CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Be sure the unit is switched off and unplugged from the power
outlet.
PLASTIC HOUSING - A soft cloth and non-abrasive cleaner
may be used to remove any excessive dirt or fingerprints.
Treated like any other quality appliance, your Bionaire
® unit
will retain its attractive appearance for many years.
ION EMITTER PINS - FIRST, TURN OFF AND UNPLUG THE
UNIT. Reach into the air exit grill with a cotton swab dipped into
alcohol to clean any dirt that may have accumulated on the pins.
Use caution when cleaning pins.
WARNING: Do not wash the HEPA filter cartridge or the
carbon filter. These are disposable items.
FILTER REPLACEMENT
To keep your unit operating at peak efficiency, the HEPA filter
cartridge should be replaced as needed or as indicated by the
Filter Condition Monitor (figure 2, LC0760 & LC1060). The HEPA
filter cartridge is designed with large media surface areas and
may last up to one year in typical operation. The rate at which
the filter clogs with particulates depends on the volume and
quality of air being filtered. If the unit is used continuously on
high in a room with a strong source of particulates, such as a
work shop, then the effective life of the filter will be reduced. In a
cleaner environment, operating mainly on lower speeds, the filter
will last longer. The carbon filter should be replaced regularly,
about every three months or when odor removal effectiveness
is noticeably reduced.
