PRODUCT FEATURES MAIN FEATURES Dual True HEPA Air Filtration Both of the Revive's True HEPA filters capture 99.97% of particles 0.3µ and larger. The filter system has been optimized to quickly remove pollutants from the air. Efficient Double Suction System The Revive utilizes a dual-filter system, with filters in the front and in the rear. With two fans and two air inlets, the Revive cleans the air quickly and efficiently.
EVAPORATIVE HUMIDIFICATION Humidification Method The humidifying method used in the Revive is the Evaporative Humidification method. This method uses three parts: water tank, water tray and wick filter. The water tank supplies water to the water tray as the wick filter absorbs water. Air is drawn into the Revive and passes through the wick filter humidifying the air and expelling it back into the room. Dry air Humid air The expelled air temperature may feel cooler than the current room temperature.

PREPARING FOR FIRST USE INSTALLING THE FILTERS Be sure to remove the plastic wrapping from the filters in the front and back of the Revive before turning it on. This product is for indoor use only. When the unit is not in use, unplug it from the electrical outlet. 1. Remove the Front Cover by pulling the top of the cover towards you. Lift up to disengage the bottom hinges. 2. Remove the Mesh Pre-Filter by pressing down on the two tabs at the top of the filter, then pull the filter out of the machine.
PREPARING THE HUMIDIFIER I f you do not want to use the Humidifier function, do not perform the steps below. Instead, remove the Humidifier Filter and store it in a cool, dry location. If the Water Tank or Water Tray are not properly seated, the Revive will not power on. 1. Remove the Water Tank by pulling the handle up. Then move the tank away from the machine. 2.

PRODUCT OPERATION POWERING THE REVIVE ON 1. To power the Revive on, press the Power Button. The Operating Mode and Fan Speed setting will automatically resume with the settings from when the unit was previously powered on. NOTE: I f the Revive was previously in Auto Mode, it will begin sensing the air quality in the room when powered on. During this time, the Fan Speed will be set to 2, and the Air Quality Indicator will show Violet.
OPERATING MODES (cont.) Allergen Mode Allergen Mode is a three-step process by which the Revive’s fan speed is maximized and then throttled-down over a period of time in order to purify a large amount of air in the least amount of time.
PRODUCT OPERATION (cont.) AUTOMATIC HUMIDITY CONTROL (cont.) 2. When the Revive is actively evaluating the air quality and humidity levels, the “AIR” and “HUM” indicators will be illuminated. This is also an indication that the Water Tank has a sufficient amount of water for the humidifier to function. 3. When the Water Tank is empty, or no longer contains a sufficient amount of water, the Revive will stop Humidifying. In this instance, only the “AIR” indicator will be illuminated.
ADJUSTING THE SEASONAL ALLERGY SETTING During “allergy season”, or periods when pollen and other allergens are more prevalent in your area, you may opt to increase the sensitivity of the Air Quality Sensor so that the Revive increases the fan speed more frequently in Auto or Eco Mode. Conversely, if you live in an area where allergens are not common, you can decrease the sensitivity of the air quality sensor so that the Revive stays at a low fan speed more often in Auto or Eco Mode.
FILTER CHANGE INDICATOR FILTER CHANGE INDICATOR When the filter replacement cycle has been reached for one or more of the filters, the Filter Change Indicator becomes illuminated. A light will come on next to the name of the filter (or filters) that needs to be replaced. 1. Follow the steps on page 24 to replace the affected filter(s). 2. Once that process is complete, press the Filter Reset Button for two seconds to reset the Filter Change Indicator. 3.
