Apollo is facing the room or sampling area. - Take a filter out of the ziplock bag, holding it carefully by
the tabs on the top or bottom of the frame. - Insert the top two tabs of the filter into the filter holder
and click the rest of the filter into place by pushing down on the
edges. - Slide the assembled filter into the slot at the top of the
Apollo device. Make sure that the flat end of the filter is at the
top and the curved end is facing down. Check that it is secure. The
open side of the filter holder should be facing the front of the
device. - Plug the Apollo device into an electrical outlet. The LED light
should turn on when plugged in correctly. - Run Apollo for the desired duration, typically 12-24 hours.
Make a note of the duration and include this information with
returned samples. - When the sampling time is finished, turn off the device at the
wall plug before attempting to remove the filter. - To remove the filter from the Apollo, hold the edge of the
filter frame and slide it off by pulling up and out on the bottom
tab. Place the filter directly back into the ziplock bag and seal
it tightly. Keep the filter refrigerated until it can be shipped to
