CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning
• Clean unit as necessary
by wiping with a dry, soft
cloth; for stubborn stains,
use a warm, damp cloth.
• Do not use volatile fluids
such as benzene, paint thinner, or
scouring powder, as they may damage
the unit surface. Keep the unit dry.
• Clean the wall behind the air outlet
periodically, as it may become dirty.
Filter Replacement
• The REPLACE FILTER INDICATOR will
signal when to replace the True HEPA
Filter. The replacement period will vary
depending on the hours of use, air
quality, and location of the unit. However,
most filters in normal use need to be
replaced annually.
• There are two separate filters:
HEPA filter and Carbon Filter.
• Change only True HEPA Filter when
REPLACE FILTER indicator is on.
• Push reset button on inside of unit
after changing filter.
• For best performance, change the
Carbon Filter every three months.
• Do not wash and reuse Carbon
Filter — it will not work effectively.
NOTE: For replacement filters, contact
your dealer or visit www.winixinc.com
WARNING:
Before replacing or cleaning
any filters, make sure to remove the
power plug from the wall outlet.
NOTE: Do not wash and reuse True
HEPA Filter and Carbon Filter.
