IMPORTANT:

• NOTE: DO NOT attempt to wash and re-use the

HEPA filter.

• If the filters are enclosed in plastic bags, remove

before use.

NOTE:

Every few weeks, check the condition of filters. Filter life will

vary, depending on air quality and usage. On average, HEPA

filters need replacement every 10-12 months.

1. Turn off and unplug the air cleaner.

2. Open the air inlet grill and examine the foam pre-

filter. Remove any dust or lint, and wash in warm

soapy water. Rinse, drip dry, and place back into grill

inlet.

3. Remove HEPA filter from the unit by pulling it gently

towards you and discard it. DO NOT attempt to

clean the old HEPA filter.

4. Install the new HAPF300 HEPA filter into the unit.This

model utilizes a hang tab and filter clips to insure

that the filter is properly in place. Before replacing

the filter, make sure that the hang tab is securely in

place. The clip can only be attached to the tabs on

the filter one way. The

filter clip should easily

slide onto the filter hang

tab with only a small

amount of pressure. DO

NOT use force while

attaching the clip to the

filter. (Fig. 2)

5. Align the clip on the top

of true HEPA filter with

rails on the inside of the

cleaner unit. Gently slide

the filter onto the rail. (Fig.

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 cleaner before moving or

cleaning the unit, opening the grill, changing the filters

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, return

appliance to manufacturer 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. 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.

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

temperatures between 40° F and 110° F.

20. WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock,

DO NOT use this appliance with any solid-state speed

control device.

PPLLUUGG SSAAFFEETTYY

CCAAUUTTIIOONN::

To reduce the risk of electric shock, THIS

PRODUCT HAS A POLARIZED PLUG (one blade is

wider than the other).

This plug will fit into a polarized

outlet only one way. If the plug

does not fit fully into the outlet,

reverse the plug. If it still does

not fit, contact qualified

personnel to install the proper

outlet. DO NOT ALTER THE PLUG IN ANY WAY.

CCOORRDD SSAAFFEETTYY

•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 cleaner (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.

GGEETT TTOO KKNNOOWW YYOOUURR AAIIRR CCLLEEAANNEERR

Your true HEPA air cleaner removes up to 99.97% of

airborne allergens as small as 0.3 microns, including

ragweed pollen, grass pollen, tree pollen, household dust,

dust mite debris, mold spores, pet dander and smoke

from the air passing through the filter.

IIOONNIIZZEERR

This appliance has an optional ionizer feature which,

when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing

filtered air to help the air purification process.

What Are Ions?

Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative

charge. They exist naturally around us: in the air, water,

and ground. Both positive and negative ions are

colorless, odorless, and completely harmless.

How Does The Ionizer Work?

Negative ions help air purification 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. These larger particles are

then more easily captured by the filter system.

Important Notes:

Your ionizer may produce an occasional popping or

cracking sound. This is normal and occurs when a small

buildup of ions is discharged.

After extended use, you may notice dust around the grills

or front panel. This is caused by negative ions exiting the

air outlet, evidence of the ionizer’s air cleaning

effectiveness. You can remove the dust with a soft brush

or clean, damp cloth.

Larger particles may be attracted to positively charged

surfaces throughout the home, like walls or floors.

• This may occur more frequently when the filter is

nearing the end of its useful product life and unable

to capture as many charged particles.

• Excessive amounts of pet dander, dust, or smoke

may decrease the life expectancy of the filter and

interfere with the ionization process.

To help prevent particles from attracting to surfaces

throughout your home:

• You may want to run the ionizer less often.

• Check the condition of the filter more frequently.

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.

TTRRUUEE HHEEPPAA FFIILLTTEERR

HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are

designed to remove up to 99.97% of airborne pollutants

at 0.3 microns or larger, from the air that passes through

them. These include tobacco smoke, household dust, pet

dander and pollen.
