The use of attachments not recommended or sold by Jarden Consumer Solutions may cause hazards. • DO NOT use outdoors. • NEVER place on a soft surface such as a bed or sofa as this could cause the unit to tip over and block the air inlet or outlet grills. • Keep unit away from heated surfaces and open flames. • DO NOT place anything on top of unit. • DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or mechanical functions on this unit. Doing so will void your warranty. The inside of the unit contains no user serviceable parts. All servicing should be performed by Jarden Consumer Solutions or an authorized Jarden Consumer Solutions Service Center. • WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, DO NOT use this air cleaner with any solid-state speed control device. • Always turn the appliance off before unplugging it. • NEVER use detergents, gasoline, glass cleaner, furniture polish, paint thinner or other household solvents to clean any part of the air cleaner. • The ionizer may cause a static charge to build up on the air output grill. A static charge may be felt if the unit is not properly grounded. To avoid a static charge, plug the unit's three-prong plug into a grounded outlet, or properly install a ground adaptor (see PLUG SAFETY). The static charge will not occur if the ionizer is off. • The ionizer in this appliance produces less ozone than the UL established limits of 50ppb. However, in high concentrations, ozone can be harmful to birds and small pets. To prevent ozone buildup, we suggest using the ionizer in well ventilated areas with the fan on. • This appliance should only be used in a room with temperatures between 40° F and 110° F. PLEASE SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS PLUG SAFETY To reduce the risk of electric shock, THIS PRODUCT IS EQUIPPED WITH A 3-PRONG PLUG, a grounding type plug that has a third (grounding) pin. The cord has a plug (A) as shown. An adapter (C) can be purchased for connecting three-blade grounding-type plugs to two-slot receptacles (B). The green grounding wire or 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. This plug will only fit into a grounding type power outlet. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet. This product is for use on 120 volts. DO NOT ALTER THE PLUG IN ANY WAY. CORD SAFETY • The length of cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce tangling and tripping hazards. • 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 cleaner (see rating label marked on product). • 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. FEATURES GET TO KNOW YOUR AIR CLEANER Your Bionaire® air cleaner features a Permanent HEPA-Type filter that removes up to 99% of airborne dust and pollen as small as 2 microns and helps reduce smoke, mold spores and pet dander from the air passing through the filter. • Permanent filters can be vacuumed every few months for easy cleaning. • Washable pre-filter captures larger particles and extends the permanent filter’s cleaning cycle. • Optional ionizer naturally improves performance and helps freshen the air. • Slim tower design allows placement in almost any area of the room. • Remote control allows convenient operation from anywhere in the room. IONIZER This appliance has an optional ionizer feature which, when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air to help the air purification process. What Are Ions? Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative charge. They exist naturally around us: in the air, water, and ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless, odorless, and completely harmless. How Does The Ionizer Work? Negative ions help air purification 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. These larger particles are then more easily captured by the filter system. IMPORTANT NOTES: Your ionizer may produce an occasional popping or cracking sound. This is normal and occurs when a small buildup of ions is discharged. After extended use, you may notice dust around the grills or front panel. This is caused by negative ions exiting the air outlet, evidence of the ionizer’s air cleaning effectiveness. You can remove the dust with a soft brush or clean, damp cloth. Larger particles may be attracted to positively charged surfaces throughout the home, like walls or floors. • This may occur more frequently when the filter is nearing the end of its useful product life and unable to c...
