SAFETY PRECAUTION
Carefully read and retain all instructions before using the air purifier.
•To avoid fire or shock hazard, check that the voltage on the product corresponds to your electricity supply and plug directly into an electrical outlet.
•Keep cord out of heavy traffic areas and to avoid fire hazard, never put the cord under rugs, or near any heat source.
•Carefully discard any plastic wrapping that was used for the packaging. If the filter is covered by a bag when shipped, remove plastic bag before use.
•Do not use the air purifier outside.
•Do not place the unit near any heat source or in direct sunlight.
•Always unplug the air purifier before moving it, opening the grill, changing the filters, cleaning the air purifier or whenever it is not in use.
•Do not use in or around water or any other liquids. Do not attempt to wash the unit under running water.
•Use appliance only for intended household use as described in this manual.
•Ensure that all air openings are not restricted or covered in any way.
•Do not place anything on top of the unit.
•Never insert any object into any openings.
•Do not use the air purifier if any part is missing or damaged in any way.
•Do not attempt to repair or adjust any mechanical functions of this unit. If the unit
•Should the air purifier stop working, first check the fuse in the plug (UK only) or fuse/circuit breaker at the distribution board is operating, before contacting the manufacturer or service agent.
•The ioniser 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 into a grounded outlet, or properly install a ground adaptor. The static shock will not occur if the ioniser is off.
•Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children, or disabled persons.
HOW THE AIR PURIFIER WORKS
Dirty, dust laden air is drawn through the back of the air purifier and through the multi-stage filtration system.
1.The carbon filter will help clear odours making the air cleaner and fresher.
2.The PERMAtech™ filter entraps 99% of all smaller visible and non-visible particles down to 2 microns in size.
IONISER
Your Bionaire® Air Purifier has an independently controlled ioniser, which when turned on, releases negative ions into the outgoing filtered air. Ions are tiny particles that carry either a positive or negative charge. These ions exist naturally all around us in the air, water and ground. Both positive and negative ions are colourless, odourless and completely harmless.
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 ionisation effect caused by the negative ions exiting from the air outlet.This dust does not come from the air output, but Is drawn out

PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1.After removing the unit from the box, remove the plastic covering from the unit.
2.Select a firm level place where there are no obstructions to the air inlet (rear grill) or filtered air outlet.

4.Remove both PERMAtech™ filters by gripping on both sides and pulling forward.
5.Remove protective plastic bag from each filter cartridge. The filter clip can only be attached to the hang tabs on the filter one way (see Fig. 2). The filter clip should easily slide onto the filter hang tabs. Do not use force whilst attaching the filter clip to the filter. Align the clip on the PERMAtech™ filter with the rails on the inside of the unit.(see Fig. 3)
NOTE: The pleated material and rubber gasket should be facing towards the unit when applied.
6.Replace the inlet grill by sliding back on to the unit. Make sure that it snaps securely into position (the grill only goes on one way). NOTE: Do not point outlet towards wall.
