Always unplug your air purifier from the electrical outlet before replacing or removing any filters.

  1. Unplug the power cord from the unit and from the outlet. The metal pre-filters are to be hand-washed only. If the filters are fairly clean, wash each filter with soapy, warm water. If the pre-filters are very dirty, you may need use a soft brush to gently clean them. Make sure the pre-filters are completely dry before placing back into the unit.
  2. Remove the HEPA H13 and active carbon filters as described on page 4.
  3. The best way to clean the HEPA H13 filters is to use a vacuum cleaner with the brush attachment. Gently run the brush attachment along the white side of the filter only. You do not need to vacuum the active carbon filter on the other side of the HEPA H13 filter.

LIMITED THREE-YEAR WARRANTY

This warranty supersedes all previous warranties on Cuisinart® Deluxe Can Opener. This warranty is available to consumers only. You are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart® Deluxe Can Opener that was purchased at retail for personal, family, or household use. Except as otherwise required under applicable state law, this warranty is not available to retailers or other commercial purchasers or owners. Wewarrant that your Cuisinart® Deluxe Can Opener will be free of defects in material or workmanship under normal home use for three years from the date of original purchase. We suggest that you complete and return the enclosed product registration card promptly to facilitate verification of the date of original purchase. However, return of the product registration card does not eliminate the need for the consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase in order to obtain the warranty benefits. In the event that you do not have proof of purchase date, the purchase date for purposes of this warranty will be the date of manufacture.

If your Cuisinart® Deluxe Can Opener should prove to be defective within the warranty period, we will repair it or, if we think it necessary, replace it. To obtain warranty service, please call our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726-0190 or write to:
Cuisinart, 150 Milford Road, East Windsor, NJ 08520

To facilitate the speed and accuracy of your return, please enclose $10.00 for shipping and handling of the product. Please also be sure to include a return address, daytime phone number, description of the product defect, product serial number (stamped on bottom of product base), and any other information pertinent to the product’s return. Please pay by check or money order. (California residents need only supply proof of purchase and should call 1-800-726-0190 for shipping instructions).

NOTE: For added protection and secure handling of any Cuisinart® product that is being returned, we recommend you use a traceable, insured delivery service. Cuisinart cannot be held responsible for in-transit damage or for packages that are not delivered to us. Lost and/or damaged products are not covered under warranty.

These warranties do not cover any damage caused by accident, misuse, shipment, or other than ordinary household use. These warranties exclude all incidental or consequential damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion of or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the foregoing limitation may not apply to you.

California Residents Only
California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store which sells Cuisinart® products of the same type. The retail store shall then, according to its preferences, either repair the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product. If either of the above two options does not result in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility if service or repair can be economically accomplished.

Cuisinart and not the consumer will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement, or refund for nonconforming products under warranty. California residents may also, at their preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair or, if necessary, replacement by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping and handling for such nonconforming products under warranty.
