THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING BLUEAIR
Ready to start breathing cleaner air? First, read this User Guide to ensure that you use the Blueair 501/Blueair 601 safely and effectively. Then plug it in, turn it on and… breathe. Don’t hear anything? Check the blue “power on” light. Blueair is so quiet on min speed, you may not realize it’s on. But as the patented Blueair system removes dust, pollen, smoke, gases and odors from your indoor environment, we think you’ll notice the difference.
GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Before using it for the first time, please read these safety instructions and take precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury. (And keep in mind the Limited Warranty applies only if the unit is used according to instructions.)
To reduce the risk of electric shock, the Blueair 501/Blueair 601 has a grounding type plug (with a third pin) that will only fit a grounding type outlet. If the plug does not fit your outlet, contact a licensed electrician to install a grounded outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.

Do not let the Blueair come in contact with water. It is not designed for use outdoors or in wet areas (such as bathrooms).
SETTINGS
When turning on the Blueair after the unit has been off, turn the speed control to max speed for a few minutes of fast initial cleaning. Then adjust the control to the desired speed:

HELP KEEP THE PLANET HEALTHY, TOO
At Blueair, were in the business of clean air. Our air purifiers are designed for maximum improvement of indoor air, with minimum impact on the natural world.
The Blueair particle filter is made of polypropylene, which breaks down into water and car­bondioxide when burned.
Blueair filters contain no triclosan or other chemical additives. All major parts are made from high-quality galvanized steel. The external parts have been powder coated for endurance and environmental protection
(with no introduction of chemical outgassing). The Blueair 501/Blueair 601 is energy efficient. Blueair air purifiers are built for years of use. They are also designed to be disassembled
and the components sorted and recycled.

FILTERS
Patented HEPASilent technology makes the Blueair 501/Blueair 601 incredibly quiet. Units come with one HEPASilent filter kits (installed):
Particle Filter Kit – Includes 3 particle filters that remove dust, pollen, bacteria, pet dander, mold spores and other airborne particles. The particle filter is made of polypropylene, which mechanical­ly filters out airborne particles. To maximize filter effectiveness, particles are negatively charged before reaching the filters.
Smokestop™ Filter Kit – Includes 3 particle filters with enhanced active carbon. This filter kit is recommended for use in rooms where gaseous pollutants such as cigarette and cigar smoke or other VOCs (volatile organic compounds, such as most household paints) are present. On first use, you may notice a slight odor from the enhanced active carbon; this will dissipate quickly.
For optimal performance Blueair recommends that you replace filters every six months.
We offer a convenient Filter Subscription Program (not available in all countries). For information or to place an order, contact your local dealer or Blueair.
IMPORTANT! Use only Blueair filters to ensure proper functioning and to qualify your unit for full warranty coverage.
