PROPER GROUNDING Grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. Make sure the cord is plugged into a properly installed and grounded power outlet. To prevent electrical hazards, have a qualified electrician ensure that the line is properly wired. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. If an adaptor plug is used, it must be attached to the metal screw of the receptacle.
MOUNTING The CT168 can be mounted in three ways: TABLE TOP MOUNT: Using rubber feet and/or the flush mount flange brackets for a table-top application. HANGING MOUNT: Using the eye bolts for a high ceiling application. FLUSH MOUNT: Using the flange brackets for a wall or low ceiling application. WARNING Make sure the air cleaner is OFF and the cord is disconnected from the power source while installing, removing, servicing and performing any maintenance job.
Thread each of the provided M10 flange nuts approximately half way onto the provided eye bolts. Thread the eye bolts into the hole where plug screws were removed. See figure-6. When the air cleaner is supported by wood structural member: The minimum recommended eye bold size should be 5/16” -18” x 2”. Drill 1/4" pilot holes are recommended to help guide the eye bolts. Ensure the eye bolts penetrate at lease 40mm into the wood structure.
Place the flange bracket under the air cleaner lip at the mounting hole location and secure it using screws and washers provided as shown in figure-7. CONTROL PANEL The CT168 control panel allows you turn the air cleaner ON and OFF manually and set the fan speed. Install the other three flange brackets in the same manner. For permanent table top mounting, use the lower lip holes.
REMOTE CONTROLLER The CT168 is provided with a remote controller which enables the operator to operate the air cleaner from a far distance. The remote control works within 75 feet range from the air cleaner unit and uses two AAA batteries. See figure-9. TIME Button: Allows setting the auto shutoff time for the air cleaner in 1 hour, 2 hours, and 4 hours. FILTERS When to change the primary filter and when to service the secondary filter, depends upon the usage of the air cleaner.
CHANGING / SERVICING THE FILTERS Disconnect the unit from the power source. Move the retainer latch upward and remove the primary filter as shown in figure-10. Remove the secondary filter and wash it with warm water until it is clean. Let it dry. See figure-11.
