TRUE HEPA FILTER
HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are
designed to remove up to 99.97% of airborne pollutants
at 0.3 microns or larger, from the air that passes through
them. These include tobacco smoke, household dust, pet
dander and pollen.
HIGH, MEDIUM AND LOW SPEED SETTINGS
For optimum air filtration, operate your Holmes®air
purifier continuously on the MEDIUM ( 2) setting. Its
rugged motor has been designed to give many years of
use. For quieter operation (such as in a bedroom), select
the LOW ( 1) setting. When high levels of air pollution
are present, select the HIGH ( 3) setting to quickly
circulate and filter the room air.
FILTER MONITOR
The filter monitor light eliminates guesswork by letting
you know when it is time to replace the filters.
BEFORE USE
1. Carefully unpack your Air Purifier.
2. Select a firm level place with no obstructions to the
air inlet or filtered air outlet.
3. If the filter is covered by a bag when shipped, remove
plastic bag before use and place filters into unit.
DO NOT POINT FILTERED AIR OUTLET TOWARDS WALL.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Plug into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
2. Select the desired operating speed from HIGH ( 3),
MEDIUM ( 2) or LOW ( 1) by moving the knob to
the desired setting.
3. To release negative ions into the filtered air, turn the
ionizer knob to ON ( ) and the light will illuminate.
For optimum air filtration, it is recommended to operate
the air purifier continuously. Its rugged motor has been
designed to give many years of use.
CLEANING/MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
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 rear air inlet grill can be removed and washed in
warm soapy water (not dishwasher safe). Dry before
replacing in the unit.
4. The filtered air outlet can be cleaned of dust with a
small, soft brush.
If the plug does not fit into the outlet, contact qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet.
This product is for use on 120 volts. DO NOT ALTER
THE PLUG IN ANY WAY.
CORD SAFETY
• The length of cord used on this appliance was
selected to reduce tangling or tripping hazards.
• 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
electrical rating of the air purifier (see rating label
marked on product).
• 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.
GET TO KNOW YOUR AIR PURIFIER
Your true HEPA air cleaner removes up to 99.97% of
airborne allergens as small as 0.3 microns, including
ragweed pollen, grass pollen, tree pollen, household dust,
dust mite debris, mold spores, pet dander and smoke
from the air passing through the filter.
IONIZER
This appliance has an optional ionizer feature which,
when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing
filtered air to help the air purification process.
What Are Ions?
Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative
charge. They exist naturally around us: in the air, water,
and ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless,
odorless, and harmless.
How Does The Ionizer Work?
Negative ions help air purification 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. These larger particles are
then more easily captured by the filter system.
Important Notes:
Your ionizer may produce an occasional popping or
cracking sound. This is normal and occurs when a small
buildup of ions is discharged.
After extended use, you may notice dust around the grills
or front panel. This is caused by negative ions exiting the
air outlet, evidence of the ionizer’s air cleaning
effectiveness. You can remove the dust with a soft brush
or clean, damp cloth.
Larger particles may be attracted to positively charged
surfaces throughout the home, like walls or floors.
• This may occur more frequently when the filter is
nearing the end of its useful product life and unable
to capture as many charged particles.
• Excessive amounts of pet dander, dust, or smoke may
decrease the life expectancy of the filter and
interfere with the ionization process.
To help prevent particles from attracting to surfaces
throughout your home:
• You may want to run the ionizer less often.
• Check the condition of the filter more frequently.
CAUTION: The ionizer in this appliance produces less
ozone than the UL* established limits of 50ppb. However,
in high concentrations, ozone can be harmful to birds and
small pets. To prevent ozone buildup, we suggest using
the ionizer in well ventilated areas with the fan on.

and ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless,
odorless, and harmless.
How Does The Ionizer Work?
Negative ions help air purification 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. These larger particles are
then more easily captured by the filter system.
Important Notes:
Your ionizer may produce an occasional popping or
cracking sound. This is normal and occurs when a small
buildup of ions is discharged.
After extended use, you may notice dust around the grills
or front panel. This is caused by negative ions exiting the
air outlet, evidence of the ionizer’s air cleaning
effectiveness. You can remove the dust with a soft brush
or clean, damp cloth.
Larger particles may be attracted to positively charged
surfaces throughout the home, like walls or floors.
• This may occur more frequently when the filter is
nearing the end of its useful product life and unable
to capture as many charged particles.
• Excessive amounts of pet dander, dust, or smoke may
decrease the life expectancy of the filter and
interfere with the ionization process.
To help prevent particles from attracting to surfaces
throughout your home:
• You may want to run the ionizer less often.
• Check the condition of the filter more frequently.
CAUTION: The ionizer in this appliance produces less
ozone than the UL* established limits of 50ppb. However,
in high concentrations, ozone can be harmful to birds and
small pets. To prevent ozone buildup, we suggest using
the ionizer in well ventilated areas with the fan on.

electrician to install the proper outlet.
This product is for use on 120 volts. DO NOT ALTER
THE PLUG IN ANY WAY.
CORD SAFETY
• The length of cord used on this appliance was
selected to reduce tangling or tripping hazards.
• 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
electrical rating of the air purifier (see rating label
marked on product).
• 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.
GET TO KNOW YOUR AIR PURIFIER
Your true HEPA air cleaner removes up to 99.97% of
airborne allergens as small as 0.3 microns, including
ragweed pollen, grass pollen, tree pollen, household dust,
dust mite debris, mold spores, pet dander and smoke
from the air passing through the filter.
IONIZER
This appliance has an optional ionizer feature which,
when turned on, releases negative ions into outgoing
filtered air to help the air purification process.
What Are Ions?
Ions are tiny particles that carry a positive or negative
charge. They exist naturally around us: in the air, water,
and ground. Both positive and negative ions are colorless,
odorless, and harmless.

Your ionizer may produce an occasional popping or
cracking sound. This is normal and occurs when a small
buildup of ions is discharged.
After extended use, you may notice dust around the grills
or front panel. This is caused by negative ions exiting the
air outlet, evidence of the ionizer’s air cleaning
effectiveness. You can remove the dust with a soft brush
or clean, damp cloth.
Larger particles may be attracted to positively charged
surfaces throughout the home, like walls or floors.
• This may occur more frequently when the filter is
