Owner’s Guide
For Model 51130 Series Air Cleaner
The Science of Clean Air®

PLEASE READ AND SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS
AIR CLEANER.
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before operating the air cleaner.
2. Place air cleaner where it is not easily knocked over by persons in the household.
3. Always turn the air cleaner to the OFF position and unplug when not in use.
4. To disconnect the air cleaner, first turn speed control to OFF position, grip the plug
and pull it from the outlet. Never pull by the cord.
5. Do not use any product with a damaged cord or plug or if product malfunctions, is
dropped or damaged in any manner. Keep the cord away from the heated surfaces.
6. Do not use air cleaner outdoors.
7. Never use air cleaner unless it is fully assembled.
8. Do not run power cord under carpets, and do not cover with throw rugs. Arrange
cord such that it will not be tripped over.
9. Do not use air cleaner where combustible gases or vapors are present.
10.Do not expose the air cleaner to rain, or use near water, in a bathroom, laundry
area or other damp location.
11. The air cleaner must be used in its upright position.
12.Do not allow foreign objects to enter ventilation or exhaust opening as this may
cause electric shock or damage to the air cleaner. Do not block air outlets or
intakes.
13.Locate air cleaner near power outlet and avoid using an extension cord.
14.The air cleaner has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
risk of shock, this plug is intended to fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature.
15. A loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and
a distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn
outlet.
16.Do not sit, stand or place heavy objects on the air cleaner.
17. Disconnect power supply before servicing.
WARNING: To Reduce The Risk of Fire or Electric Shock, Do Not Use This Air
Cleaner With Any Solid-State Speed Control Device.
Important Safety Instructions

Congratulations
You now own a quality portable HEPA air cleaner that has been engineered and
crafted for your satisfaction.
Our Consumer Relations representatives will be pleased to help with any questions
or concerns you may have about your Honeywell air cleaner. Please call our
Consumer Relations Dept. at [phone] for assistance.
For Best Performance
We recommend that you operate your Honeywell air cleaner 24 hours a day
because indoor air can be quickly contaminated by activity in a room and
infiltration of outside air. While all the air in a room will not be processed by
the air cleaner, the more air circulated through the filter, the more filtered air
returned to the room. Portable air cleaners will be much more effective in
rooms where all doors and windows are closed.
The Honeywell HEPA air cleaner is ready to begin cleaning air as soon as it is
removed from the carton and plugged in. Because it circulates air in a 360
degree pattern around the air cleaner, it can be placed on the floor in almost any
location. However, for best performance the air outlet slot should not be blocked
for at least 1 meter (three feet) in all directions.
Due to the large volume of air drawn towards the air cleaner, surrounding areas
should be cleaned and/or vacuumed frequently to prevent buildup. This may help
keep your home cleaner and may extend the life of your pre-filter. If the unit is
placed on light colored carpeting, a small mat or rug should be used to ease
cleaning and prevent any permanent staining. This is particularly important in
homes with heavier contamination from smoking or fireplaces.
Model 51130 Series
The Honeywell 51130 air cleaner is a 3
speed air cleaner operated by moving the
speed control knob on the top cover from the
“OFF” position to the “super” position. Allow
the unit to operate for a few seconds at
“super”, then leave the control knob in the
“super” position for faster, powerful room
cleaning, or move the knob to a lower setting
for quieter operation.

Operation
Step 1: Inspect Air Cleaner upon removal from its container. Remove and discard
any packaging material.
Step 2: Place the air cleaner on a flat, level, unobstructed surface. IF USING THE
IONIZER, DO NOT PLACE THE AIR CLEANER WITHIN THREE FEET OF
ANY COMPUTER OR MAGNETICALLY SENSITIVE DEVICES SUCHAS
FLOPPY DISKS OR TAPES.
Step 3: Make sure that speed control is set to the OFF position. Plug in air cleaner.
Step 4: Set speed control to the “super” position. Allow the unit to operate for a few
minutes at “super”, then leave the control knobs in the “super” position for
faster, more powerful room cleaning, or move the knob to a lower setting for
quieter operation. Set Ionizer control to desired setting, O (Ionizer OFF) or I
(Ionizer ON).

The Ionizer charges particles in the air which may enhance the air cleaner’s
performance.

Filter Replacement Reminders
Filter Change Schedule: Pre-filter: Replace every 3 months
HEPA filter: Replace every 1-3 years depending on use
Upon start up of your air cleaner and upon every pre-filter replacement, roll the
Pre-filter Change Calendar ahead 3 months to indicate when the next filter
replacement is necessary (Fig.1).
Upon start up of your air cleaner and upon every HEPA filter replacement, roll the
HEPA Filter-Change Calendar ahead 2 years depending on use (use the month
wheel on the left and the year wheel on the right) to indicate when filter replacement
is necessary (Fig. 2).
Fig. 2Fig. 1
The only two parts requiring any service are the activated carbon pre-filter
and the HEPA filter. No tools are needed. To change either filter,
disassemble the unit as described below.
NOTE: Neither the pre-filter nor the HEPA filter are washable.
Step 1: Turn the Air Cleaner off and unplug from the wall outlet.
Step 2: To open, gently place the air cleaner on its side and unscrew the
locking handle counter-clockwise to release the BASE from the air
cleaner.
Step 3: Remove the BASE.
Step 4: Remove the filter assembly (consisting of the HEPA and pre-filter)
from the internal chamber.
Step 5: Locate the seam of the pre-filter and carefully separate the
fastener on the seam from the pre-filter and remove the pre-filter from the
HEPA filter.
Step 6: Discard used filter(s) being replaced. Remove any packaging
and plastic from replacement filter(s). If applicable, see pre-filter
sizing instructions included inside the Universal Pre-filter box
(model 38002).
Step 7: Carefully wrap the pre-filter around the HEPA filter so that the
ends meet. Fasten the ends together with the strap fastener.
Step 8: Place the whole filter assembly into the product chamber.
Close the product by replacing the base and tightening the locking handle.
NOTE: The HEPA filter assembly was designed to easily fit into the power head without
any orientation; there is no top or bottom to the HEPA filter.
Step 9: Turn the air cleaner upright, plug into wall socket and turn on.

If you store your Honeywell HEPA air cleaner for more than 30 days,
we recommend:
•Remove both the primary HEPAfilter and the activated carbon pre-filter from the unit.
•Discard the pre-filter.
• Wrap the HEPA filter in an air-tight plastic bag or plastic wrap. Be sure that the
filter is totally sealed.
• To restore the air cleaner to service, unwrap the HEPA filter, install a new
activated carbon pre-filter, and replace both filters in the air cleaner.
(See "How to Change the Filters" section for proper installation.)
Storage
• Start on highest speed for a few minutes, then adjust to desired speed.
• Check to make sure that the power cord is correctly connected to the outlet.
•Test that the outlet is functioning properly using another appliance or lamp.
•Check the fuse or circuit breaker. The outlet may be overloaded if other appliances
are also in use. Determine and correct the cause of the overload.
• If none of the above procedures restore operation, return your unit to the store or if the
store's return policy does not allow, return the complete unit per the instructions in the
warranty section of this owner's guide. Do not attempt to repair the unit yourself. Doing
so may cause damage or personal injury and the warranty does not cover damage
resulting from unauthorized attempts to repair or from any use not in accordance with
this manual.
