contact with the main housing of the air purifier.

FILTER REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

To keep your Holmes

®

Air Purifier operating at its peak

efficiency, the multi-stage filter cartridge should be

replaced on a regular basis. While the length of time

between filter changes will vary based on the amount of

use and the conditions in which the unit is run, it will be

approximately every three months. To change the filter,

use the following steps. Remember, always unplug the

unit when cleaning it or changing the filter.

1. Looking at the back of the unit, notice the unit’s

plastic finger tab at the top of the filter and a pull

tab on the filter. Gently pull up on the finger tab

while pulling on the filter tab. The filter should pull

away from the unit.

2. Discard the used filter, gently wipe the inlet grill

taking care not to damage the foam.

3. Remove the replacement filter from its packaging

and its sealed bag. Mark on the "Replacement Filter"

sticker the date on which the filter should likely be

replaced. This date should be approximately three

months from date of installation.

4. Install the filter by placing the white side towards the

unit and introducing the bottom of the filter into the

filter cavity. The filter will be resting against the

sealing foam and on the filter support ledges.

5. Pivot the top of the filter towards the unit and push it

into position. The filter tab should latch on the filter.

CORD SAFETY

• The length of cord used on this appliance was

selected to reduce tangling or tripping hazards.

• 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

electrical rating of the air purifier (see rating label

marked on product).

• Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so

that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop

where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally

tripped over.

IONIZER

Your Air Purifier has an ionizer, which, when turned on,

releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air. Ions are

tiny particles that carry a positive or negative charge.

These ions exist naturally around us, in the air, water and

ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless,

odorless and completely harmless.

Negative ions help the air purification process by

attaching themselves to very small airborne particles in

the room. These particles take on a negative charge and

may join with positively charged particles such as dust,

pollen, smoke and pet dander to form larger particles

that are then more readily captured by the filter system,

or they may be attracted to positively charged surfaces

like walls or floors.

You may also note after extended use, that dust may

have collected around the grills or front panel. This is

from the ionization affect caused by the negative ions

exiting from the air outlet.

This is additional evidence of the air cleaning

effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be easily

removed with a clean, damp cloth or soft brush.

CAUTION: The ionizer in this appliance produces less

ozone than the UL established limits of 50ppb. However,

in high concentrations, ozone can be harmful to birds and

small pets. To prevent ozone buildup, we suggest using

the ionizer in well ventilated areas with the fan on.

NOTE: It is important to replace the filter at the

recommended intervals. Using the ionizer in conjunction

with dirty filters may result in dirty particles exiting the

air purifier and being attracted to walls, carpets, furniture

or other household objects. These dirty particles may

prove very difficult to remove.

BEFORE USE

1. Carefully unpack your Air Purifier. Select a firm level

place where there are no obstructions to the air inlet

or filtered air outlet.

2. Check the rear side of the unit to see if the filter is

covered by a plastic bag. If it is, remove plastic bag

before use and place filter into unit.

3. DO NOT POINT FILTERED AIR OUTLET TOWARDS WALL.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions

should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric

shock, and injury to persons. These precautions include:

1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2. To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance

directly into a 120V AC electrical outlet.

3. If the filter is covered by a bag when shipped,

remove plastic bag before use.

4. Keep the cord out of heavy traffic areas. To avoid

fire hazard, NEVER put the cord under rugs, near

heat registers, radiators, stoves, or heaters.

5. To protect against electrical hazards, DO NOT

immerse the appliance in water or other liquids. Do

not use near water.

6. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is

used by or near children, or disabled persons.

7. Always unplug the air purifier before moving or

cleaning the unit, opening the grill, changing the filter

and whenever the unit is not in use. To disconnect the

unit, be sure to pull the plug and not the cord.

8. NEVER drop or insert any objects into the openings of

the unit.

9. DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord

or plug. If the motor fan fails to operate or the unit

has been dropped or damaged in any manner,

discard unit or return to an authorized service facility

for examination and/or repair.

10. Use appliance only for intended household use as

described in this manual. Any other use not

recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire,

electric shock, or injury to persons. The use of

attachments not recommended or sold by Jarden

Consumer Solutions may cause hazards.

11. DO NOT use outdoors.

12. NEVER place on a soft surface such as a bed or sofa

as this could cause the unit to tip over and block the

air inlet or outlet grills.

13.

Keep unit away from heated surfaces and open flames.

14. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or

mechanical functions on this unit. Doing so will void

your warranty. The inside of the unit contains no user

serviceable parts. All servicing should be performed

by Jarden Consumer Solutions or an authorized

Jarden Consumer Solutions Center.

15. DO NOT place anything on top of unit.

16. NEVER use detergents, gasoline, glass cleaner,

furniture polish, paint thinner, or other household

solvents to clean any part of the appliance.

17. Always turn the appliance off before unplugging it.

18. This appliance should only be used in a room with

temperatures between 40° F and 110° F.

19. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric

shock, DO NOT use this appliance with any solid-state

speed control device. Do not run cord under carpeting.

Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar

coverings. Do not route cord under furniture or

appliances. Arrange cord away from traffic area and

where it will not be tripped over.

20. The ionizer in this appliance produces less ozone than

the UL established limits of 50ppb (parts per billion).

However, in high concentrations, ozone can be

harmful to birds and small pets. To prevent ozone

buildup, we suggest using the ionizer in well

ventilated areas with the fan on.
