READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

In order to prevent the risk of fire, electric shock, personal injury or damage to property, follow these instructions carefully. When using electric appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.

If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the air purifier. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over. Route the electrical or extension cord clear of furniture to prevent damage from pinching.

wWARNING

About Your Air Purifier

The air purifier functions as an air cleaner by helping to disinfect airborne bacteria and removing particulates from the air.

The air is cleaned in three stages:

1. A fan draws air through the intake

grille on the front of the air purifier. Then it passes through the carbon pre-filter which traps large dust particles and reduces odors.

2. The white HEPA filter then removes particles as small as 0.3 microns from the air at 99.97% effectiveness.

3. The clean air is then exposed to germicidal-grade ultraviolet light to reduce the level of airborne bacteria, molds, and viruses. The purified air is then released through the outlet grille on the top of the unit.

* Each air purifier is designed to filter the room five times per hour at high

speed. Factors such as room shape and ceiling height can affect this rate. It is normal that the air flow will be reduced as the filters become clogged. See “Checking the Filters” on page 13 for more information.

To Order Replacement Parts

Replacement bulbs may be available where the air purifier was purchased or can be obtained directly from Hamilton Beach.

How to Assemble and Use

IMPORTANT: Your Hamilton Beach air purifier is designed for easy use and maintenance. Make sure that the UV bulb, HEPA filter, and carbon pre-filter are properly installed before use.

Selecting the Proper Location

To prevent the risk of personal injury or damage to the air purifier and provide the best possible performance of your air purifier, follow the placement guidelines below:

DO NOT:

• Do not stand, sit, or place any

objects on the air purifier. It is not designed to support additional weight.

• Do not block the air intake and outlet grilles with drapes, curtains, or blinds. This may cause reduced performance.

• Do not use in a kitchen, garage, or area with grease, oil or chemicals such as solvents or insecticides.

• Do not place on or near heat sources such as stoves, radiators, or heaters, or in direct sunlight.

• To reduce electrical noise and interference, do not place on or near, or plug into the same outlet as TVs, baby monitors, or cordless phones.

DO:

• Place the air purifier on a flat, stable surface.

• Place the air purifier near an electrical

outlet where it is out of the way. Make sure that the air purifier and the cord do not present tripping hazards.

• Select a central location with

adequate air circulation.

• Turn off and unplug the air purifier

before moving or servicing it, or if it will not be used for several days.

• Route the electrical cord clear of

furniture to prevent damage from pinching.

Before First Use

Be sure to remove all packing materials. The filters and UV bulb are packed in plastic bags inside the air purifier for shipping.
