Cleaning the Truman Cell®
Note: The Truman Cell® may require more frequent cleaning if
“arcing” occurs. Arcing is a sharp snapping sound that occurs
when large particles are collected in the Truman Cell®. If
prolonged or continuous arcing occurs, the Truman Cell
®
should
be cleaned.
1. Unplug the air purier.
2. Open the Cover by
gently pulling from
the top corners.
3. Remove the Truman
Cell
®
by unlocking top
and bottom knobs and
pulling straight out.
4. Separate the Truman
Cell® from the Wire
Assembly for easier
access to each during
cleaning.
Cleaning the Pre-Filter
1. Unplug the air purier.
2. Open the Cover by gently pulling from the top corners.
3. Pull the Pre-Filter straight out of the Cabinet.
4. Thoroughly rinse the Pre-Filter and let it air dry before
placing it back in the Cabinet. Do not use heated or
compressed air as part of the drying process.
5. Slide the Pre-Filter back into the unit.
6. Close the Cover securely.
9

5. Place each in sink, bathtub or other location where cleaner
can cover every surface.
6. Spray Oreck Assail-a-Cell® cleaner between each Cell Plate
and cover each surface. Allow the cleaner to soak for a few
minutes but do not let it dry. Thoroughly rinse the Truman
Cell® with clean water.
An alternative method to clean the Truman Cell® is to rinse
or soak it in warm water for loose debris. Mild liquid dish
detergent in water may also be used to help break down
tough dirt and residue. Thoroughly rinse the Truman Cell®
with clean water.
Note: To prevent damage to the components of the Truman
Cell®, do not put in dishwasher or use a cotton swab.
Tough residue such as tar from tobacco smoke may need
additional cleaning or longer soaking.
7. Shake excess water from the Truman Cell® to speed up
drying time. Do not use heated or compressed air to dry.
8. Reassemble the Wire Assembly and Truman Cell® by
inserting the (4) post located on the outside edges of the
Wire Assembly into the recessed channels of the Truman
Cell®. After guiding the post into the recessed channels,
slide the Wire Assembly until it locks into place.
9. Place the Truman Cell
®
back into the unit by sliding it straight
in and turning each knob to its locking position. The Truman
Cell® is specially designed so that it can only be inserted in
one direction.
10. Close the Cover securely.

Drying the Truman Cell®
Note: The Truman Cell® must be completely dry after cleaning
in order to operate properly. A drying mode is available to help
remove any residual moisture. While in this mode, the fan will
be running on Medium speed, and no power will be supplied to
the Truman Cell. Once the unit detects that the Truman Cell® is
completely dry, it will return to its original operating settings and
function as normal.
“Dry Mode” Operation
If the power supply detects that the Truman Cell® is wet, it shuts
down power to the cell and causes the Collector Cell light to blink
rapidly.
1. While the Collector Cell light is blinking, press and hold the
power button to initiate “Dry Mode”.
2. Next, the following will all happen simultaneously:
• The lights directly above and below the power button will
ash 3 times.
• The unit will switch to medium speed.
• The Collector Cell light will start to blink in a slow pattern.
3. Once in “Dry Mode”
• The unit will run for 60 minutes and then attempt to reset
the power supply to the Truman Cell®.
• If the power supply successfully restarts, the unit will
return to its original speed and run as normal.
• If not successful, it will go through the same process up
to two more times.
• If still not successful after the third try, the cell is likely
damaged or is shorting out due to the presence of a foreign
object; it will return to the original speed and the Collector
Cell light will blink with a rapid blink pattern indenitely
until the unit is reset.
