IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
19. Do not use detergent to clean
the unit.
Polarized plug
This appliance has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully
into the outlet, reverse the plug and
reinsert. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not modify the
plug in any way.
20. Do not wash and reuse the HEPA
filter or the High Deodorization Anti-
Odor Carbon Filter (ELAP40) or the
Carbon Pre-Filter (ELAP15 and
ELAP30). These filters are
non-washable.
21. Hold the handle on the back of the
unit to transport. Do not hold by the
front panel.

cord as a safety precaution to prevent personal injury or property damage
resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with a longer cord. Do
not allow children to use or be near this appliance without close adult
supervision. If an extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the
cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance, and (2) the cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over
the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
