F EATURE OF Y OUR S UNBEAM A IR C LEANER
This Sunbeam Air Cleaner is equipped with the following features:
TRUE MEPA FILTER
Certified to capture 99.97% of all airborne particles .3 microns (3/1000 of a human hair
in size) or larger.
CUARCOAL PRE-Filter
Helps eliminate odors and rejuvenates stale air.
fllTER CHECK REMINDER LIGHT
Reminds you to check to see if your filter needs replacement.
IONIZER
Provides additional assistance in removing airborne particles. An added stage of filtration
to further clean the room. The ionizer negatively charges small particles not captured
by the HEPA filter as they leave the Air Cleaner. These tiny charged negative particles
will combine with other larger positively charged particles that can then be filtered out
of the air through the Air Cleaner.
CLEANING CAPACITY
Your Air Cleaner has the capacity to process the amount of air contained in a 160 square
foot room every 10 minutes (Model 2543) or 7 minutes (Model 2544) on the high fan
speed setting. Your Air Cleaner has a total of four fan speed settings, including an
extra-quiet sleep setting. Adjust fan settings as needed. The sleep setting will be the
quietest setting but will also be the lowest performing in terms of the capacity of air cleaned.

OPERATING YOUR SUNBLAM@ AIR CLEANER
1. Place your Air Cleaner near the center of the room or in an area where the unit
can operate without impediments to airflow.
2. Experiment with the location and fan speed settings on your unit. If you feel that
too many allergen particles are still present after running the unit at a low fan speed
(SLEEP, Low OR ODIUM), try increasing the fan speed to medium or high. You can also
try repositioning the unit in your room. If you feel that your home’s air needs constant
cleaning, e.g., during high pollen count days, you should run the unit 24 hours a day.
C~unonc Individuals with respiratory problems should consult with their physician
regarding use of an Air Cleaner as part of a treatment program.

WHY USE AN AIR CLEANER?
Many doctors and health professionals include the use of HEPA Air Cleaners as part of
an overall program intended to reduce indoor airborne allergens and help control allergy
and asthma symptoms. Below you will find helpful suggestions to aid you and your
family in minimizing your exposure to these common allergens.
ALLERGENS INYOUR HOME
The types of allergens and the level of allergens in your home may vary widely
depending on the environment (differentparts of the co&): Seasons offheyear; etc.),
the age of your home, the activity level within your home, and the presence of pets.

ihe size ofa human hair!). Your Sunbeam Air Cleaner contains a True-HEPA filter
certified to capture 99.97% of all particles 0.3 microns or larger.
