All servicing should be performed by qualified personnel only. · WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, DO NOT use this air cleaner with any solid-state speed control device. · DO NOT place anything on top of unit. · The ionizer may cause a static charge to build up on the air output grill. A static-charged electric shock may be felt if the unit is not properly grounded. To avoid a shock, plug the unit's three-prong plug into a grounded outlet, or properly install a ground adapter as described in this manual. The shock will not occur if the ionizer is off. RADIO FREQUENCY COMPLIANCE INFORMATION This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Modifications not authorized by the manufacturer may void user's authority to operate this device. PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION THIS PRODUCT IS EQUIPPED WITH A 3-PRONG PLUG. This product is for use on 120 volts. The cord has a plug (A) as shown. An adapter (C) is available for connecting three-blade grounding-type plugs to two-slot receptacles (B).

The adapter should not be used if a three-slot grounded receptacle is available. The Holmes Group, Inc. Consumer Service Department 13052 Jurupa Avenue Fontana, CA 92337 DO NOT DEFEAT THE SAFETY PURPOSE OF THIS POLARIZED PLUG IN ANY WAY. CORD AND PLUG INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The length of cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer 14 3 BAP2000/200105EM1 P.qxd 5/20/05 16:04 Page 7 cord. 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 cleaner. 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. Thank you for choosing a Bionaire® air cleaner. To ensure the best performance from your air cleaner, please read and save the following instructions. IONIZER Your Air Cleaner has an independently controlled ionizer, which, when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air. Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative charge. These ions exist naturally around us, in the air, water and the ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless, odorless and completely harmless. 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. You may also note after extended use, that dust may have collected around the grills or front panel. This is from the ionization affect caused by the negative ions exiting from the air outlet. This is additional evidence of the air cleaning effectiveness of negative ions. The dust can be easily removed with a clean, damp cloth or soft brush. NOTE: It is important to clean the PERMAtechTM filter at the recommended intervals. Using the ionizer in conjunction with dirty filters may result in dirty particles exiting the air cleaner and being attracted to walls, carpets, furniture or other household objects. These dirty particles may prove very difficult to remove. AIR CLEANER SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS 1. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or mechanical functions on this unit.

Air Quality Sensor ­ Uses an advanced infrared optical system to constantly detect tiny airborne particles in the air around the Galileo® Wireless Air Quality Center, such as pollen and dust. It displays the air quality conditions using a series of LED lights glowing red when high levels of particles are present and green when air quality is improved. Advanced Communication Technology ­ Radio frequency technology sends continuous signals between air cleaner and Galileo® Wireless Air Quality Center. 4 Bionaire®, the Bionaire logo®, Galileo® , the Galileo logoTM and PERMAtechTM are trademarks of The Holmes Group, Inc. or its subsidiary. 13 BAP2000/200105EM1 P.qxd 5/20/05 16:04 Page 9 TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Unit will not operate Solution · Check to make sure the unit is plugged in · Check to make sure the unit is on by pressing the power button · If the Filter Service Indicator is red, the PERMAtechTM filter should be cleaned. · Check the filter to make sure they are in good condition. · Check to insure nothing is blocking air inlet and filtered air outlet. · Make sure the Galileo® Wireless Air Quality Center is synchronized with the air cleaner by following synchronization instructions. · The Air Cleaner and Galileo® Wireless Air Quality Center can be re-synchronized by holding down the ON/OFF button on both the Air Cleaner and the Galileo® Wireless Air Quality Center at the same time for 5 seconds until you hear a rapid beeping sound. · Chances are there are low levels of airborne particles around the sensor. This should not be a concern. · Remove the plastic bags from the filters if present. Sensor Control Mode ­ When set to Sensor Control auto mode, the sensor measures your indoor air quality and adjusts the fan speed automatically to provide optimum filtration. It also helps conserve energy by only operating the fan at higher speeds when needed. Remote Operation ­ The function of the Galileo® Wireless Air Quality Center is similar to a remote control. From across the room, you can operate your air cleaner ­ you can change speed settings, turn off appliance or set to sensor control. Decreased airflow Programmable Controls ­ Gives you the flexibility to program your air cleaner to turn on and off at your convenience. Clock/Alarm Mode ­ Convenient clock and alarm mode make the Galileo® Wireless Air Quality Center multifunctional; and it replaces tabletop or nightstand clock. Also features a 10 minute snooze alarm.
