Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord where it cannot be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
BACKGROUND
First, thank you for choosing a Bionaire® Air Purifier. The Air Purifier was created because consumers, like you, provided a lot of feed- back about what you wanted in an air purifier. With the features con- sumers want in mind, we worked with sound experts and engineers to make the unit quieter and smaller, with more advanced technolo- gies. We designed a patented modular filter system for easier filter replacement. The result is an air purifier that is in harmony with your
FEATURES
Dual Position- The air purifier can stand upright or lie on its side. Also designed to fit with its back flush against the wall. When positioning the unit, please be sure the air inlet grill, filters and air outlet are not blocked to ensure maximum airflow.

motor – For quieter performance and the added durability nec- essary for continuous use.
Filter Window – On the front grill, there is a small opening that will enable you to see your carbon filter at a glance. As it picks up dust and debris, the window will turn to gray indicating the air purifi- er is working and you may need to change the carbon filters.

the indicator light will turn red. When the red indicator light starts flashing, it is time to change the HEPA filter.
Carbon Filter Indicator – When the carbon filter indicator light turns yellow, it is time to change the carbon filter.
