WARNING

UVC BULB & ACTIVEPURE®CELL
FILTERS
Aerus HEPA technology makes the Beyond Guardian Air incredibly quiet. Units come with one HEPASilent™ particle filter (installed).
The Aerus HEPA particle filter is made of polypropylene, which mechanically filters out airborne particles (dust, pollen, pet dander, mold
spores and other airborne particles). To maximize filter eectiveness, particles are negatively charged before reaching the filter.
For optimal performance Aerus recommends that you replace filter at least every 6–12 months, depending on usage.
NOTE: Use only Aerus HEPA particle filters to ensure proper functioning and to qualify your unit for full warranty coverage.
MAINTENANCE
Our air purifiers are designed to help improve indoor air with minimum impact on the environment.
The Aerus®HEPA particle filter is made of polypropylene, an eco-friendly plastic. Our filter contains no aluminum, triclosan or other
chemical additives.
All major parts are made from high-quality galvanized steel, not plastic. The steel housing is noise-muling, providing quiet operation. The
external parts have been powder coated for endurance and environmental protection.
The Beyond®Guardian Air is energy ecient. From lowest to highest speed, it uses from 23 to 80 watts — no more than a lightbulb.
Aerus air purification systems are built for years of use.
KEEP YOUR BEYOND GUARDIAN AIR LOOKING GOOD AND WORKING WELL
The Beyond Guardian Air features award-winning design, materials and workmanship.
Keep your unit in top condition with these cleaning tips:
• Always unplug unit before cleaning
• Wipe the exterior with a soft, clean, damp cloth
• Vacuum the small inlets on each end panel with a soft brush attachment
• Clean inside the filter chamber by opening the front door of the unit and opening the door of the filter
chamber (right-hand side)
• Never clean with gasoline, chemical solvents or corrosive materials — they may damage the surface
