      Select the operating speed you prefer. The purifier has low, medium and high options. Slide the switch to the preferred speed. Holmes recommends setting the filter to medium speed for regular filtering and turning it up to high when many contaminants are detected in the air. The low setting offers quieter operation when it's necessary.
