Installation and Set-up
Choosing the Location
Your Air Purifier can be placed directly against a wall. The housing design
ensures proper clearance between the Air Purifier and the wall to allow full
circulation of purified air. The Air Purifier can also be placed in the center of a
room, or in a corner, with no change in effectiveness.
For maximum effectiveness, use the Air Purifier in a room that’s 390 ft2(36 m2)
or less. For larger rooms, multiple Air Purifiers should be used.
Important: Do not locate the Air Purifier in front of a heating vent. Also, make sure the location
you select will allow the cord to easily reach a wall outlet. The cord is 10 feet (3.05
meters) long.
Preparing the Filters for Operation
The ATMOSPHERE™ Air Purifier uses three filters–pre-filter, HEPA filter, and
odor filter. The HEPA and odor filters are shipped in plastic bags to minimize
the spread of carbon dust. Prior to using the Air Purifier, the plastic bags must be
removed and the filters properly re-installed.
Removing the Filters
1. To access the filters remove the front cover from the Air Purifier using the
finger tabs located on each side of the Air Purifier–near the top (Fig. 2).
Steady the Air Purifier by first placing your thumbs on the outside edges of
the front display label. Remove the front cover by gently pulling on the tabs
with your fingers. Then, pull off the bottom of the cover.
2. The Pre-filter is attached to the outside of the HEPA Filter. Remove the
combined Pre- and HEPA Filters by squeezing the two tabs located on either
side of the HEPA filter frame (near the top) until they unlatch (Fig. 3a).
3. Swing the filters out and away from the housing (Fig. 3).

4. Pull on the center tab to remove the Pre-filter from the HEPA filter (Fig. 4).
5. Remove the Odor Filter by pulling straight out (Fig. 5).
Installing the Filters
1. Remove the odor filter from its plastic bag (Fig. 6).
Note: Carbon dust from the odor filter may stick to the bag during shipping. When handling
the odor filter and its packaging, be very careful that carbon dust does not stain
your clothes, furniture, or carpet.
2. Carefully replace the filter all the way back inside the Air Purifier (Fig. 7).

Operating Instructions
Getting Power
Unwrap the power cord and insert the plug into a wall outlet. Wrap any excess
cord around the cord spool on the bottom of the Air Purifier. The cord spool also
has molded clamps to route the cord as needed (Fig. 12).
The Operating Modes
Your Air Purifier has four modes of operation, controlled by five buttons on the
control panel. Two modes provide continuous operation, and two provide timed
periods of operation. The four modes are described in Operating Modes table; the
functions of the five buttons are summarized in Control Panel Functions table.
OPERATING MODES TABLE
NOTE: For maximum air cleaning effectiveness, continuous operation is recommended.
A timed operation is selected when you want the Air Purifier to operate for a
set amount of time at a specified speed.

CONTINUOUS OPERATION
MANUAL
Mode
Provides continuous operation until you turn Air Purifier off
or change to another mode. Fan speed remains the same
until you change it manually.
AUTO
Mode
Provides continuous operation until you turn Air Purifier off
or change to another mode. Fan speed automatically changes
in response to input from the Particle Sensor: the dirtier the
air, the higher the fan speed.

Control Panel
The five control buttons on your Air Purifier control panel (Fig. 13) enable you
to select the desired mode of operation and to manually change fan speed and
timer setting. The result of a button-press depends in part on whether the Air
Purifier is already operating, as well as, the mode it is currently in. A complete
summary of functions and responses as each button is pressed are listed in
Control Panel Functions table.
Control Panel Button Functions
Button Functions: When you press any of the control panel buttons, the Air
Purifier will beep to let you know that an action was taken. When the POWER,
AUTO, or TURBO buttons are activated, they also light up; for the SPEED and
TIMER functions, their setting-level displays light up instead.
1. Timer: Programs the Air Purifier to operate for a pre-determined time ranging
from ½ hour to 12 hours. Repeated pressing of the TIMER button while
the Air Purifier is operating changes the timer setting, one step at a time,
to the next setting in the sequence: ½ hr., 2 hrs., 4 hrs., 8 hrs., 12 hrs.,
OFF, ½ hr…. The timer setting you select is shown by the number of lighted
indicators in the timer display. While the timer is operating, the number
of lighted indicators decreases to reflect the time remaining before the Air
Purifier shuts off.
2. Speed: Selects one of the five operating speeds of the Air Purifier. Repeated
pressing of the SPEED button while Air Purifier is operating changes the fan
speed, one step at a time, to the next speed in sequence (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 1…).
The fan speed at which the Air Purifier is operating is shown by the number
of lighted indicators in the speed display.
3. Turbo: Provides a burst of cleaning power. Air purifier operates at highest
speed (setting 5) for 30 minutes, then turns off or returns to the previous
mode and speed.
4. Auto: Provides continuous operation until you turn the Air Purifier off or
change to another mode. Fan speed automatically changes in response to
input from the Particle Sensor: the dirtier the air, the faster the fan runs.
5. Power: Turns the Air Purifier on and off.
