Getting the most from
your Blueair system
Settings*
Plug the cable into a grounded wall outlet and turn on your Blueair unit.
The blue light-emitting diode indicates that the unit is working. Set the
control knob to maximum speed, which is recommended for fast initial
cleaning, daytime use, or very polluted air. After a few minutes, adjust the
control to the desired speed. Minimum speed is generally recommended
for nighttime use.
Care and maintenance
Blueair air puriers feature high quality design, materials and workman-
ship. To keep your unit in top condition, we recommend routine cleaning.
Vacuum the air intake grille from the inside when you remove
the lters to replace them.
Vacuum the small inlets with a soft brush attachment.
Wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, clean, damp cloth.
Never clean with gasoline, chemical solvents or corrosive material
also as these agents may damage the surface.
Do not allow foreign objects to enter the ventilation or exhaust
openings. This may cause electric shock or damage the unit.
Do not try to repair or adjust any of the electrical or mechanical
functions on your Blueair unit yourself. Contact your local
dealer or Blueair for warranty information.
* For Blueair E Series units (250E, 450E, 550E, 650E), please refer to the separate sheet included with your unit for instructions on settings.
How it works
Air passes through an ion chamber
where airborne particles are
charged with negative ions.
Charged particles are drawn to the
HEPASilent™ lter surface. Puried
air, which is virtually contaminant-
free is re-circulated into the room.

The Blueair system is easy to use. Make sure your unit is the right size
for your room, and change the lters according to recommended lter
replacement schedule. Remember that, just as air conditioners and
heaters have limits to the volume of air they can cool or heat, every air
purication system has limits to the volume of air it can clean. Follow
these common-sense guidelines.
Close your windows
You wouldn’t throw open your windows on a hot summer day and
expect your air conditioner to work efciently, because you can feel the
hot air coming in and the cool air going out. Even though you can’t see
the contaminated air coming in and the clean air going out, the same
logic applies to your air purier.
Close your doors, too
Just as you might seal off part of your house on a cold winter night to
keep your heater working more efciently, seal off the room in which
your system is working for best results. This is especially important
for people using a Blueair system to ease nighttime asthma or allergy
attacks.
Run your system 24 hours per day
For best results, run your Blueair unit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Round-the-clock operation ensures that a continuous supply of clean,
ltered air constantly circulates throughout the room. Blueair systems
are designed for phenomenally low power usage. In fact, it costs about
the same to power a Blueair air purier as it does to power a single light
bulb, depending on the unit and the operating speed.
