For Model 1606X Series Air Cleaner The Science of Clean Air®
Important Safety Instructions
PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
USING THIS AIR CLEANER.
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock
and injury to persons including the following:
1. |
Read all instructions before operating
the air cleaner.
|
2. |
Place air cleaner where it is not
easily knocked over by persons in the household.
|
3. |
Always
turn the air cleaner to the OFF (O) position and unplug when not in use.
|
4. |
To
disconnect the air cleaner, first turn the air cleaner to OFF
(O) position, grip the plug and pull it from the outlet. Never pull by the
cord.
|
5. |
Do not use any product with a damaged
cord or plug or if product malfunctions, is dropped or damaged in any
manner. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
|
6. |
Do not use air cleaner outdoors.
|
7. |
Never use air cleaner unless it
is fully assembled.
|
8. |
Do not run power cord under carpets,
and do not cover with throw rugs. Arrange cord such that it will not
be tripped over.
|
9. |
Do not use air cleaner where combustible
gases or vapors are present.
|
10. |
Do not expose the air cleaner to
rain, or use near water, in a bathroom, laundry area or other damp location.
|
11. |
The air cleaner must be used in
its upright position.
|
12. |
Do not allow foreign objects to
enter ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause electric shock
or damage to the air cleaner. Do not block air outlets or intakes.
|
13. |
Locate air cleaner near power outlet
and avoid using an extension cord.
|
14. |
This
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce risk of shock, this plug
is intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt
to defeat this safety feature.
|
15. |
A loose fit between the plug and
the AC outlet (receptacle) may cause overheating and a distortion of
the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.
|
16. |
Do not sit, stand or place heavy
objects on the air cleaner.
|
17. |
Disconnect power supply before servicing.
|
WARNING: To reduce risk of fire or electric shock,
do not use this product with any solid-state speed control device.
Congratulations
You now own a quality portable air cleaner that has
been engineered and crafted for your satisfaction.
Our Consumer Relations representatives will be pleased
to help with any questions or concerns you may have about your air cleaner.
Please call our Consumer Relations Dept. at (800) 332-1110 for assistance
or email us at service@honeywell.com.
For Best Performance
We recommend that you operate your air cleaner 24
hours a day because indoor air can be quickly contaminated by activity
in a room, infiltration of outside air and from sources of contamination.
While
all the air in a room will not be processed by the air cleaner, the more
air circulated through the filter, the more filtered air returned to
the room. Portable air cleaners will be much more effective in
rooms where all doors and windows are closed.
Place the air cleaner on a flat, level unobstructed
surface. For best performance, the air outlet slot should not be blocked
for at least 3 feet (1 meter) in all directions.
NOTE: Due to the large
volume of air drawn towards the air cleaner, surrounding areas should be
cleaned and/or vacuumed frequently to prevent buildup. If the unit is placed
on a light colored carpeting, a small mat or rug should be used to ease cleaning
and prevent any permanent staining. This is particularly important in homes
with heavy contamination from smoking or fireplaces.

Operation
The Honeywell 1606X Series air cleaner is a three
speed air cleaner operated by moving the speed control knob on the top panel
from the OFF (O)
position to the HIGH (III) position. Allow the unit to operate for a few
minutes at HIGH speed, then leave the control knob in the HIGH position for
faster, more powerful room cleaning, or move the knob to the lower (I) setting
for quieter operation.

Replacement filters may be purchased from the retail
store or ordered from the dealer where you purchased the product. If you
cannot locate one, please call our Consumer Relations Dept. at (800) 332-1110,
email us at: service@honeywell.com or visit our website at www.honeywell.com/yourhome.
Filter Replacement
Replace filter cartridge once every 6-9 months or
sooner depending on usage. Use Filter-Change Calendar to keep track of your
filter replacement schedule.
NOTE: Filter is not washable and washing will damage
the filter.
Our recommendations regarding filter replacement
intervals are intended as guidelines only. Life expectancy of any filter
media is dependent on the concentration of the contaminants to which the
system is exposed. If there are sources of large amounts of contaminant generation
(such as dust from woodworking or heavy smoking) the useful life of the filter
media in your air cleaner may be reduced.
CAUTION: TURN OFF THE AIR CLEANER AND DISCONNECT
FROM POWER SUPPLY BEFORE SERVICING
The only part requiring any service is the filter
cartridge. No tools are needed to change the filter. Change filter as shown
here.
Step 1: Turn the Air Cleaner OFF
(O) and unplug from the wall outlet
Step 2: Open filter replacement door on bottom of
air cleaner by pushing in tabs and swinging door open (Fig. 1).
Step 3: Remove old filter by pulling the filter at the finger
recesses inside filter door (Fig. 2). Slide out filter and remove.
Step 4: Discard old filter and remove packaging from
new filter.
Step 5: Slide new filter into air cleaner in direction
of the arrows. Make sure that black side faces the front of the air cleaner.
Step 6: Close and secure filter replacement door
(Fig. 2). Step 7: Return air cleaner to operable position and plug in.
Step 8: Roll the Filter Replacement Reminder ahead
6-9 months (Fig. 3).
