GETTING STARTED
- The product will require some assembly before use. The base ships in two separate pieces and will need to be assembled. Simply unscrew the pivot nuts on each base half (keeping the O-ring installed on the base), marry the two base halves together, and reinstall the pivot nuts.
- Once the base is assembled and resting on the floor, place the PURIFY 5 directly on the base.
- To change the product orientation, simply flip the base over and rest the product on the base
NOTE: Do NOT place the product directly on the floor without a base. Do NOT use the product without a base.
CONTROL PANEL
HOW TO USE
- Press to power the unit on and off.
- Select desired speed by pressing: Low, Medium, Medium-High, High. Speed is indicated by a number of fan speed lights illuminated.
NOTE: Dust and allergens are most airborne when persons and pets are active in the room. For best results, set the unit on HIGH during these times for high-demand cleaning and circulation. Set the unit to a lower setting for quieter operation when activity is reduced. - Filter Replacement – Your product is equipped with a Filter Replacement indicator light to show when it is recommended to change the filter cartridge. Please refer to FILTER REPLACEMENT for instructions. This feature is controlled by the time of use. The light will illuminate after 4,500 hours of run time has accumulated.
NOTE: User environments will differ. The filter replacement time is based on average use situations. If you are using the air cleaner in a more demanding environment, you may need to change your filter more frequently. In less polluted environments the filter life may extend beyond the notification.
TRUE HEPA FILTRATION
Without properly calibrated airflow, products with a True HEPA Filter will not achieve their full filtration potential. Gaps, poorly sealed filter housings, and excessive air velocity all reduce the effectiveness of the product. Independent testing laboratory verifies that the precise calibration of a Sharper Image Air Purifier allows it to perform at True HEPA standards.
3-IN-1 FILTRATION
Carbon filtration captures odors and prolongs HEPA filter life. The honeycomb design and use of carbon pellets enable the filter to adsorb more household odors and harmful gases than a traditional carbon filter. HEPA filtration captures 99.97% of particles 0.3 microns or larger, to effectively clean large volumes of air. The Pre-filter removes larger particles such as hair, pet dander, and mold spores.
Maintain the high efficiency of your Sharper Image Air Purifier by regularly replacing used filters with fresh new ones. Your Sharper Image Air Purifier will indicate with an illuminated filter replacement icon when it is time to change the filter cartridge. To purchase replacement filter cartridges, please email help @sihomecomfort. com or call 1-833-800-8669.
FILTER REPLACEMENT
GENUINE SHARPER IMAGE FILTERS ARE RECOMMENDED
Peak performance is only realized when genuine Sharper Image Carbon and HEPA filters are used. Others may claim to be compatible with Sharper Image units, but the Sharper Image Air Purifier is calibrated to achieve a 99.97% capture rate of particles 0.3 microns or larger, only when used with Sharper Image Filters.
HOW TO REPLACE YOUR FILTERS
- Turn off and unplug the unit.
- Turn over the unit and remove the Filter Frame by twisting the Filter Frame Support Tabs to the open position.
- Remove and discard used Filters. Simply take hold of the Pre-Filter at any place along the perimeter and remove it. To remove the Filter Cartridge, pull upward on the side tabs until the filter is removed. NOTE: Clean any remaining dust or hair inside the unit by using a vacuum hose. Do Not use water or liquids to clean the unit.
- Replace with genuine Sharper Image Filters. Place the Filter Cartridge in the unit and gently press around the perimeter to ensure placement. The carbon side of the cartridge will go into the unit first so tabs on Hepa are facing up. Place Pre-
Filter on top of Hepa. NOTE: Take care to remove any plastic bag covering from your replacement filter. - Place Filter Frame on top of Pre-Filter and twist Filter Frame Support tabs into the locking position
- Turn the unit right-side up.

turned off. NOTE: Do not operate the Air Purifier without a Sharper Image 3-in-1 Filter Cartridge.

FAQs About Sharper Image PURIFY 5 Air Purifier
How long do the filters for Sharp air purifiers last?
around ten years
How frequently should an air purifier filter be changed?
every calendar year
How frequently should an air purifier be used?
We advise that you leave your air purifier on all day long.
How long should an air purifier be left on?
We advise running air purifiers at their most “quiet” setting, often medium, 24 hours a day. (By “quiet” we mean below 50 decibels; however, on many machines the medium setting creates significantly less noise, in the low 40s.)
How can I tell whether the filter in my air purifier is dirty?
Check out the filter first. Depending on the type of filter, it needs cleaning if it appears grey or black with dust and dirt. The decreasing effectiveness of the air purifier is another indication that the filter needs to be cleaned.
How long does it take for an air purifier to filter a space?
Your air purifier may need 30 minutes to clear the air in a small space. It could take up to two or three hours for larger rooms.
Can I wash the filter on my air purifier?
If your HEPA filter is not clearly marked as washable or “permanent,” then the answer is no.
Do I need to clean the filter on my air purifier?
In order to keep an air purifier operating properly, you should ideally clean it frequently or change its filters.
What occurs if the air purifier filter isn’t changed?
If you don’t replace your air filter, it will quickly fill up with dust and other debris and stop effectively filtering the air.
Can you regularly use an air purifier?
It is preferable to leave your air purifier on all day because air pollution is a constant and widespread issue.
