Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and extend the life of your filter, regular maintenance is recommended:

• Prefilter Cleaning: Vacuum the prefilter monthly using the brush attachment of your vacuum cleaner. This helps remove larger dust and debris, preventing premature clogging of the HEPA-type filter.
• Filter Replacement: For optimal performance, replace the entire 3-in-1 filter every 12 months under normal usage conditions. The filter indicator light on your air purifier will typically signal when a replacement is needed.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your air purifier's performance after filter replacement, consider the following:

• Reduced Airflow: Ensure the filter is correctly seated and the compartment door is fully closed. Check if the filter indicator light has been reset.
• Persistent Odors: If odors persist after replacement, verify that the new filter is genuine HoMedics and installed correctly. Consider if the source of the odor is external to the air purifier.
• Filter Indicator Light Remains On: After replacing the filter, you must manually reset the filter indicator light on your air purifier. Refer to your air purifier's user manual for specific instructions on how to reset this light.
