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 that are
then more readily captured by the filter system, or 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 functional life
expectancy and is able to capture less of the charged particles.

You may also note after extended use, that dust has
collected around the grills or front panel. This is from the
ionization affect caused by the negative ions exiting from
the air outlet. This is additional evidence of the air cleaning
effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be easily
removed with a clean, damp cloth or soft brush.

Thank you for choosing a Bionaire air cleaner. To ensure
the best performance from your air cleaner, please read
and save the following instructions.
CLEANING/MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Read instructions
before operating.
Retain for future reference.
IONIZER
• DO NOT use outdoors.
1. Turn the air cleaner off and unplug it before cleaning.
Fig.4
Your air cleaner has an independently controlled ionizer,
which, when turned on, releases negative ions into
outgoing filtered air. Ions are tiny particles that carry a
positive or negative charge. These ions exist naturally
around us, in the air, water, and ground. Both positive and
negative ions are colorless, odorless, and completely
harmless. Negative ions help the air purification process by
attaching themselves to very small airborne particles in
the room.
• NEVER block the air openings, grills/outlets or place on
a soft surface such as a bed or sofa, as this could cause
the unit to tip over, blocking the air intake opening/grill.
2. The outside of the air cleaner can be cleaned with a
soft, clean dampened cloth.

3. The rear air inlet grill can be removed and washed in
warm soapy water (not dishwasher safe). Dry before
replacing in the unit.
• Keep unit away from heated surfaces and open flames.
