Maintenance Features
The Ionic Pro Elite TA740 is designed for easy and regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance:
- Permanent Ionic Filter:
- Never Needs Replacing: This is a significant advantage, as it eliminates the recurring cost and hassle of purchasing replacement filters.
- Dishwasher Safe: The permanent ionic filter can be cleaned in a dishwasher, simplifying the cleaning process.
- Handwash Option: Alternatively, it can be hand-washed in warm, soapy water. For excessive dirt or grease, a soft bristle brush and household degreaser can be used.
- Drying Requirement: It is crucial to ensure the permanent ionic filter is thoroughly dry before re-inserting it into the purifier to prevent damage and ensure proper function. If a wet part is inserted, the fan will not turn on, and the CLEAN FILTER light will illuminate.
- Pre-Filter:
- Attached to the back of the permanent ionic filter: This filter traps larger particles like hair and lint.
- Cleaning Options: Can be hand-washed in cold water or vacuumed.
- Drying Requirement: Must be absolutely dry before re-insertion.
- Ionizer Cleaning: The ionizing cleaning switch, a rod on the front grill, should be pushed 2-3 times each time the permanent ionic filter is cleaned to maintain maximum performance.
- External Surfaces Cleaning: The outer case surfaces can be wiped with a moist washcloth and a little dishwashing soap. Care must be taken to prevent water from entering internal parts.
- Cleaning Frequency: Recommended cleaning of the permanent ionic filter and pre-filter every 8 weeks. More frequent cleaning may be necessary in environments with high levels of airborne contaminants (e.g., smoke, pet dander).
- Troubleshooting: The manual provides a troubleshooting guide for common issues such as the unit not turning on, the CLEAN FILTER light being on, the fan being off, or excessive noise. Most solutions involve checking connections, ensuring filters are properly seated, or cleaning and drying the filters.
