CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE ( Cont. )

Cleaning the Sensors

You'll Need: small Phillips jeweler's screw driver, glass cleaner, Q-Tip, lint-free, microfiber or unscented Swifter type cloth.

AFTER Unplugging the unit, remove the air purifier cover. You'll see a small grey faceplate on the upper left front of

the unit. Push down the tab and remove the plate. Inside, you'll see a small silver covered sensor box with a white ribbon

cable running from it. If there is not enough room to work with the sensor, gently pull the white cable another 1 or 2

inches from the hole it comes out of to give yourself some extra slack.

Before taking apart the sensor, use the cloth to completely wipe clean the chamber which houses the sensor and the

faceplate inside and out to prevent residual dust from falling back into the chamber after you finish cleaning the sensor.

Without disconnecting the white cable, use you your jeweler's Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the two small screws on

the top of the silver sensor cover and remove it.

Under the silver sensor cover you'll see a small circuit board on the back of which are two mounted sensor lenses.

Lightly dampen one end of a Q-tip with glass cleaner and use it to gently clean both sides of the two lenses. Then dry

both sides with the undampened end of the Q-tip.

To reassemble the sensor, simply reverse the process by a.) placing the circuit board back in its housing; b.) screwing the

silver cover back on; c.) reseating the sensor in the sensor chamber; d.) reinserting the two tabs at the bottom of the

faceplate into their slots and snapping it back into place; and e.) replacing the air purifier cover.

At this point you can resume using your air purifier normally.

will need to reestablish a 'clean air reference' using the procedures described on page 6 of this manual.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Clean Air Monitor

Why is there only one LED glowing all the time with the Clean Air Monitor function?

Indoor air has been clean the whole time.

The dust and irritant sensor could be too far away from any irritant for it to detect. Please move the unit closer

to your major sources of pollution.

Why does the Clean Air Monitor indicator always have two LED glowing?

Possibly because the room is not really a closed environment and pollution keeps coming in from the outside.

Or, because there has been pollution created indoors (e.g. smoking/pet boxes etc.) the whole time. It will

take some time for the Alive Air Purifier to achieve a clean environment under these conditions.

Why does the Clean Air Monitor function keep switching back and forth frequently?

Sometimes the dust and irritant sensor is affected by cell phone or other wireless equipment. When using

cell phone or other wireless equipment, please stay away from the unit.

Dust and Irritant Sensor

Why does the Dust and Irritant Sensor keep blinking?

In some locations the top of the sensor will accumulate more dust than in others Locations, This will decrease

the efficiency of the sensor. (Please refer to the section above on the cleaning of the sensor.)
