grill of your air purifier draws in dirty air. Crane’s air purifier
HEPA filter removes at least 99.97% of all particles as small
as 0.3 microns. Microns are used to measure the size ofthese microscopic airborne particles.
Allergens such as pollen, smoke, animal dander, moldspores, and dust get trapped in the HEPA filter.
Level 3: Active Carbon Filter
The Active Carbon Filter (behind the HEPA filter) captures
particles as well as absorbs common household odors
caused from tobacco, pets, garbage and cooking.

CLEANING THE WASHABLE PARTICLE FILTER
1. Gently remove the particle filter.
2. Rinse the particle filter by hand using only warm water.
DO NOT place in dishwasher.
DO NOT use hard solvents or detergents.
