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:

1.

Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2.

To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance

 

directly into a 120V AC electrical outlet.

3.

If the filter is covered by a bag when shipped,

 

remove plastic bag before use.

4.

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.

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

 

filters and whenever the unit is not in use. To

 

disconnect the unit, be sure to pull the plug and not

 

the cord.

8.

NEVER drop or insert any objects into the openings of

 

the unit.

9.

DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord

 

or plug. If the motor fan fails to operate or the unit

11.

DO NOT use outdoors.

12.

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.

13.

Keep unit away from heated surfaces and open flames.

14.

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 Center.

15.

DO NOT place anything on top of unit.

16.

NEVER use detergents, gasoline, glass purifier,

 

furniture polish, paint thinner, or other household

 

solvents to clean any part of the appliance.

17.

Always turn the appliance off before unplugging it.

18.

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.

19. This appliance should only be used in a room with

 

temperatures between 40° F and 110° F.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric

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

HIGH, MEDIUM AND LOW SPEED SETTINGS

FILTER REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT:

DO NOT attempt to wash and re-use the Aer1® Filters.

If the filters are enclosed in plastic bags, remove them before use.

NOTE:

Every few weeks, check the condition of filter. 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 Filter will last 4 months while the Allergen Filter will last 12 months.

To replace your filter:

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, drip dry and place back into grill inlet.

3.Remove the used Aer1® filter from the unit by pulling it gently towards you and discard it. DO NOT attempt to clean the Aer1® filter.

4.Install the new Aer1® filter into the unit. This model utilizes a hang tab and filter clips to insure that the

filter is properly in place. Before replacing the filter, make sure that the hang tab is securely in place. The clip can only be attached to the tabs on the filter one way. The filter clip

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.
