Negative ions help the air purification process by attaching
themselves to very small airborne particles in the room. These
particles take on a negative charge and may join with positively
charged particles such as dust, pollen, smoke and pet dander to
form larger particles that are then more readily captured by the
filter system, or they may be attracted to positively charged
surfaces like walls or floors.
You may also note after extended use, that dust may have
collected around the grills or front panel. This is from the
ionization affect caused by the negative ions exiting from the air
outlet. This is additional evidence of the air cleaning
effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be easily removed
with a clean, damp cloth or soft brush.
NOTE: It is important to replace the HEPA filter at the
recommended intervals. Using the ionizer in conjunction with
dirty filters may result in dirty particles exiting the air purifier and
being attracted to walls, carpets, furniture or other household
objects. These dirty particles may prove very difficult to remove.
PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Carefully unpack your Air Purifier. Select a firm level place
where there are no obstructions to the air inlet or filtered air
outlet. A good location in a room is approximately 1 foot away
from the wall, in a central location of your home.
2. Pull air inlet grill towards you by grasping the finger tabs on
both sides.
3. Remove HEPA filter by gripping on both sides and pulling forward.
4. Remove protective plastic bag from the filter cartridge.
5. This model utilizes a hang tab and filter clip. The clip can only
be attached to the tabs on the filter one way only. The filter clip
should easily slide onto the filter hang tab with only a small
amount of pressure. DO NOT use force while attaching the
clip to the filter (See Figure 1). Align the clip on the top of the
HEPA filter with the rails on the inside of the air purifier unit.
Gently slide the filter onto the rail (See Figure 2).
NOTE: The side with the soft gasket should face inward.
6. Replace air inlet grill back onto unit securely.
DO NOT POINT AIR OUTLET TOWARDS WALL.

• WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, DO
NOT use this air purifier with any solid-state speed control device.
• DO NOT place anything on top of unit.
• The ionizer may cause a static charge to build up on the air
output grill. A static-charged electric shock may be felt if the
unit is not properly grounded. To avoid a shock, plug the unit's
three-prong plug into a grounded outlet, or properly install a
ground adaptor as described in this manual. The shock will
not occur if the ionizer is off.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
THIS PRODUCT IS EQUIPPED WITH
A 3-PRONG PLUG. This product is
for use on 120 volts. The cord has a
plug (A) as shown. An adapter (C) is
available for connecting three-blade
grounding-type plugs to two-slot
receptacles (B). The green grounding
lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. The
adapter should not be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle
is available.
DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THIS
POLARIZED PLUG IN ANY WAY.
CORD AND PLUG INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The length of cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension
cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the rating of the air purifier. Care
must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not
drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or accidentally tripped over.
Thank you for choosing a Bionaire
®
air purifier. To ensure the
best performance from your air purifier, please read and save the
following instructions.
IONIZER
Your Air Purifier has an independently controlled ionizer, which,
when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air.
Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative charge.
These ions exist naturally around us, in the air, water and
ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless, odorless
and completely harmless.
