3 Before Turning On The Air Purifier Open the front cover and remove the air filter. Remove the plastic covering from the air filter. Gently tear off the perforated cardboard covering the HEPA side of the air filter cartridge. (It opens like a box of tissue.) Place the air filter (with the blue side facing out) back into the air purifier and reinstall the front cover. The Control Panel Power Off/On Ozone Off or Low/Medium/ High Fan Speed Air Flow Optional Timer Power Button This button turns the XJ-3000C HEPA & ionic air purifier ON. The ionizer and UV lamp are automatically engaged when the unit is in operation. Sanitizer/Ozone Button This button allows you to select the Off, Low, Medium, or High setting. Just hit the button until the LED light next to the desired setting is lit. When there are no LED lights lit next to the Sanitizer button, then the XJ-3000C will not produce ozone. On low, the XJ-3000C runs in intervals of 30 seconds On, and 3 minutes Off. On medium, the ozone generator runs in intervals of 3 minutes On, and 3 minutes Off. On the high setting, it runs continuously, which is beneficial in situations where strong odors or heavy pollution are present. Fan Speed/Air Flow There are three fan speed options: low, medium, and high. Optional Purifier Timer The timer can be set to 1, 2, or 4 hours. If none of these timer settings are selected, the XJ-3000C ionic air purifier will run continuously 24/7, which is generally best. If you are running the ozone on a high setting in a small area while you are gone, then you may want to use the timer so the ozone will dissipate to a natural background level before your return.

4 Replacing the Filter Cartridge Step # 1 - Open and check In an average residential setting you only need to change the filter once every one to two years. (If you use the! XJ-3000C in more heavily polluted environments, for instance a commercial setting, or near a busy highway, you will need to change it more often.) We recommend you perform the check described below every three months until you have a pretty good idea of the time a filter cartridge will last in your environment. Unplug the unit and open the front cover. Remove the filter cartidge and inspect both sides. If the white (HEPA) side of the filter cartridge is dark gray in color, you should change the filter cartridge. Proceed to the next step. $ TIP: Vaccuming the blue pre-filter monthly will maximize the life of the filter cartridge. Step # 2 - Replace the cartridge Remove the old filter and throw it away. Remove the wrapping from the new filter cartridge. Carefuly tear off the perforated cardboard covering the back side of the air filter cartridge. (It opens like a box of tissues.) This is the HEPA side of the filter cartridge. If needed, wipe the front cover grille and the case with a damp cloth. Place the new filter (with the blue side facing out) in its proper position. Step # 3 - Close the unit Put the front cover back on, plug in the unit and begin operating. That s it. No other filter maintenance is required. Replacing the UV Bulb Step #1 - Preparatory You should check that the bulb is operating periodically. You can do this by looking down through the top of the unit, through the fans. If you see a blue-ish glow, the bulb is still working. (You may need to do this in a room where the lights are dimmed.) NOTE: The bulb typically lasts months.!if you determine that the bulb is not working, proceed to step #2.

5 Step #2 - Remove old bulb Unplug the unit and open the front cover. Remove the air filter cartridge. The ends of the bulb are held in place by two very simple plastic clamps. Gently snap their covers open. (The one on the left snaps over to the left, the one on the right, to the right. It won t take much force to open them.) Remove the expired UV lamp. Handle the UV bulb on both ends in order to avoid breaking it. With clips closed With left clip open. Make sure that both clips are open before extracting bulb. Step #3 - Insert new bulb Press the new bulb into the UV bulb slot. The metal pins poking out each end of the bulb should be firmly in contact with the metal conductors inside each clamp. Close the plastic clamps over the bulb on each end. Step #4 - Finishing up Place the filter cartridge back in its compartment (with the blue side facing out) and put the front cover back on. The air purifier is now ready for operation again. Caution! Make sure that the air filter cartridge is in place before operating the XJ-3000C air purifier, or direct UV rays may escape through the front cover of the unit. Direct UV light can cause skin or eye damage. Placement Since the XJ-3000C HEPA & ionic air purifier uses a fan, and blows a strong current of air out the top of the unit, it is not necessary to place the unit at a high elevation. It can be placed on the floor, on a table, a countertop, or on a shelf. The back of the XJ-3000C should be at least 8 inches away from the wall to prevent discoloration of the the wall. Also, there should not be any obstructions above the air outlet on top of the XJ-3000C air purifier. There should be at least 2 feet of space between the top of the air purifier and any object or surface above it.

