Installation Requirements

Location Requirements:

• Select a location where the air intake and filtered air outlet
are not obstructed.
• Place the air purifier on a flat, level surface at least two feet
from any heat source, such as ranges or heaters.
• Do not block the air openings or place the air purifier on a
soft surface such as a bed, chair or sofa.
• Operate indoors only.

Electrical Connection:

• Plug the air purifier into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully in 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.

Features and Functions

This Filtrete™ Air Purifier from 3M comes complete with the
latest advances in air filtration technology in a stylish and
trendsetting design.
Filtration:
Filtrete replacement filters use proprietary technology to
provide high filtration efficiency and low airflow resistance.
When combined with the specially developed fan and
housing, the end result is a highly efficient air purifier that
operates quietly.
This Filtrete filter has electrostatically charged fibers that
can capture particles as small as 0.1 micron. The
electrostatically charged fibers are most effective when the
filter is new and clean. As particles build up on the filter ,
they begin to cover up the charged fibers. This will reduce
the effectiveness of the filter at capturing additional
particles and can occur early in the filter's life. The time
frame and extent of the reduction will depend upon the
actual use conditions in the room in your home.
To maximize the air cleaning in the room that contains the
air purifier , we recommend that you clean and seal, as
much as possible, the room in which the air purifier
operates; continue to dust surfaces and vacuum on a
normal schedule; and close all windows and doors
during operation.

Electrostatic Enhancement:

This air purifier produces negative ions, which charge
particles in the air and improve small particle filtration. The
charged particles are captured from the air passing through
the filter . This unit emits a very small amount of ozone but
has been certified to produce significantly less than
allowable limits by strict Underwriter's Laboratory (UL)
standards and all other applicable safety standards.
