THE SOLID STATE PERFORMANCE INDICATOR This air cleaner is equipped with a special solid state circuit that operates the optional W8600E Solid State Performance Indicator (see photo). The W8600E Indicator is designed to be mounted next to your thermostat, and to monitor the air cleaner performance. If you have ordered the W8600E Indicator, you will notice three light- emitting diodes (LEDs) on the W8600E labeled ON, WASH and CHECK. • During normal air cleaner opera- tion, the ON LED is lit (whene

OPERATING YOUR ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER Set the ON-OFF switch to ON. The air cleaner will now operate whenever your furnace/air conditioning system fan operates. For maximum air cleaning benefit and cleaner air conditioner coils, leave the air cleaner switch on at all times and the fan switch on your thermostat on. Of course, continuous fan operation will add a small amount to your electric bill each month. When the fan comes on, the neon light located near the ON-OFF switch will light, indicating

The air cleaner is off until the heating or air conditioning and fan start again. ON WASH CHECK If you do not want the air cleaner to run, set the ON-OFF switch to OFF to turn off the air cleaner. Your furnace and air conditioner will still operate normally, but without the added benefit of air cleaning. Normally, this switch should be ON at all times. ONE-CELL MODEL SH

GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR AIR CLEANER Run the air For greatest efficiency, the air cleaner should cleaner as much run all the time. To do this, set the fan switch on as possible your thermostat to ON, and make sure the air cleaner is switched on. The fan and air cleaner will run even when the furnace or air conditioner is off. Note: A manual fan switch may be built into the furnace fan controller. The air cleaner itself uses less power than a 40 watt light bulb (two-cell model—33 watts; single-

IMPORTANT • Check your dishwasher owner's manual. Some manufacturers do not recommend washing electronic cell(s) in their dishwashers. • If the dishwasher has upper and lower arms, position the cell(s) carefully to allow good water circulation. • Use care to avoid damaging the cell(s) when placing them in the dishwasher. Broken ionizer wires or bent collector plates are not covered under the warranty. • Very dirty cell(s), especially from tobacco or cooking smoke, can discolor the plastic parts

Washing the cell(s) in a tub CAUTION Hazardous chemical. Can cause personal injury. • Do not splash the detergent solution in eyes. Wear rubber gloves to avoid prolonged de- tergent contact with skin. • Keep detergent and solution out of reach of children. NOTE: Always wash the cell(s) first, then the prefilter to keep heavy lint from getting caught in the cell(s). STEP 1 Use a container, such as a laundry tub or trash container, that is large enough to hold one or both cell(s). NOTE: Sharp corn

STEP 5 Rinse the cell(s) and prefilter with a hard spray of very hot water; rinse the tub clean, then fill the tub with clean hot water and soak for 5 to 15 minutes. Rinse until the water draining from the cell(s) and prefilter no longer feels slippery. STEP 6 Wipe the ionizer wires and contact board on the end of the cell with a clean cloth. Washing the cell(s) Use the hand sprayer at a coin-operated do-it- at a car wash yourself car wash to wash the cell(s) and prefilter. Hold the nozzle at le

STEP 2 It is very important that the electronic cell(s) be properly replaced: a. Electrical contact board must face the power supply contacts. b. Airflow arrows on the cell(s) must point into the air duct. c. Hook the cell(s) on the metal hooks and rotate into the air cleaner. d. Rotate the cell latch to secure the cell(s).

If the cell(s) and prefilter are wet, the neon light may not come on and you may hear arcing. If the arcing is annoying, simply turn off the air cleaner for 2 to 3 hours or until the cell(s) are dry. If your air cleaner has a Solid State Performance Indicator, the CHECK LED may come on if you install wet cell(s) and prefilter. Again, if the neon light or the CHECK LED annoys

25,400 Postage HOW ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANING WORKS A word about The particles removed by the electronic air particle size cleaner tend to be very small—less than ten microns. But what is a 10 micron particle? The eye of an average sized sewing needle has a diameter of about 750 microns, and the dot in the “i” in the word micron is about 400 microns. Generally, particles smaller than ten microns can be seen only with a microscope, except in very large concentrations such as a puff of smoke. Your el

How the air First, large particles (lint, hair) are caught by the cleaner works prefilter. Then, as the dirty air passes through the intense high voltage electric field surrounding the ionizer wires, all particles, even the smallest particles down to 0.5 microns, are given an electric charge. The air then passes into the collector where the alternate parallel plates are charged positive and negative, creating a uniform electrostatic field. The charged particles stick to the collector plates. The

The air cleaner The regular furnace filter collects mainly large, vs. the standard visible particles that reach the filter. Its main furnace filter purpose is to protect the furnace and air conditioner blower. The electronic air cleaner collects these large particles, plus many of the smaller, mostly invisible particles. Its purpose is to reduce indoor air pollution and to protect the blower, air conditioning coils and heat exchanger. 17 69-0419—2

The air cleaner Air ionizers have been marketed with claims vs. the air about purifying the air and promising medical ionizer benefits. It should be noted that supporting tests, if available, are controversial and incomplete. Air ionizers can generate a bit of ozone, and can generate some ions (bits of material carrying some electricity). This is what your electronic air cleaner's ionizer does, but with greater intensity; however, air ionizers do not have good collectors, if any. With air ionize
