When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons. These precautions include:
•Read all instructions before using the appliance.
•To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance directly into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
•If the filter is covered by a bag when shipped: Remove plastic bag before use.
•Keep the cord out of heavy traffic areas. To avoid fire hazard, NEVER put the cord under rugs, near heat registers, radiators, stoves, or heaters.
•To protect against electrical hazards, DO NOT immerse in water or other liquids. Do not use near water.
•Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children, or disabled persons.
•Always unplug the air cleaner before moving or cleaning the unit, opening the grill, changing the filters and whenever the unit is not in use. To disconnect the unit, be sure to pull the plug and not the cord.
•NEVER drop or insert any objects into the openings of the unit.
•Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug. If the motor fan fails to operate or the unit has been dropped or damaged in any manner, return appliance to manufacturer for examination and/or repair.
•Use appliance only for intended household use as described in this manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer 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 in this appliance produces less ozone than the UL established limits of 50ppb (parts per billion). 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 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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.
GET TO KNOW YOUR AIR CLEANER
Your Bionaire® air cleaner features true HEPA filtration that removes up to 99.97% of airborne allergens as small as 0.3 microns, including ragweed pollen, grass pollen, tree pollen, household dust, dust mite debris, mold spores, pet dander and smoke from the air passing through the filter.
•Filters have been treated with
•Washable
•Optional ionizer naturally improves performance and helps freshen the air.
•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 capture as many charged particles. |
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 fan on.
IMPORTANT: Always check the condition of the HEPA filters at the recommended intervals and replace filters if necessary (See FILTER REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS). Using the ionizer with dirty filters may result in dirty particles exiting the air purifier and attracting to walls, carpets, furniture, or other household objects. These dirty particles may prove difficult to remove.
GERM-FIGHTING SILVER HEPA FILTER
Your air cleaner features true HEPA filtration that has been treated with
•True HEPA filter removes up to 99.97% of airborne allergens as small as 0.3 microns, including ragweed pollen, grass pollen, tree pollen, household dust, dust mite debris, mold spores, pet dander and smoke from the air passing through the filter.
•Silver coated filter eliminates of bacteria and viruses from the air stream*.
FILTER CHECK INDICATOR
The filter check indicator ( ) eliminates guesswork by letting you know when it is time to replace the filters.
REMOTE CONTROL
The convenient remote control lets you select the filtering speed from anywhere in the room.
FOUR SPEED SETTINGS
For optimum air filtration, operate your Bionaire® air cleaner continuously on the highest (4) setting. Its rugged motor has been designed to give many years of use. For quieter operation (such as in a bedroom), select the lowest (1) setting.

The timer allows you to run the air cleaner at your convenience, for up to 9 hours, and automatically turns the power off when time is up, to help reduce energy costs.
BEFORE USE
1.Carefully unpack your air cleaner.
2.Select a firm, level surface with no obstructions to the air inlets or outlets.
3.If the filter is covered by a bag when shipped, remove plastic bag before use and place filters into unit. (Reference FILTER REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS).
BEFORE USING THE REMOTE CONTROL:
Battery Replacement
1.Locate the battery cover on the back of the remote control handset.
2.Using a coin, rotate the battery cover counterclockwise and insert the battery.
