INTRODUCTION
LOCATION
Congratulations on your purchase of a Sunbeam 560
Air Cleaner. Your unit has been designed for years of 
continuous operation.
NOTE: This owner’s manual should be read tho-
roughly before your air cleaner is operated. 
Retain your owner’s manual for future reference.
HOW THE SUNBEAM 560 AIR 
CLEANER WORKS
Your air cleaner has a unique High Efficiency Cartridge (HEC) that combines four filters into one compact, disposable element for high efficiency cleaning 
and easy replacement of cartridge.
Polluted air enters into the air cleaner through the front 
grill. (Figure 1) As shown in Figure 2, the fan pulls in 
dirty air and the Pre-Filter (#l) traps large particles
(hair, lint, etc.). The smaller particles (dust, smoke,
pollen) are captured when the air passes through the 
2-stage filter. (#2 and #3) The air then passes through a 
Charcoal After-Filter 
hold odors. Next, the Negative Ion Generator 
releases negative ions into the air for extra air freshening. The cleaned air then passes back into the room
through the top grill. (Figure 1)

Remove and discard the plastic bag covering your air 
cleaner. Locate your air cleaner near an electrical 
outlet.
NOTE: DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD TO
Remember, the air cleaner must be placed so that air
can freely circulate into the front grill and out of the top 
grill. (Figure 1) Never place your air cleaner on soft
surfaces (such as beds, sofas or carpet) or next to
sources of heat (such as stove tops, ovens, etc.).
ABOUT NEGATIVE IONS
Negative ions, which occur naturally in our environ-
ment, are simply air molecules with a negative charge
that help to remove positively charged pollutants from
the air. However, when indoor air is cooled or recircu-
lated, the negative ions get stripped out of the air. The
negative ion generator in your air cleaner replenishes 
the negative ions in your home. These negative ions 
are attracted to pollutants and then to any grounded 
surface, e.g. walls.
OPERATION
Plug the cord into any standard household electrical 
outlet. (See data label on bottom of your air cleaner for 
electrical specifications and power consumption.)

Figure 3 is a diagram of the slide switch label. Initially,
run the unit on HIGH for 1 minute before switching to
the desired speed. The “FAN ONLY” position allows
you to operate your air cleaner without the Negative
Ion Generator engaged. When the Negative Ion Gen-
erator is engaged, the operating light will be illumi-
nated. (See the above section “About Negative Ions”
for more information.) Your air cleaner is designed for
continuous operation
when the air cleaner remains on constantly. For best
results, select “DAILY USE” setting.
