THIS PRODUCT IS EQUIPPED WITH A POLARIZED PLUG (a plug having one blade wider than the other). If it still does not fit, contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet. The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer 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 purifier. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or table-top where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over. Its versatility and quiet operation make this unit perfect for both the home and the office. Your Air Purifier has an ionizer, which, when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing filtered air. 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. [. . . ] The filter will be resting against the sealing foam and on the filter support ledges. Pivot the top of the filter towards the unit and push it into position. Remove your new Holmes® air purifier from its protective plastic bag. Choose a suitable location, tabletop or shelf ensuring that both the air intake and exit are unobstructed. [. . . ]
