAN FILTER Indicator Light is for ref-
erence. Clean the filter as often as necessary
when odor persists.
Dilute as indicated
on the detergent
container.
Allow the filter to soak approxi-
mately 30 minutes before wash-
ing.
If the filter surface is
very dirty, scrub with
an old toothbrush.
Rinse thoroughly with
clean water.
CAUTION
If rinsing in a container, be
sure to rinse 3 to 4 times
so that the odor is rinsed
thoroughly from the filter.
Remove excess water.
The filter will be saturated with water
after rinsing. To decrease drying time,
wrap the filter in an old thick towel so
that excess water can be removed.
CAUTION
Some carbon may ad-
here to the towel, but it
is harmless.
Dry the filter outdoors
if possible in a well
ventilated area.
CAUTION
The wet filter is heavy. Fix it securely for
drying to make sure it does not fall down.
The filter takes longer to dry in winter, and
on rainy days. Wash it on a day when the
weather is good and dry it in the sun.
Move it indoors at night to prevent freez-
ing.
Dry the filter outdoors in a well ventilated
area. If dried indoors, the water dripping off
the filter may soil your floor.
Make sure that the activated carbon has
not shifted to one side inside the filter. If it
has, distribute it evenly with your fingers.
Let the filter dry thoroughly.
If used while the filter is still moist, then the
air that is exhausted from the main unit will
have an odor. It may take 1 or 2 days to dry.
Reinstalling the Filters.
