CLEAN FILTER LIGHT
- If the unit has not been regularly cleaned and an excessive amount of dirt has collected on the permanent ionic filter, the unit will shut down and the blue light will turn on. This light will turn on every 8 weeks to remind you to clean the filter. Simply clean the permanent ionic filter by following the “CLEANING & MAINTENANCE” section of this manual and when complete, press the ON/OFF and MODE buttons together to reset.
CLEANING THE IONIZER
- For maximum performance we recommend that you clean the ionizer each time you clean the Permanent Ionic Filter. Locate the Ionizing cleaning switch on the front grill of the Ionic Pro® Platinum.
- Push the rod towards the center of the grill. The rod will move about 0.5 inch forward before it will come to a stop. Release the rod. Repeat this 2 to 3 times.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
- If you hear excessive noise or static coming from your Ionic Pro® Platinum it generally indicates that the product needs to be cleaned. Turn off your Ionic Pro® Platinum, unplug the cord and carefully follow the cleaning instructions below.
- Keep the Ionic Pro® Platinum functioning properly by cleaning the permanent ionic filter and pre-filter after every 8 weeks of use as recommended. More frequent cleaning will be necessary if the unit is located in an area with a high level of airborne contaminants (excessive amounts of smoke, pet dander, etc.).
Exposing the Ionic Pro® Platinum to candle, oil lamp, fireplace soot, and smoke is not recommended and will require the collection blade assembly and pre-filter to be cleaned more frequently.
HELPFUL TIP: If your unit doesn’t work and the CLEAN FILTER light is on, it’s time to clean the filters.
