Mode Descriptions

Max Auto Silent

In Max mode, the air purifier
operates at its maximum
speed. This mode is best for
quick cleaning.

Night mode is activated by a light sensor. As less light saturates a room, both the white

Night

lights on the control panel and the air quality feedback display will turn o. The color

Mode

wheel will dim. This contributes to a peaceful sleeping environment.

When powered on, the
BISSELL air400 will default to
auto mode. This mode prompts
the air purifier to adjust to an
ideal filtration level based on
the quality of your indoor air
as detected by the CirQulate™
System.

In Silent mode, air purification
is delivered at Library Quiet
sound levels, oering a
peaceful and calm room
setting. This mode is most
ideal for sleeping environments.

NOTE: When the air purifier goes into night mode, it will remain in which ever mode or fan
speed it was set to before going into night mode.

System

When set to Auto Mode, the BISSELL air400 uses its CirQulate™ System to provide optimum filtration
based on the air quality in your home.

CirQulate™ uses the air400’s PM 2.5 sensor to measure microscopic particles down to .3 microns, like
dust, pollen, and even smoke.

Then, CirQulate’s™ air quality feedback display identifies the air quality of your home in real-time,
making your once invisible concerns visible.
