WARNING
Unplug the power cord before servicing or replacing filters. Failure
to do so could result in serious personal injury and death.
I. Important Safety Instructions
Read the Owner's Manual and Important Safety Instructions carefully. Failure to
follow these instructions could cause a malfunction of the filter or unsatisfactory
performance. Follow a regular service and maintenance schedule for efficient
operation.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fires, and/or injury:
• Do not use the air purifier in wet or damp locations
• Do not use outdoors
• Do not use at ambient temperature of above 95°F/35°C
• Do not use fabrics or other material to cover the inlet and outlet of the unit
• Do not allow children to operate or play with the unit
For safety reasons and to prevent electric shock, unplug the power cord from the
electric outlet socket under the following conditions:
• When not in use for a long period of time
• When cleaning, servicing the machine or during replacement of filters
• When moving the air purifier
To prevent electric shock, do not dismantle, repair or modify this product.
Maintenance and cleaning instructions should be followed exactly as directed in
this manual. In case of malfunction, please contact an authorized distributor or
Healthy Air Inc. for service instructions.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, the equipment has a grounding type plug
that has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding type power
outlet. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, contact qualified personnel to install
the proper outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not pull the cord to remove the plug from
its outlets. Protect the cord against heat, oil and sharp objects. Do not run any
appliance over the cord. Do not pull or carry by the cord, use cord as a handle,
close a door on the cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners.

VII. Operation Guidelines
7.1 Source Capture System Positioning
Place the HealthyAir® Source Capture Aerosol Extractor in the desired
location and adjust the Flex Hose to position the Hood approximately 6”
from the source.
7.2 Source Capture System Activation
7.2.1 Plug the Power Cord into the Power Socket, located on the
bottom of the side panel of the unit, and then plug the other end of
the cord into a wall power socket.
Once plugged in, the Power indicator light [ ] will turn on and
display a red light.
7.2.2 Activate the unit by pressing the Power button located on the
Control Panel, shown in Fig. 6, or on the Remote Control.
Once the unit is powered, the motor will start with the Fan Speed
set to the Mid-Speed and the eHEPA® indicator will light up and
display a green light, which indicates that the eHEPA® system is
activate.
7.3 Source Capture System Controls
Each of the respective control elements shown on the Control Panel
Display in Fig. 5 work as follows:
• SPEED button on the Control Panel or Remote Control adjusts the
volume of airflow being taken in through the hood. Airflow speed
can be adjusted to one of three settings: Low – Mid – High Speed.
• eHEPA button turns the eGrid on and off. When the eGrid is
powered the symbol above the eHEPA button, as well as the eGrid
Active light, will turn green. Pressing the eHEPA button once more
will shut off the eGrid and turn off the indicator light.

VII. Operation Guidelines
7.3 Source Capture System Controls
• TIMER button is for operation of the timing clock. When this feature is
in use the unit will automatically shut off after the set time expires. The
system's default timing is 4 hours of operation.
To set the timer manually, press the TIMER button once for every hour
you wish to run the machine (i.e. press TIMER once for 1-hour of run
time, press TIMER twice for 2-hours of run time, press TIMER three
times for 3-hours of run time, and press TIMER four times for 4-hours
of run time).
If the TIMER button is pressed five (5) times, such that it passes
through the complete timing schedule, it will run continuously until the
unit is manually turned off.
• LIGHT button turns the Hood LED Light on and off. When the LED
Light is on the symbol above the button turns green. Pressing the
LIGHT button once more will turn off the LED Light as well as the
indicator light.
• eGrid Active indicator light indicates the status of the eHEPA® and
eGrid system. When the eGrid Active indicator light is green, while the
eHEPA button is on, the eGrid is functioning properly. If the eGrid
Active indicator light is off, while the eHEPA button is on, it signals that
the eGrid is malfunctioning and the unit requires service.
