Portable Air Cleaners
OWNER’S GUIDE

HOW YOUR PORTABLE AIR CLEANER WORKS
Your air cleaner is effective at removin
g
airborne particulates like dust mite aller
g
ens,
pollen, mold spores, bacteria, dust, soot, and tobacco smoke particles. It is also
effective at reducin
g
anno
y
in
g
odors like tobacco smoke, chemical odors, and odors
from cookin
g
, when e
q
uipped with a CPZ canister.
You can choose models with these filters
(
all have a carbon prefilter that helps reduce
odors and extend the HEPA filter life
)
:
•a 99.97% Hi
g
h-Efficienc
y
Particulate Air
(
HEPA
)
filter that provides hi
g
h-efficienc
y
removal of particulates.
•a HEPA filter that removes particulates and a CPZ™canister that removes volatile
or
g
anic compounds
(
VOC
)
and odor. This hi
g
h filtration and adsorption efficienc
y
enables the air cleaner to remove man
y
of the troublesome particles,
g
ases and
odors from the indooor air.
Your unit is one of these models:
F112A,C: 150 cfm, 120V, 60 Hz, 1.85A. Both models are two-speed. Model A has a
HEPA filter and model C has a HEPA filter with a CPZ™canister.
F113A,C: 300 cfm, 120V, 60 Hz, 1.5A. Both models are three-speed. Model A has a
HEPA filter, model C has a HEPA filter with a CPZ™canister.

OPERATING YOUR AIR CLEANER
IMPORTANT
If you have purchased an F112C or an F113C model, you will need to open
the air cleaner and remove the plastic packaging on the CPZ filter. To
reassemble the unit, follow the instructions in the Changing Your Filters sec-
tion.
Your air cleaner has a power cord that plu
g
s into a 120 Vac electrical outlet. Before
plu

g
y
our air cleaner, carefull
y

WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Can cause personal injury or equipment damage.
Do not use air cleaner with an
y
solid-state speed control device.
Keep forei

polarized outlet as desi
g
ned. Do not attempt to force the plu
g
into the outlet;
reverse the plu

MAINTAINING YOUR AIR CLEANER
CAUTION
Filter Washing Hazard.
Washing can damage prefilter, HEPA filter and CPZ canister.
Do not wash filters.
Replace filters accordin
g
to recommended schedule.
Determining When to Replace Your Filters
With proper maintenance,
y
our air cleaner is desi
g
ned to provide
y
ears of hi
g
h-
efficienc
y
air cleanin
g
. Your air cleaner contains up to three filters, dependin
g
on
model: a carbon prefilter, a HEPA filter and a CPZ canister on some models.
Replacing Your Prefilter Every Three Months (Quarterly)
The carbon prefilter captures lar
g
e airborne particles and helps reduce odors.
NOTE: Do not operate the air cleaner without the carbon prefilter.
IMPORTANT:
Replace the prefilter every three months. If the unit is used in a smoking or
other persisting unpleasant odor environment, consider purchasing a model
with a CPZ canister (F112C or F113C). See Table 1 to select filter part num-
bers.
Replacing Your Primary HEPA FIlter and CPZ Canister
The primar
y
HEPA filter and CPZ canister life expectanc
y
depends on the
concentration of contaminants in the environment where the air cleaner is installed. If
there are sources of lar
g
e amounts of particle
g
eneration
(
such as woodworkin
g
or
heav
y
smokin
g)
, the useful life of the prefilter and HEPA filter and CPZ canister ma
y
be
reduced.
Hone
y
well recommends chan
g
in
g
the HEPA filter and CPZ canister based on
operatin
g
conditions—ever
y
three
y
ears for li
g
ht usa
g
e, two
y
ears for normal usa
g
e
and one
y
ear for heav
y
usa
g
e. See Table 1 to select filter part numbers.
Whenever the combined air resistance of the carbon filter and the HEPA filter and CPZ
canister becomes excessive due to the amount of contaminants captured, the air
cleaner be
g
ins to audibl
y
pulsate. Instead of a stead
y
stream of air at the outlets, rapid
puffs of air can be felt.
When this occurs:
•The carbon prefilter ma
y
be clo
gg
ed and needs replacin
g
.
•The HEPA filter and CPZ canister need replacin
g
if the unit continues to pulsate
after replacin
g
the carbon prefilter.

IMPORTANT
Replace the HEPA filter and CPZ canister every one to three years, depend-
ing on the environment where the air cleaner is operating.

Determining What to Do When Your Air Cleaner Does Not
Operate
•Check to make sure the power cord is correctl
y
connected in the outlet.
•Test the outlet with another appliance or lamp.
•Check the fuse or circuit breaker; the circuit ma
y
be overloaded if other appliances
are also in use.
•Check to determine if the thermal overload protection device on the air cleaner
motor has en
g
a
g
ed to turn off the air cleaner. If it has, turn the air cleaner motor
control to Off and wait 30 to 45 minutes before plu
gg
in
g
it in and turnin
g
to On.
IMPORTANT
Do not attempt to repair the unit yourself.
•If none of the above procedures restores operation, call the authorized Hone
y
well
distributor where the unit was purchased for further information.
