FEATURES
gET TO KNOW YOUR AIR PURIFIER
Your Bionarie™ Air Purifier features a Permanent
HepA-Type filter that removes up to 99% of
airborne dust and pollen as small as 2 microns
and helps reduce smoke, mold spores and pet
dander from the air passing through the filter.
• permanent filters can be vacuumed every few
months for easy cleaning.
• Washable pre-filter captures larger particles and
extends the permanent filter's cleaning cycle.
• optional ionizer naturally improves performance
and helps freshen the air.
• Slim tower design allows placement in almost
any area of the room.
AIR QUALITY PARTICLE SENSOR
Your Bionaire™ Air Purifier includes a particle
sensor that measures indoor air quality. When set to
auto mode, it automatically adjusts the fan speed to
cycle between 1, 2 and 3 speed to provide optimum
filtration based on air particulate concentration. It
also helps conserve energy by only operating the fan
at higher speeds when needed.
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. The 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 filters
are approaching the time to be cleaned and are
unable to capture as many charged particles.
• excessive amounts of pet dander, dust, or
smoke may decrease the efficiency of the
filters and interfere with the ionization process.
To help prevent particles from attracting to
surfaces throughout your home:
• you may want to run the ionizer less often.
• Check the condition of the filter(s) more
frequently.
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 clean the permanent filter
at the recommended intervals (See CLeANING
THe FILTeR). 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.
HEPA-TYPE PERMANENT FILTER
The permanent filter allows easy maintenance
and eliminates the hassle of filter replacement.
HepA-Type (High efficiency particulate Air) filters
are designed to remove up to 99% of airborne
pollutants, at 2 microns or larger, from the air that
passes through them. These include tobacco smoke,
household dust, pet dander and pollen.
FILTER INDICATOR
The filter indicator light eliminates guesswork by
letting you know when it is time to clean the filters.
TIMER
The timer allows you to run the air purifier at your
convenience, for up to 8 hours, and automatically
turns the power off when time is up, to help reduce
energy costs.
LOW (1), MEDIUM (2) AND HIgH (3) SPEED
SETTINgS
for optimum air filtration, operate your Bionaire™
Air purifier continuously on the high setting (3). Its
rugged motor has been designed to give many years
of use. For quieter operation (such as in a bedroom),
select the low setting (1).
