Routine Service and Cleaning
Attention: Before deciding on a location for your AM-80 Air
Purifier, carefully read all the operating instructions as well as
all the following information.
Regular maintenance of the unit will maintain its effectiveness.
BEFORE CLEANINGTHIS UNIT UNPLUG IT FROMTHE ELECTRICAL OUTLET!
1. Enclosure Cleaning
Clean the outside of the unit at least once a week with a damp paper towel moistened
with a common household detergent.
1. Do not place this unit in close proximity to electronic devices that are
sensitive to electrical fields.
Use a soft brush to clean (lengthwise) the carbon filament on the front of the outlet
grill. Make sure not to damage the carbon filament during the cleaning process.
2. Do not place this unit on metal shelving or on any electrical device.
The AM-80 Air Purifier may be placed on the floor, nightstand, table or desk
with its air outlet facing the user in order to allow proper air flow.
2. Cleaning the Area Around the Unit
Wipe the area around the unit once a week with a wet paper towel to remove any
accumulation of dust.
3. IN ORDERTO PREVENT DIRT BUILD-UP, IT IS RECOMMENDEDTO KEEP
THE UNITAT LEAST 1.5 FT.(45 CM) FROMANY NON-WASHABLE SURFACE.
3. Cleaning theWashable Filter
It is recommended to clean the pre-filter every 8 weeks.
The principle upon which the ionizer works is ionization.The process of ionizing
accelerates the fallout of pollutants from the air.These pollutants may adhere to
surrounding surfaces, causing a dark smudge.Therefore placement of the unit away
from ALL NON-WASHABLE SURFACES is a must!
To Clean the Pre-filter, Follow these Steps:
1. Face the air intake grill (back of unit).
2. Press and release the filter cover (fig. 2).
3. Detach the pre-filter foam sheet from the retaining “Velcro” strips (fig. 3).

rinse and air-dry thoroughly (do not place in automatic dryer).
The AM-80 Air Purifier may be operated all day and all night.The air-flow can be
regulated either by the power switch or by moving the AM-80 Air Purifier towards
or away from the user.
5. Re-attach the pre-filter sheet to the retaining “Velcro” strips (fig. 4).
6. Replace the filter cover, bottom edge first, and snap into place (fig. 5).
CONTROL AND INDICATOR LIGHTS (fig. I):

How the Air Purifier Works…
the air in 3 ways.
Pollutant-laden air entering the
air purifier is first pulled through
a washable high dust-holding
capacity foam pre-filter which
traps larger particles.

ions generated by the ionizer.
To maintain “like new”
performance, the filter is
easy to wash in soapy water.
This stage is of utmost importance
as it restores the natural balance
of the air. After the air is purified,
