For Best Performance We recommend that you operate your Honeywell air purifier 24 hours a day because indoor air can be quickly contaminated by activity in a room, infiltration of outside air, and from other sources of contamination. While all the air in a room will not be processed by the air purifier, the more air circulated through the filter, the more filtered air is returned to the room. Portable air purifiers will be much more effective in rooms where all doors and windows are closed. Set-up • Select a firm, level and flat location. For proper air flow, locate the unit at least 3 feet (1 meter) from any wall or furniture. • Due to the large volume of air drawn towards the air purifier, Fig A surrounding areas should be cleaned and/or vacuumed frequently to prevent dust buildup. If the unit is placed on light colored carpeting, a small mat or rug should be used to ease cleaning and prevent any permanent staining of carpeting. This is particularly important in homes with heavier contamination from smoking or fireplaces. • Installing Rubber Feet: Your air purifier should have a plastic bag attached to it that includes 4 rubber feet with an adhesive backing (Fig A). To limit product vibration attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the air purifier as indicated (Fig B). Fig B • Locate pre-filter in the box and install before initial operation. Refer to "Removing/Changing the Filters" section for proper installation. Construction Your Honeywell air purifier has five basic components: the locking mechanism, the endcap, the HEPA filter, the activated carbon pre-filter, and the base assembly (with controls and motor).
