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 - True HEPA technology improves air quality for allergy sufferers
ALLERGEN PERFORMANCEPLUS - True HEPA technology improves air quality for allergy sufferers.
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 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 |
