PROBLEM
Unit will not turn on.
Reduced airflow or poor
filtering.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• Is the unit plugged in?
• Is the control knob turned on?
• The air intake or air outlet grille may be blocked. Make sure nothing is in front of or directly behind
the unit.
• The filter may be clogged. Clean the filter with a vacuum if needed.
• The permanent prefilter may be clogged. We recommend vacuuming the permanent
prefilter every 1–3 months, depending on usage conditions.
• Replace carbon filters every 90 days, or sooner, depending on usage. Remember to replace your
timestrip cartridge when doing so. See “How to Replace the Timestrip Cartridge” in the Parts and
Features section.

Filters should last up to 3 months, depending on use.
Always discard used filters. Timestrip cartridges are included with
new filters and should be replaced along with filters. Filters may be
purchased through www.hamiltonbeach.com or through Consumer
Affairs 1.800.851.8900.
Use only Hamilton Beach Brands, Inc., filters.
