PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE  
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS.  
PRE-OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
1. After removing the unit from the box, remove  
the plastic covering from the unit.  
2. Select a firm level place where there are no  
obstructions to the air inlet (front grill) or filtered  
air outlet.  
3. Remove the inlet grill by pulling the grill towards  
you.  
1. Every few weeks check the condition of the  
pre-filter.  
With proper care and use, this Bionaire™  
air purifier will give you fresh, clean air  
for many years.  
2. Remove the inlet grill. If the foam pre-filter has  
collected a noticeable amount of dust, remove  
it from the inlet of the grill and wash it in warm  
soapy water. Rinse and dry the pre-filter thoroughly  
before replacing it in the inlet of the grill.  
3. With the inlet grill removed, remove the HEPA  
cartridge and dispose in the dustbin. DO NOT  
try to wash and re-use the HEPA filter. Replace  
with a new HEPA filter-BAPF30 removing the  
protective plastic bag before inserting into the  
air purifier.  
4. Align the clips on the side of your HEPA filter with  
the rails on the inside of the unit. Gently slide  
the filter onto the rails.  
5. The filter clip should easily slide onto the filter  
hang tabs. Do not use force while attaching the  
filter clip to the filter. Align the clip on the side of  
your HEPA filter with the rails on the inside of  
the unit.  
NOTE: Before reading these instructions, please  
view the corresponding illustrations.

HOW THE AIR PURIFIER WORKS  
Dirty, dust laden air is drawn through the back of  
the air purifier and through the multi-stage filtration  
system.  
1. The carbon filter will help clear odours making  
the air cleaner and fresher.  
2. The HEPA filter entraps 99% of all smaller visible  
and non-visible particles down to 2 microns in  
size.  
4. Remove both HEPA filters by gripping on both  
sides and pulling forward.

5. Remove protective plastic bag from each filter  
cartridge. The filter clip can only be attached  
to the hang tabs on the filter one way (see fig 3).  
The filter clip should easily slide onto the filter  
hang tabs. Do not use force whilst attaching  
the filter clip to the filter. Align the clip on the  
HEPA filter with the rails on the inside of the unit.  
NOTE: The pleated material and rubber gasket  
should be facing towards the unit when applied.  
6. Replace the inlet grill by sliding back on to the  
unit. Make sure that it snaps securely into position  
(the grill only goes on one way).

unit. Make sure that it snaps securely into position  
(the grill only goes on one way)  
NOTE: Do not point outlet towards wall.  
Ioniser  
Your Bionaire™ Air Purifier has an independently  
controlled ioniser, which when turned on, releases  
negative ions into the outgoing filtered air. Ions  
are tiny particles that carry either a positive or  
negative charge. These ions exist naturally all  
around us in the air, water and ground. Both positive  
and negative ions are colourless, odourless and  
completely harmless.  
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
1. Plug into a suitable 220 – 240V electrical outlet.  
2. Select the required operating Speed: Hi (  
),  
NOTE: Do not point outlet towards wall.

to the appropriate setting.

Negative ions help the air purification process by  
attaching themselves to very small airborne particles  
in the room. These particles take on a negative  
charge and may join with positively charged particles,  
such as dust, pollen, smoke and pet dander to form  
larger particles that are then more readily captured  
by the filter system, or they may be attracted to  
positively charged surfaces like walls or floors.  
4. The ioniser will not work unless the unit is running.  
REPLACEMENT FILTERS  
5. For optimum air filtration, it is recommended to  
operate the air purifier continuously. Its rugged  
motor is designed to give many years of service.  
6. For continuous use it is recommended to operate  
the air purifier at the Medium ( ) setting. For  
quieter operation or use in a bedroom, select  
BAPF30 HEPA Filter (usage 2 pcs)

pollution are present, select the HI ( ) setting  
to quickly circulate clean filtered air.  
This is from the ionisation effect caused by the  
negative ions exiting from the air outlet.This dust  
does not come from the air output, but is drawn  
out of the uncleaned air going past the air outlet.  
This is additional evidence of the air cleaning  
effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be  
easily removed with a clean, dampened cloth or  
soft brush.  
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE  
1. Turn the air purifier off and unplug it before cleaning.  
2. The outside of the air purifier can be cleaned  
with a soft, clean dampened cloth.  
3. The filtered air outlet can be cleaned of dust  
with a small, soft brush.  
4. If you wish to clean the inside of the air purifier,  
please only use a dry, soft cloth to wipe it down.  
NOTE: it is important to change the HEPA filter  
at recommended intervals. Using the ioniser in  
conjunction with dirty filters may result in dirty
