The Science of Clean Air™
Congratulations...
You now own a quality portable HEPA air cleaner that has been engineered and
crafted for your satisfaction.
Honeywell air cleaners incorporate a true HEPA filter. HEPA is an acronym for High
Efficiency Particulate Air.
Our Consumer Relations representatives will be pleased to help with any questions or
concerns you may have about your Honeywell air cleaner. Please call our Consumer
Relations Dept. at (800) 332-1110 for assistance.
For Best Performance...
We recommend that you operate your Honeywell air cleaner 24 hours a day
because indoor air can be quickly contaminated by activity in a room, infiltration
of outside air, and generation by sources of contamination. While all the air in a
room will not be processed by the air cleaner, the more air circulated through the
filter, the more filtered air returned to the room. Portable air cleaners will be much
more effective in rooms where all doors and windows are closed.
The Honeywell HEPA air cleaner is ready to begin cleaning air as soon as it is
removed from the carton and plugged in. Because it circulates air in a 360
degree pattern around the air cleaner, it can be placed on the floor in almost any
location. However, for best performance the air outlet slot should not be blocked
for at least 1 meter (three feet) in all directions.
Due to the large volume of air drawn towards the air cleaner, surrounding areas
should be cleaned and/or vacuumed frequently to prevent buildup. This may help
keep your home cleaner and may extend the life of your pre-filter. If the unit is
placed on light colored carpeting, a small mat or rug should be used to ease
cleaning and prevent any permanent staining. This is particularly important in
homes with heavier contamination from smoking or fireplaces.
10500 Series...
The Honeywell 10500 Series air cleaner is a
2 speed air cleaner. As a safety feature, when
the filter cage cover is removed, the switch will
automatically be placed in the off position. The
unit cannot be turned on with the filter cage
cover removed.
To Unlock:
Rotate the filter cage cover
To operate the unit, turn the round switch to
counterclockwise until it stops and lift cover.

To Lock:
Place the filter cage cover and rotate until it falls
into place. Rotate clockwise until it stops.
11500 Series...
The Honeywell 11500 Series air cleaner is a 2
speed air cleaner operated by moving the
speed control knob on the base from the Off
("0") position to the high ("2") position. Allow the
unit to operate for a few seconds at high speed,
then leave the control knob in the high position
for faster, powerful room cleaning, or move the
knob to the lower setting for quieter operation.

12500 Series...
The Honeywell 12500 Series air cleaner is a 3
speed air cleaner operated by moving the
speed control knob in the base from the Off ("0")
position to the high ("3") position. Allow the unit
to operate for a few seconds at high speed, then
leave the control knob in the high position for
faster, powerful room cleaning, or move the knob
to a lower setting for quieter operation.

Construction...
Your Honeywell air cleaner has four
basic components: the filter cage cover,
the HEPA filter, the activated carbon
pre-filter, and the base assembly (with
controls and motor).

Replacement filters may be purchased from the retail store or ordered from the dealer
where you purchased the product. If you cannot locate one in your area, please call

dealer.
Filter Replacement...
With proper maintenance, your Honeywell air cleaner is designed to provide years of
high efficiency air cleaning.Your Honeywell air cleaner contains two filters: one activated
carbon pre-filter and one primary HEPA filter.
The activated carbon pre-filter captures large airborne particles, and helps remove
odors. The pre-filter should be replaced every 3 months.You may need to replace the
pre-filter more often if the unit is used in a smoking environment or if unpleasant
odors persist.
The primary HEPA filter should remain effective for 1 to 3 years, depending upon the
environment in which the air cleaner is operating. Honeywell recommends changing
the HEPA filter based upon operation conditions–every 3 years for light usage, 2 years
for normal usage and 1 year for heavy usage.
Our recommendations regarding filter replacement intervals are intended as guidelines
only. Life expectancy of any filter media is dependent on the concentration of the
contaminants to which the system is exposed. If there are sources of large amounts of
contaminant generation (such as woodworking or heavy smoking) the useful life of the
filter media in your air cleaner may be reduced.
Whenever the combined air resistance of the activated carbon pre-filter and primary
HEPA filter becomes excessive due to the amount of contaminants they have captured,
the air cleaner will begin to audibly pulsate. Instead of a steady stream of air, rapid
"puffs" of air may be felt at the outlet slot. When this occurs, one of two conditions exists:
1. The activated carbon pre-filter is clogged and must be replaced.
2. If the unit continues to pulsate after a new pre-filter is installed,
the useful life of the HEPA filter has been reached and it must be replaced.
Important...
Replace the activated carbon pre-filter at least every 3 months.The activated
carbon pre-filter is the element of your air cleaner that helps reduce normal
household odors, captures lint and other large particles and protects and helps
extend the life of the HEPA filter.
If there are heavy concentrations of odors, smoke, or large particles in the home, you
may need to change the activated carbon pre-filter more often.
We DO NOT recommend operating the air cleaner without the activated carbon pre-filter.
The HEPA filter may become contaminated and begin to emit any odors captured.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to wash either the activated carbon pre-filter or the
HEPA filter.They are not washable and washing will damage the filters.
How to Change the Filters...
CAUTION: DISCONNECT FROM POWER SUPPLY BEFORE SERVICING
The only two parts requiring any service are the activated carbon
pre-filter and the HEPA filter. No tools are needed. To change either
filter, disassemble the unit as shown.
1. Loosen the carrying handle by turning it counterclockwise and lift
filter cage cover from unit.
For Model Series 10500: With the unit on a carpeted floor, twist the
air cleaner filter cage cover counterclockwise until it stops (about 90°),
and lift the cover from the base.
2. Lift HEPA filter and activated carbon pre-filter from the base.
3. Remove the fasteners from the activated carbon pre-filter and remove
Model Series 10500
it from the HEPA filter cartridge.
4. Replace filter(s) as needed, and discard used filters.
5. Wrap the activated carbon pre-filter around the HEPA filter
cartridge and secure it with the fasteners provided.
Reassemble your Honeywell air cleaner as described below:
1. Place the assembled HEPA filter and the activated carbon pre-filter
on the base.
2. Replace the filter cage cover.
3. Reattach the carrying handle and turn it clockwise until securely
tightened.
For Model Series 10500: Position the filter cage cover on the unit.
Press down on filter cage cover and rotate clockwise until it snaps
securely into place. Place the power control switch in the OFF position.
If the Air Cleaner Does Not Operate...
•
•
•
Check to make sure that the power cord is correctly connected to the outlet.
Test that the outlet is functioning properly using another appliance or lamp.
Check the fuse or circuit breaker. The outlet may be overloaded if other appliances
are also in use. Determine and correct the cause of the overload.
•
•
The thermal overload protection device on the air cleaner's motor may have engaged.
If none of the above procedures restore operation, return your unit to the store or if the
store's return policy does not allow, return the complete unit per the instructions in the
warranty section of this owner's guide. Do not attempt to repair the unit yourself.
Storage...
If you store your Honeywell HEPA air cleaner for more than 30 days,
we recommend:
•
•
•
Remove both the primary HEPA filter and the activated carbon pre-filter from the unit.
Discard the pre-filter.
Wrap the HEPA filter in an air-tight plastic bag or plastic wrap. Be sure that the
filter is totally sealed.
•
To restore the air cleaner to service, unwrap the HEPA filter, install a new
activated carbon pre-filter, and replace both filters in the air cleaner.
(See "How to change the Filters..." section for proper installation.)
