CAUTION

Do NOT operate the air cleaner during construction or

remodelling of a home. The air cleaner is designed for use in

normal living conditions to capture small particles. The

volume of dust and condensate in the presence of chlorides

and fluorides from paint, varnish, stains, adhesives, clean-

ing compounds, and cement creates a corrosive condition

which may cause rapid deterioration of the cabinet and

internal components of the air cleaner and the air handler/

furnace.

DISPLAY FEATURES (Figure 40)

The air cleaner display can be used for several functions:

• Provide the homeowner the operating status of the air

cleaner, including an indication the PRE-FILTER or

COLLECTION CELLS need cleaning.

• The installer accesses the Set-Up Mode to change the

time to clean settings for the PRE-FILTER and

COLLECTION CELLS as well as change the Power

Level setting.

• The unit will display fault codes for the homeowner

indicating there is a problem with the air cleaner and

various fault codes for the service technician to assist in

troubleshooting the problem.

Turn the air cleaner on by pushing the POWER button. The

backlit POWER and filter RESET buttons will illuminate

along with the first Green LED (G1) indicating 24 Volt power

is present to the air cleaner.

When the indoor fan is operating the first LED (G1) will

slowly flash. This indicates the FIELD CHARGER and

COLLECTION CELLS have power and the unit is operating

normally. There is a ten minute time delay between the

indoor fan starting and LED (G1) flashing.

In normal operation, the air cleaner makes a slight sound as

the air passes through it and is cleaned. In some

applications, you may notice this sound coming from the

return air vent(s). If desired, this sound level can be reduced

with minimal impact on air cleaning efficiency by reducing

the power setting of the FIELD CHARGER in the Set-Up

Mode.

NOTE: There is a 10 minute delay after the indoor fan

operates, before the air cleaner starts to operate, each

time the power to the air cleaner is turned off/on. This can

be bypassed by going into and then out of the Set-Up

mode.

G. SET-UP MODE

A combination of RED, YELLOW, and GREEN LED's are

used to indicate the following settings. See Figure 41.

• The three GREEN LED's are used to indicate PRE-FILTER

cleaning interval. This is measured in actual run time of the

indoor fan. The default setting is 2 months. See Figure 42.

• The four YELLOW LED's indicate the COLLECTION CELL

cleaning interval. This is measured in actual run time of the

indoor fan. The default setting is 6 months. See Figure 43.

• The three RED LED's indicate the power level setting. The

default is maximum. See Figure 44.

The current settings are then displayed. See Figure 40. If

this is the desired setting or at any time you want to exit the

RESET buttons for a minimum of 5 seconds to exit.