6 Keep the XJ-3000C at least 3 feet away from computers, televisions, and sensitive electrical equipment. If the unit it used in a bedroom, don t place it on a nightstand, near your head as you would not want your head in the pathway of dirty air being drawn into the purifier. The Six Air Purification Methods Anti-Bacterial Pre-filter The first stage (the blue filter) of the three-stage cartridge. Captures the largest particles, increasing the efficiency and longevity of the Carbon and HEPA filters. Activated Carbon Filter Specializes in capturing chemicals, gases, odors and pollutants such as tobacco smoke, which the HEPA filter cannot capture. HEPA Filter Removes 99.97% of particles (.3 microns in size) that pass through the filter, preventing them from becoming recirculated into the air. Largely considered the most effective type of small particle air filter. It captures a high volume of floating dust and other particles, including many of the ionized particles that would otherwise just stick to your walls if a typical ionizer were used. Unlike metal collection plates, they don t require complicated weekly cleaning rituals. Germicidal UV Light The UV (ultraviolet) bulb is located safely behind the fliters, where it kills germs trapped in the HEPA filter and in the air flowing through the unit. UV light destroys a large variety of microbial contaminates, such as viruses, germs, bacteria and fungi (including mold). UV light has been used for years by the medical field (including hospitals) to sanitize rooms and equipment, in order to prevent the spread of disease. Recommended by the Centers for Disease Control for its ability to destroy biological pollutants. Air Ionizer Negative ionization electostatically charges molecules which transfers their charge to other particles on contact. Charged particles clump with oppositely charged particles making them large and heavy enough to either be trapped in a filter or too heavy to remain suspended in the air. This is due to the fact that ions can circulate throughout a room. Negative ion circulation is enhanced as a result of the fan. Programmable Ozone Generator (Sanitizer Option) The ozone generator compliments the activated carbon filter in removing odors. It also has sanitizing properties. In the XJ-3000C, the ozone can be completely disabled if it is not needed or wanted,while still allowing the ionizer and filters to run at full power. Most other air purifiers that produce ozone produce it anytime the purifier is on. Under most circumstances you can leave the ozone generator in the off position. (Ozone s ability to break down organic compounds makes it nature s cleaning agent. You can actually see the effect ozone has on organic material. A common example: rubber bands exposed to the ozone that occurs in nature turn brittle over time. Like any strong cleaner, ozone should be used in moderation.)

7 For heavy deodorizing (such as to remove tobacco odors from clothing, fire and smoke restoration or to attack mold) set ozone to high, set the timer for an appropriate length of time, remove all pets, shut doors, windows and vents in the room/space you intend to treat (allowing the concentration of ozone to build up). Ozone purification is most effective in the smallest possible space. Stay out of the room until minutes after the unit has shut off. (Ozone breaks down naturally in about 30 minutes. If you must go into the room during this process, you won t be harmed, but don t linger in a space where high levels of ozone are present.) Set to low, in a well-ventilated area (or medium in a large space), you can use ozone to keep pet odors or cooking odors in check. Many people enjoy the fresh-air smell that is produced. At higher levels of concentration, ozone can take on an unpleasant, bleach-like odor. When the ozone generator is active, you may hear a slight hissing sound in addition to air movement when you are near the machine. IMPORTANT: If you have respiratory disease or might otherwise be sensitive to ozone consult your physician before using this feature. Troubleshooting Strange Smell From Unit The XJ-3000C air purifier may cause a subtle burning smell. This can be attributed to one of two things. First, the UV lamp produces only trace amounts of ozone, which may be detected in small, enclosed spaces. If the smell is bothersome, then you can remove the UV lamp from the machine. Doing so does not affect the other air purification methods. Secondly, the slight burning smell could be a result of harmless and nonflammable byproducts from the HEPA filter paper. After a period of continuous operation, the burning smell will go away completely. UV Lamp Not Working The UV lamp should illuminate while operating. Since it is safely located behind the filter, you can only see the blue glow by peering through the top air outlets into the interior of the air purifier. If the UV lamp is not glowing when on, and it has been in use for less than a year, then push on each end of the bulb to make sure it is tightly in the UV lamp holder.
