  13. Locate air purifier near the outlet and
    DO NOT use with extension cord or power strip.
  14. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature.
  15. A loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and a distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.

HOW YOUR AIR PURIFIER WORKS

This model air purifier incorporates a 2-stage cleaning system to help clean the air that passes through the filter in the unit (Fig. 1).

Stage 1: Type Pre-Filter B+ Household Gas & Odor Reducing Pre-Filter
Stage 2: Type Filter H Certified HEPA Filter captures the following microscopic airborne allergens and particles: dust, pollen, pet dander, dust mite debris and smoke as small as 0.3 microns from the air that passes through the filter

GETTING STARTED

  • Select a firm, level, and flat location.
  • When operating, large volumes of air are drawn toward the air purifier. Surrounding areas should be cleaned and/or vacuumed frequently to prevent build-up of dust and other contaminants. This may also help prolong the life of the filter. If the unit is placed on a light colored carpet, a small mat or rug should be used underneath to prevent staining. This is especially important in homes with contamination from smoking, fireplaces, or where candles are burned.
  • Ensure the front of the unit faces away from the closest wall or furniture.
  • Ensure no grilles are blocked.

INSTALL CERTIFIED HEPA FILTERS AND ODOR REDUCING PRE-FILTER

  • The Certified HEPA Filters are supplied within the air purifier. They are wrapped to ensure purity, and are labeled to help identify the proper replacement filter Filter H .
  • Before using your new air purifier you must remove the wrapper covering the filter(s).
    Make sure the air purifier is OFF and unplugged. While pressing on the tab at the top of the rear grille, pull the grille towards you and remove it from the unit and set it aside (See Fig. 2). Grasp the sides of each filter frame near its top end and pull outward. Repeat for the second filter if applicable.
  • Remove protective wrap from the filter(s).
  • Place the HEPA Filter(s) into the air purifier housing with the arrows pointing toward the unit. Insert the bottom edge of the filter frame and press the top of the filter down and inward until the filter is firmly in place. Repeat for the second filter if applicable.

    Install the Household Gas & Odor Reducing Pre-Filter that is supplied within the air purifier.

  • Remove the pre-filter from the protective plastic bag.
  • Secure the pre-filter under the pre-filter clips on the inside of the rear grille.
  • • Replace the rear grille by lining up the tab at the bottom of the grille with the slot in the air purifier.

Push the top of the grille towards the unit until it snaps in place. Snap the filter grille back into place.

OPERATION

This product earned the ENERGY STAR label by meeting strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. EPA. Room air cleaners have demonstrated the potential for improving air quality and providing health benefits. EPA does not endorse manufacturer claims regarding the degree to which a specific product will produce healthier indoor air.

The energy efficiency of this ENERGY STAR certified model is measured based on a ratio between the model’s CADR for Smoke and the electrical energy it consumes, or CADR/Watt.

Portable air purifiers are more effective in rooms where all doors and windows are closed. It is recommended that you run your air purifier while you are at home to help clean the air.

HPA060 Series Operation

  • Once you have removed the protective wrappers from the filters and have installed them in the unit, ensure the air purifier’s control knob is turned to the OFF postion and plug the power cord into a working outlet.
  • Select desired cleaning level by turning knob to Low, Medium, or High setting (Fig. 3).

Model HPA160 Series Operation

ELECTRONIC FILTER CLEAN REMINDER

These air purifier models each have two electronic filter checks to remind you when to check and replace the HEPA Filter(s) and Household Gas & Odor Reducing Pre-Filter based on the air purifier’s hours of use.
When the HEPA Filter(s) need to be replaced, a red LED on the Check Filter(s) button will come on and remain on until it is RESET.
Fig. 5 Will illuminate when it is time to change HEPA filters

You may unplug the air purifier without interrupting the filter check. A red LED on the “Check Pre-Filter” button will illuminate when it is time to replace the pre-filter.

You should periodically check these filters. Depending on operating conditions, the HEPA Filters should be replaced every 12 months, and the Household Gas & Odor Reducing Pre-Filter every 3 months, especially if there have been heavy odors in the home.

To RESET Either Electronic Filter Check
When a filter check light remains on, it is time to replace the HEPA or Pre-Filter and reset the filter check light.
With the unit powered on, press the lighted button and hold for approximately 2 seconds until the light turns off.

Depending on individual usage (environment and hours used), you may need to check and replace filters more or less frequently.

These cleaning intervals are intended as guidelines only. Performance of any filter media is dependent upon the concentration of particles going through the system. High concentrations of particles such as dust, pet dander and smoking will reduce the useful performance of the filter.
NOTE: None of the filters are washable. DO NOT immerse them in water.
WARNING: Filters may be harmful if ingested. Avoid breathing dust when changing filters.

FILTER REPLACEMENT

See INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS on page 3 of this manual.
The Certified HEPA Filter Filter H should be replaced one time per year for optimum performance. The Replacement Filter H Filters are available as model HRF-H1 (single pack) or HRF-H2 (2 pack).

If you would like your air purifier to remain effective at reducing household odors, and to operate most effectively, you should replace the Household Gas & Odor Reducing Pre-Filter once every 3 months. This Pre-Filter is available as the Household Gas & Odor Reducing Pre-Filter Pre-Filter B+ or model HRF-B1 (single pack) or HRF-B2 (2 pack).
To help ensure stated product performance, use only Genuine Honeywell Replacement Filters

CLEANING AND STORAGE

We recommend that you clean the air purifier at least once every 3 months and before extended storage. Use only a dry cloth to wipe the external surfaces of the air purifier.
DO NOT USE WATER, WAX, POLISH, OR ANY CHEMICAL SOLUTION.
If your Air Purifier will not be used for more than 30 days, we recommend:

  • Remove the HEPA Filters from the unit.
  • Wrap the HEPA Filters in an air tight plastic bag.
  • Remove the Household Gas & Odor Reducing Pre-Filter and place it in an air tight plastic bag.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • My Air Purifier is starting to make noise and the air output is less. What’s wrong?
    The filters may be dirty. High amounts of particles can block the pores in the filter and stop the air from moving through it. Replace the filters.
  • How long should I run my Air Purifier?
    The unit will be most effective when doors and windows are closed and should be run when you are at home.
  • Can I wash any of the filters in my Air Purifier?
    No. Washing either filter will ruin it.
