Alive Air Purifier - Written instructions:
Seven short “Instructional Videos” are available by clicking here:
#1 SETTING THE AUTO SENSOR:
Only if possible, air out the room for several hours with fresh air. Then close the windows. Only if you want to use the AUTO Setting, plug in the Purifier where you want it to go in your room and immediately run it on HIGH with the UV light ON for 3 hours. Then come back and unplug the unit for 10 seconds, plug it back in and immediately turn it to AUTO. This will program the unit for a ‘REFERENCE FOR CLEAN AIR’; however, every time you remove the faceplate to clean the 2 pre-filters (which you have to do ONCE every month), every time there is a power outage, if you unplug the unit for any reason, or power the unit off (though it’s made to run 24/7 summer/winter and uses very little electricity), you will have to re-program a ‘reference for clean air’ again (as above). Actually, I can’t be bothered to do that so I just run my machine on HIGH or MEDIUM and forget about it. A couple of hours before I go to sleep, I unplug the unit, put it in my bedroom, turn it to HIGH and then when I go to bed, I just turn it to QUIET. At 20 db, you can sleep soundly with it. In the morning, I reverse the process.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please do not use the following products: Any Plug-ins such as Glad or Airwick Plug-ins, Febreeze, Oust, smelly candles. These toxic sprays will interfere with the sensors and can also clog the HEPA filter rendering it useless in less than an hour. The chemicals they emit, may also contribute to asthma and allergies.
#2 WASHING THE FILTERS:
Every month wash the two pre-filters (black screen & electrostatic grid). They are accessed easily by pushing both buttons on the side of the front cover or ‘faceplate’. Put the 2 pre-filters in a tub. Put a dollop of dish detergent in the tub below the faucet and fill to cover with warm water. Let them soak for a good 30 min. Rinse the two pre-filters AND the faceplate with the showerhead. Then let everything Completely AIR DRY ONLY before re-installing.
#3 CHECKING THE HEPA, CARBON FILTERS and UV BULB:
The HEPA/Activated Carbon filter lasts 6-12 months under normal conditions (less in very poor air conditions and a lot less with smokers). The UV Bulb will last 8-12 months. Your machine will show a red blinking light after 9 months of use, to remind you in case you’ve forgotten to clean the 2 pre-filters; however, these should be cleaned ONCE EVERY MONTH (see the video page on how to reset the Red light). When comparing the White Hepa filter with a white piece of paper, if the Hepa looks a little brownish or greyish, please replace the filter. Your health is worth more than the small cost of a filter.
Note: Filters will also need to be changed a lot more often if there is a smoker in your household.
IT’S THAT EASY!
