Most times the cover has an interlock. Look for something prijecting from cover and the a place where this would fit into. Align cover then close. If you dont see one then look under or behind filter. Also check the filter is installed correctly (direction of airflow). Remove power (unplug or circut breaker) then power back on might reset as well.
Testimonial: "Thank you for your answer Larry, I have removed the filter several times, it is engaged properly, the clips on the bottom are being pushed in by the filter it just wont turn back on. I do get the 4 green lites to flash briefly when I put the face back on, but the lite in front of the sensor pad flashes red briefly every time I replace the face."

I hope this is not to late. This is an old post. But I have this same air cleaner. It does prove difficult at first to open and it feels like you are going to break it.
On the sides about two to three inches down is a large indentation. Slide your fingers in there and gently but firmly pull the face plate of the air cleaner off. The air cleaner is as big as the front of the air cleaner. It will slide right out. I hope this helps.

Power Off the unit then Press and HOLD the Off-Timer and Function buttons at the same time WHILE Powering the unit back On. The Replace Filter light will blink for 5 seconds than go out. Now you can release the the buttons.
Just to make sure everything is working fine power off and on the unit.
On a side note if you are a tight wad like me you may want to just smak the filter layers against the ground a few times to clean them and re-use them / make them last longer. When the replace fileter light comes on too often then it is time to replace the filter.
No worries ;o)

Hi Wayne, glad to hear it's working again. Sometimes turning it off and let it sit for a while does clear some of the problems weird enough.
I'd appreciate your feedback.

Mine quit too... The led screen went blank so I changed the battery. Now it does nothing. I totally disassembled it as the fan was turning stiffly.(should spin very easilly) The grease in the end bearing was stiff. I washed the gummy grease off the shaft and reoiled with synthetic oil. Your smell is probably motor windings overheating. I disassembled the electronic control and was disgusted to see that there is a glass fuse soldered to the circuit board. I believe the only reason for this fuse is to cause us consumers to needlessly replace otherwise good equipment. (It cost more to pay a repairman to replace the hidden fuse than to purchase a new unit)The fuse is not blown. At least this fuse actually looks lide a fuse unlife the stealth fuses most electronics have hidden in them. I can not obtain a wireing diagram on my 17005 unit but it has a black box inside behind the control panel. It looks like a small start capacitor, but it has a temp rating on it of 70*C. I suspicion it is a single use over heat safety which triggered when my motor got hot due to stiff bearings. I refuse to play their game and purchase a new air cleaner. I love this one... So, if I can not determine what that little black box is, I am going to bypass all the crappy electronics and just drill a hole on top by the handle and install a hi/lo/off manual switch directly to the motors wire hasness. This machine will never give me problems ever again, and if I oil the motor every couple of years with synthetic (Ander oil) this unit WILL last me for the rest of my life...

Most of the HEPA air filters which require washing lose their efficiency with each wash leaving you with the only viable option of replacing it with a new filter. In few cases the filter fibers needn't be washed and has extended filter life. Like in the case of a Clair e2f filter which needs to be cleaned using just a vacuum cleaner once a month and lasts for a minimum of 12 months even on 24/7 continuous use.
