Thank you!
Thank you for choosing a Wood's air purifier! In this manual you'll find everything you need to know about your Wood's air purifier.
Please keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference. For best capacity and to avoid any damage to your product,
it is important that you read these instructions carefully before using your product.
Poor air quality - a health hazard.
Daily, we inhale large amounts of harmful particles in our homes. Wood's air purifiers remove 99,98% of all pollen, dust, soot,
exhaust fumes, bacteria and mould spores from the indoor air and provide an instant relief for people suffering from allergies
and asthma. People who aren't sick are also affected by air pollution and will notice the difference when the air is kept free from
particles and pollution. Wood's air purifiers also remove radioactive radon daughters from the indoor air and prevent diseases from
spreading in the workplace or in your home.
High amounts of particles and pollution is a common problem in most cities and inhaling these pollutants can impair the lung
capacity of children and even lead to serious diseases for adults. The problem increases when the outside air gets drier during the
winter. An air purifier from Wood's guarantees a healthy indoor environment, no matter where you use it, and improves the air
quality before it affects your health.
1. Warnings and safety instructions

• Always keep the appliance away from water.
• Always keep the appliance away from heat sources.
• Do not block the air flow from the unit.
• Do not use the unit outdoors.
• Wood's air purifiers must be connected to a grounded power outlet.
• Always unplug the unit before moving it, storing it, cleaning it or maintaining its filter.
• Make sure that it is placed on a solid, flat surface.
• Careless handling or unauthorized alteration of the chord or electronics of the air purifier could void the warranty.
• The warranty is only valid upon production of a receipt.
2. Trouble shooting and technical data
The air purifier doesn't start.
•
Check that it is connected to a power source and that it is switched on.
•
Check that the top latch is firmly closed
•
Check that the filters are properly inserted in the unit.
No air flow from the air purifier
•
Check that the air flow isn't blocked. The air must be able to flow freely on both the sides and the front of the air purifier.
•
Move the purifiers away from any surrounding surfaces.
Noises are coming from the air purifier
•
Check that the unit is placed on a solid, flat surface.
•
Check if the filter needs replacing. A too dirty filter may block the air flow, causing noise.

3. Using your Wood's air purifier
• Place the air purifier on a level ground in the middle of the room.
• Connect the unit to a grounded power outlet.
• Switch the air purifier on and choose fan speed with the fan speed knob on the back of the unit (see Fig. A). The Wood's ELFI 900
lets you choose between 4 fan speeds; a higher fan speed means higher air flow and faster purification but also slightly higher
power consumption and noise level. Please refer to Fig. A for more information.
• When the air purifier is running, you can feel the air flow from the sides of the unit.
• For best results, leave the air purifier running continuously, even during the night or when you leave the house.
• The filters in the unit need to be replaced regularly, at least once every six months. Read more about replacing the filter below.
• For best results, place the air purifier in the centre of the room. Make sure that the air flow isn't blocked.
4. Workings of your Wood's air purifier
The Wood's ELFI 900 circulates the air through the room with two fans, taking in air from its front and exhausting clean air from its
sides. For optimum air purification, it is usually recommended that the air purifier is powerful enough to circulate the air through
the room twice every hour. This unit is therefore recommended for rooms up to 160m
demanding environment, for example very dirty rooms or rooms where people smoke, you need to circulate the air more often.
The maximum working area might therefore be smaller than in a less demanding environment. A demanding environment will also
affect how often you need to replace the filters in the unit. We therefore recommend that you check the filters regularly and replace
the filters when needed. Please refer to the filter chapter below for more information.
When the air is circulated in the room and passed through the ionization part of the air purifier, the particles in the air are given a
positive charge. When the air passes through the air purifier, the charged air particles are drawn to the Active ION HEPA filter where
they stick. This technique is not only very efficient, it also allows for a low filter density. By using an electrical charge to separate the
particles from the air, Wood's doesn't have to rely on the density of the filter to receive a high level of purification. This means that
no noisy and energy consuming fans are needed to circulate the air, which is needed in purifiers using traditional filters of the same
capacity.
Carbon filter (optional)
If the unit is equipped with carbon filters, the gases in the air are adsorbed by the carbon filters after the air has passed through the
Active ION HEPA filter. The carbon filters remove gases and unpleasant odour from the air. Place the carbon filters outside the Active
ION HEPA filters. Replace the carbon filters when they are expired according to step 1-5 below.
5. Cleaning and filter maintenance
Wood's air purifiers are easy to clean and maintain. If needed, use a damp cloth or vacuum cleaner to clean the outside of the air puri-
fier. Avoid using solvents or strong cleaners as this may damage the surface of the air purifier.
Filter change
The Active ION HEPA filters in the Wood's ELFI 900 need to be changed regularly due to their ionization. To receive the full, 10 years
warranty make sure to change the filters at least once every six months. However, the filters may need to be replaced more often
depending on the environment. The filters also have a status indicator that shows when they need replacing.
1.
Switch the air purifier off and unplug it from the power outlet.
2.
Open the air purifier by gently turning the top latch.
3.
Remove the consumed filters.
4.
Insert two new filters as marked by the arrows on the filter.
5.
Close the air purifier and reconnect it to the power outlet.
Access the filter by turning the top latch of the unit. Please refer to Fig. B for more information.
