IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTR CTIONS
CORD SAFETY

selected to reduce tangling or tripping hazards.
• If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension
cord may be used. The electrical rating of the
extension cord must be equal to or greater than the

GET TO KNOW YO R AIR CLEANER
Your true HEPA air cleaner removes up to 99.97% of
airborne allergens as small as 0.3 microns, such as
ragweed pollen, grass pollen, tree pollen, household dust,
dust mite debris, mold spores, pet dander and smoke
from the air passing through the filter.
TR E HEPA FILTER
HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are
designed to remove up to 99.97% of airborne pollutants
at 0.3 microns or larger, from the air that passes through
them. These include tobacco smoke, household dust, pet
dander, and pollen.
HIGH, MEDI M, LOW AND SLEEP SPEED
SETTINGS
For optimum air filtration, operate your Holmes®air
cleaner continuously on the MEDIUM (3) setting. For
quieter operation (such as in a bedroom), select LOW (2)
or SLEEP (1) setting. When high levels of allergens are
present, select the HIGH (4) setting.
FILTER LIFE MONITOR
The Filter Life Monitor uses a series of lights to give you
an indication of the remaining filter life. When the filters
are new and in good condition, the top light will be
illuminated green. As the filter life progresses, the Filter
Life Monitor will move to yellow. At this point, the carbon
and HEPA filters should be checked. When the Filter Life
Monitor light is red, it is time to change the filters.

3. Open the front grill door of the air purifier by gently
pulling it forward.
4. The carbon filters, which are packed in a plastic bag in
