THE ADDITIONAL BENEFIT OF NEGATIVE IONIZATION.
This Bionaire
®
model is a compact air cleaner offering the
benefits of negative ionization. Behind the outlet grill you will
notice two sharp pins pointing into the airstream. This is the
ionization source.
Responding to the challenge of improving the quality of indoor
air, Bionaire
®
introduced compact air cleaners to combine
the revolutionary HEPA filter system along with ion generators
producing millions of negative ions.
In order to maintain the ion output, the emitter pins should
be cleaned, as per the “Cleaning Instructions”, when an
accumulation of dust is noticed on the tips of the pins.
After extended use, dust may collect around the outlet panel.
This is due to the electrostatic precipitation process initiated
by the negative ions emerging from the unit. This dust does
not originate from the discharged air but is drawn out of the
uncleaned air going past the air outlet. It is additional evidence
of the air-cleaning effectiveness of negative ions. The dust is
easily removed by wiping the panel with a soft cloth.
WALL-MOUNTING
There are two keyhole slots on the back which allow
the unit to hang on two suitable screws inserted into a wall.
Select #8 Pan Head screws that are approximately
1" - 1 1/4" long that can be inserted into and retained by the
keyhole slots. Verify their suitability before fixing them in the wall
by sliding them into the keyhole slots.
Carefully mark the two hole locations horizontally on the
wall (distance between holes should be; 4.5 inches (11.4 cm).
Make sure that the screws are of correct length to give reliable
support. The use of wall plugs or expansion devices will be
needed for plaster board walls.
Drive screws into the wall leaving a gap of 3/8 inch (9.5 mm)
between the wall and the underside of the screw head.
Hold the air cleaner against the wall, insert the screw heads
into the keyhole slots, carefully lower the unit to fully engage the
