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
environment--it cleans your air and fits your life.
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.
Equipped with 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.
HEPA Filter Indicator – When the HEPA fil-
ter is approaching the end of its useful life,
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.
ENERGY STAR ® – This product earned the ENERGY STAR ®
by meeting strict energy efficient guidelines set by the US
EPA. The energy efficiency of this ENERGY STAR qualified
model is measured based on a ratio between the model’s
CADR for dust and the electrical energy it consumes, or
CADR/ Watt.
Timer –The timer allows you to run your air purifier at your
convenience, for up to 16 hours. To operate using the timer
mode, at the control panel on the air purifier, turn the unit on
and select a speed. Note: Timer cannot be controlled with
the remote control.
To activate the timer, press the "+" and "-" speed buttons at
the same time for approximately 3 seconds.
The numbers in the display will begin flashing and the light will
appear to indicate timer function is on. Push “+” or “-” button
to cycle through the timer options (1- 16). When you have
reached desired hours that you want your air purifier to run,
release finger from the button and the numbers will stop
flashing and timer will be on. The air purifier will then operate
for that period of time and shut off automatically. Speeds can
be changed once the timer is activated by pushing the “+” or
“-“ buttons. To view the time left to run once timer has been
set, push the “+” and “-“ at the same time for 3 seconds. You
can manually turn the air purifier off by pressing the ON/OFF
