| fire hazard, NEVER put the cord under rugs, near |
| heat registers, radiators, stoves, or heaters. |
5. | To protect against electrical hazards, DO NOT |
| immerse the appliance in water or other liquids. Do |
| not use near water. |
6. | Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is |
| used by or near children, or disabled persons. |
7. | Always unplug the air purifier before moving or |
| cleaning the unit, opening the grill, changing the |
| filter and whenever the unit is not in use. To |
| disconnect the unit, be sure to pull the plug and not |

safety instructions
CORD SAFETY
•The length of cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce tangling or 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 electrical rating of the air purifier (see rating label marked on bottom of the 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.
GET TO KNOW YOUR AIR PURIFIER
This unit is compatible with all Aer1® Filters. This allows you to choose the filter that is just right for you. Below is information on each filter:
TOTAL AIR - Advanced Dust Eliminating Technology ODOR ELIMINATOR - 10x the odor fighting power ALLERGEN REMOVER - 99.97% True HEPA technology improves air quality for allergy sufferers
ALLERGEN PERFORMANCEPLUS - 99.99% True HEPA technology improves air quality for allergy sufferers.
SMOKE GRABBER - 99% effective at removing smoke from the air steam (*as small as 0.3 microns from air passing through the filter)
IONIZER
This appliance has an optional ionizer feature which, when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing
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 usable product life and is unable to capture as many charged particles.
•Excessive amounts of pet dander, dust, or smoke may decrease the life expectancy of the filter and interfere with the ionization process.
To help prevent particles from attracting to surfaces throughout your home:
•You may want to run the ionizer less often.
•Check the condition of the filter(s) more frequently.
CAUTION: 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 air purifier fan on.

FILTER REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT:
•DO NOT attempt to wash and
•If the filters are enclosed in plastic bags, remove them before use.
NOTE:
Every few weeks, check the condition of filter(s). The VisipureTM feature includes a magnifying glass which allows you to get a magnified view of the dirt being collected in the filter. The Filter Reminder Dial also helps you keep track of when to change the filters. Filter life will vary, depending on air quality and usage (see below). Under normal conditions of continuous use, the Aer1 Total Air, Odor and Smoke Filters will last 4 months while the Allergen and Allergen PerformancePlus Filters will last 12 months.
After approximately 4 months of operation, check the condition of the filter through the VisipureTM magnifying glass and use Filter Reminder Dial to keep track on how long a filter has been in use.
•Filters with a 4 month filter life: Wash the foam pre- filter and replace the Aer1® filter(s) after 4 months of operation.
•Filters with a 12 month filter life: After 4 months of operation, it is recommended to wash the foam pre- filter and check the condition of your filter(s) through the VisipureTM magnifying glass. The filters must be replaced after 12 months of operation.
To replace your filter(s):
1. Turn off and unplug the air purifier.
2. Open the air inlet grill and examine the black foam prefilter. Remove any dust or lint and wash in warm soapy water. Rinse, air dry and place back into grill inlet.
3. Remove the used Aer1® filter(s) from the unit by pulling it gently towards you and discard it. DO NOT attempt to clean the Aer1® filters.
4.Install the new Aer1® filter(s) into the unit.This model utilizes a hang tab and filter clip(s) to insure that the filter(s) are properly in place. Before replacing the filter(s), make sure that the hang tab is securely in place. The clip(s) can only be attached to the tabs on the filter(s) one way. The filter clip(s) 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. (Fig. 2)
5.Align the clip(s) on the side of Aer1® filter(s) with rails on the inside of the purifier unit. Gently slide the filter(s) onto the rail. (Fig. 3)
6.Replace air inlet grill.

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not attempt to modify this plug or defeat this
safety feature in any way.
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 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,
For optimum air filtration, operate your Holmes® air purifier continuously on the MEDIUM (2) setting. Its rugged motor has been designed to give many years of use. For quieter operation (such as in a bedroom), select the LOW (1) setting. When high levels of air pollution are present, select the HIGH (3) setting to quickly circulate and filter the air in the room.
