PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS.
PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. After removing the unit from the box, remove
the plastic covering from the unit.
2. Select a firm level place where there are no
obstructions to the air inlet (front grill) or filtered
air outlet.
3. Remove the inlet grill by pulling the grill towards
you.
1. Every few weeks check the condition of the
pre-filter.
With proper care and use, this Bionaire™
air purifier will give you fresh, clean air
for many years.
2. Remove the inlet grill. If the foam pre-filter has
collected a noticeable amount of dust, remove
it from the inlet of the grill and wash it in warm
soapy water. Rinse and dry the pre-filter thoroughly
before replacing it in the inlet of the grill.
3. With the inlet grill removed, remove the HEPA
cartridge and dispose in the dustbin. DO NOT
try to wash and re-use the HEPA filter. Replace
with a new HEPA filter-BAPF30 removing the
protective plastic bag before inserting into the
air purifier.
4. Align the clips on the side of your HEPA filter with
the rails on the inside of the unit. Gently slide
the filter onto the rails.
5. The filter clip should easily slide onto the filter
hang tabs. Do not use force while attaching the
filter clip to the filter. Align the clip on the side of
your HEPA filter with the rails on the inside of
the unit.
NOTE: Before reading these instructions, please
view the corresponding illustrations.

the air purifier and through the multi-stage filtration
system.
1. The carbon filter will help clear odours making
the air cleaner and fresher.
2. The HEPA filter entraps 99% of all smaller visible
and non-visible particles down to 2 microns in
size.
4. Remove both HEPA filters by gripping on both
sides and pulling forward.

The filter clip should easily slide onto the filter
hang tabs. Do not use force whilst attaching
the filter clip to the filter. Align the clip on the
HEPA filter with the rails on the inside of the unit.
NOTE: The pleated material and rubber gasket
should be facing towards the unit when applied.
6. Replace the inlet grill by sliding back on to the
unit. Make sure that it snaps securely into position
(the grill only goes on one way).

purifier or whenever it is not in use.
• Do not use in or around water or any other liquids.
Do not attempt to wash the unit under running
water.
• Use appliance only for intended household use
as described in this manual.
• Ensure that all air openings are not restricted
or covered in any way.
• Do not place anything on top of the unit.
• Never insert any object into any openings.
• Do not use the air purifier if any part is missing

6. Replace the inlet grill by sliding back on to the
unit. Make sure that it snaps securely into position
(the grill only goes on one way)
NOTE: Do not point outlet towards wall.
Ioniser
Your Bionaire™ Air Purifier has an independently
controlled ioniser, which when turned on, releases
negative ions into the outgoing filtered air. Ions
are tiny particles that carry either a positive or
negative charge. These ions exist naturally all
around us in the air, water and ground. Both positive
and negative ions are colourless, odourless and
completely harmless.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Plug into a suitable 220 – 240V electrical outlet.
2. Select the required operating Speed: Hi (

to the appropriate setting.

Negative ions help the air purification process 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 that are then more readily captured
by the filter system, or they may be attracted to
positively charged surfaces like walls or floors.
4. The ioniser will not work unless the unit is running.
REPLACEMENT FILTERS
5. For optimum air filtration, it is recommended to
operate the air purifier continuously. Its rugged
motor is designed to give many years of service.
6. For continuous use it is recommended to operate
the air purifier at the Medium ( ) setting. For
quieter operation or use in a bedroom, select

pollution are present, select the HI ( ) setting
to quickly circulate clean filtered air.
This is from the ionisation effect caused by the
negative ions exiting from the air outlet.This dust
does not come from the air output, but is drawn
out of the uncleaned air going past the air outlet.
This is additional evidence of the air cleaning
effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be
easily removed with a clean, dampened cloth or
soft brush.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1. Turn the air purifier off and unplug it before cleaning.
2. The outside of the air purifier can be cleaned
with a soft, clean dampened cloth.
3. The filtered air outlet can be cleaned of dust
with a small, soft brush.
4. If you wish to clean the inside of the air purifier,
please only use a dry, soft cloth to wipe it down.
NOTE: it is important to change the HEPA filter
at recommended intervals. Using the ioniser in
conjunction with dirty filters may result in dirty
