Sunbeam 2570 Introduction, HOW the Sunbeam 560 AIR Cleaner Works, Location, About Negative Ions

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of a Sunbeam 560 Air Cleaner. Your unit has been designed for years of continuous operation.

NOTE: This owner’s manual should be read tho- roughly before your air cleaner is operated. Retain your owner’s manual for future refer- ence.

HOW THE SUNBEAM 560 AIR

CLEANER WORKS

Your air cleaner has a unique High Efficiency Car- tridge (HEC) that combines four filters into one com- pact, disposable element for high efficiency cleaning and easy replacement of cartridge.

Polluted air enters into the air cleaner through the front grill. (Figure 1) As shown in Figure 2, the fan pulls in dirty air and the Pre-Filter (#l) traps large particles (hair, lint, etc.). The smaller particles (dust, smoke, pollen) are captured when the air passes through the 2-stage filter. (#2 and #3) The air then passes through a Charcoal After-Filter (#4) that helps remove house- hold odors. Next, the Negative Ion Generator (#5) releases negative ions into the air for extra air freshen- ing. The cleaned air then passes back into the room through the top grill. (Figure 1)

LOCATION

Remove and discard the plastic bag covering your air cleaner. Locate your air cleaner near an electrical outlet.

NOTE: DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD TO SUPPLY POWER TO YOUR AIR CLEANER.

Remember, the air cleaner must be placed so that air can freely circulate into the front grill and out of the top grill. (Figure 1) Never place your air cleaner on soft surfaces (such as beds, sofas or carpet) or next to sources of heat (such as stove tops, ovens, etc.).

ABOUT NEGATIVE IONS

Negative ions, which occur naturally in our environ- ment, are simply air molecules with a negative charge that help to remove positively charged pollutants from the air. However, when indoor air is cooled or recircu- lated, the negative ions get stripped out of the air. The negative ion generator in your air cleaner replenishes the negative ions in your home. These negative ions are attracted to pollutants and then to any grounded surface, e.g. walls.

OPERATION

Plug the cord into any standard household electrical outlet. (See data label on bottom of your air cleaner for electrical specifications and power consumption.)

Figure 3 is a diagram of the slide switch label. Initially, run the unit on HIGH for 1 minute before switching to the desired speed. The “FAN ONLY” position allows you to operate your air cleaner without the Negative Ion Generator engaged. When the Negative Ion Gen- erator is engaged, the operating light will be illumi- nated. (See the above section “About Negative Ions” for more information.) Your air cleaner is designed for continuous operation -- peak efficiency is obtained when the air cleaner remains on constantly. For best results, select “DAILY USE” setting.
