IMPORTANT WARNINGS
Before using your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier, please read the following important information.
First, please look at the “Main Parts” diagram and locate the part labeled A.
ese are the collection blades and are a vital part of this amazing ionic air purifying system.
e collection blades are where unhealthy pollutants, allergens and irritants are trapped when the Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purier is in proper working condition and in use.
e Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purier is designed to run quietly and requires very little time and eort to maintain in proper working condition. If you hear excessive noise or static coming from your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purier, it generally indicates that the product needs to be cleaned. Turn o your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purier, unplug the cord and carefully follow the cleaning instructions in the “CLEANING & MAINTENANCE” section of this manual.
If the product is still making excessive noise after cleaning and thoroughly drying the collection blades and re-inserting them as described in the “CLEANING & MAINTENANCE” section of this manual, turn o and unplug the unit. After you have turned o and unplugged the unit,
see Diagram B or F for the location of the Wire Cleaning Mechanism. Lift and lower the Wire Cleaning Mechanism three to four times to thoroughly clean the internal ionizing wires (see Diagram H in the “CLEANING & MAINTENANCE” section). is movement helps to scrape free particles from the internal ionizing wires. To keep your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purier working properly, it will be necessary to clean the collection blades after every month of use and the internal ionizing wires after every two weeks of use (see “CLEANING & MAINTENANCE” and “DEEP CLEANING” section of this manual for the proper techniques).
WARNING: After cleaning the collection blades (see “cleaning and maintenance” section) with soap and water, allow at least 24 hours for the collection blades to dry thoroughly before inserting them back into the unit. Water can easily get trapped along the collection blades’ many surfaces and edges and damage could result if there is any moisture on the collection blades.
You will need to clean your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier more often if it has been exposed to heavy pollution.

Do not place Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier near a fireplace. Even if a fireplace is not in use, chimney dust and soot may circulate through the Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier and then re-circulate and leave a residue on the unit and surrounding areas. We recommend not placing the Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier anywhere near candles or oil lamps. If you intend to use candles or oil lamps near the Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier despite this warning, make sure that the wicks are cut to no more than a quarter inch to cut down on smoke production.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
UNIT
With very little effort, the Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier delivers cleaner, fresher, healthier air to your indoor environments.
Keep your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier functioning properly by cleaning the collection blades after every month of use as recommended. The internal ionizing wires are an important part of the Ionic Pro
®
air purifying system and need to be cleaned after every two weeks of use or if your unit starts to make a buzzing noise (see “TO CLEAN IONIZING WIRES” and “DEEP CLEANING” sections).
More frequent cleaning is often required if your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier is new or if you place it in a different location. Exposing your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier to candle/oil lamp/fireplace soot and smoke is not recommended and will require the collection blades to be cleaned after every exposure (see “IMPORTANT WARNINGS”).

Helpful Tips: Remember to clean your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier every month and any time the red CLEAN/FAULT light comes on or whenever you hear your unit begin to make excessive noise.
To Clean the Collection Blades
Turn o and unplug your Ionic Pro® Compact air purier. Let the unit rest a minute.
Next, lift o the removable cap and pull up on the collection blades’ handle to slide the collection blades out of the top of your Ionic Pro® ionic air purier.
Do not touch the metal blades until after discharging residual electricity by touching blades to an electrical ground such as a water pipe or metal faucet. Wipe away the trapped particles collected on the three blades with a slightly damp sponge or cloth. If you use a slightly damp cloth to clean the blades, it is possible the collection blades will be completely dry within two to three hours. Always allow the collection blades to dry thoroughly before resuming use.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purier, make sure the collection blades are completely dry and free of all moisture and that your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purier is turned o and unplugged before attempting to re-insert the collection blades.
If you have used soap and water to clean the collection blades, wait at least 24 hours to ensure that they are thoroughly dry before re-inserting them into your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purier.

TROUBLE-SHOOTING
Deep Cleaning
Noisy functioning (audible loud buzzing sound) is a sign that your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier is overdue for a complete clean-up of the collection blades and the internal ionizing wires. The internal ionizing wires must be kept clean to ensure silent and normal operation.
For deep cleaning, follow both the “TO CLEAN THE COLLECTION BLADES” & “TO CLEAN IONIZING WIRES” sections.
IMPORTANT: MAKE SURE THE THOROUGHLY CLEANED AND DRIED COLLECTION BLADES ARE PROPERLY INSERTED, THE REMOVABLE CAP IS BACK IN ITS ORIGINAL POSITION, AND THE WIRE CLEANING MECHANISM IS BACK IN ITS ORIGINAL POSITION BEFORE RESUMING USE—OR THE UNIT WILL NOT FUNCTION.
Cleaning External Surfaces
Over time, some particles and dust may accumulate on the external surfaces of your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier. If this happens, turn off and unplug the unit. Mix one ounce of laundry bleach with five ounces of water and apply sparingly with a sponge to wipe the outer case surfaces. Do not allow water to slip into the internal parts of the Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier as this could damage its functioning and may result in injury to you. Allow the unit to dry for at least 24 hours before resuming use.

LIMITED ONE YEAR WARRANTYMORE THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
Ozone and Your Health
After you activate your Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier, you may notice a new clean scent.
Ozone is the scent you are smelling. Ozone is a combination of three oxygen atoms. The Ionic Pro® Compact air purifying system utilizes an ionizing process which results in very low ozone emission.
The Ionic Pro® Compact ionic air purifier complies with U.S. safety requirements for low ozone emission (less than 50 parts per billion) and meets the UL867 standard for consumer products. UL867 is the U.L. standard for safety for electro-static air cleaners.
Individuals with a history of respiratory disease, asthma, heart disease, lung disease, breathing problems or concerns about ozone should ask their doctor whether the concentrations of ozone generated by this or other commercial ionic air purifiers are appropriate for their specific health needs.
