Warnings  
Warning: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury when  
using any electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be  
observed, including the following:  
• This appliance operates at 110V AC and 50Hz or 60Hz only.  
• Connect to a properly grounded outlet only.  
• Use indoors only.  
• Before unplugging the unit from the outlet, turn off all the controls.  
• Do not unplug by pulling the cord. Grasp the plug itself, not  
the cord, when unplugging from an outlet.  
• Do not handle the plug or appliance with wet hands.  
• Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing.  
• Do not allow the appliance to be used as a toy. Close attention  
is necessary when the appliance is operated near children.  
• Use only as described in this user manual.

appliance is not working properly, or has been dropped,  
damaged, left outdoors or dropped into water, return it to  
a service center or to the original place of purchase.

Warnings  
• Do not pull, lift or carry by the power cord. Do not use the  
cord as a handle, close a door on the cord, or pull the cord  
around or against sharp edges or corners.  
• Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.  
• A damaged power cord must be replaced by qualified service  
personnel only. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the  
unit. Any attempt to open the unit will void the warranty and  
could lead to serious damage to the unit and/or personal injury  
to the user.  
• Do not put any object into openings. Do not continue to use  
with any opening blocked. Keep all openings free of dust, lint,  
hair or anything that may reduce airflow.  
• Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers and all parts of the body away  
from openings.  
• Do not operate the unit in areas where flammable or combus-  
tible products or vapors may be present.

Important Information – Please Read  
The collection grid has many edges and areas that can trap  
water. Ensure the grid is completely dry before re-inserting it into  
the unit. If it is not completely dry, the unit could be damaged.  
If water is used to clean the grid, please allow at least 24 hours  
for the collection grid to dry.  
This unit should not be located near a fireplace, whether or not  
the fireplace is actually in operation. Dust and soot from the  
chimney could be rapidly drawn through the Ionic Breeze and  
deposited on or around the unit.  
In rooms where candles or oil lamps are frequently burned, the  
smoke from these products will tend to stick to the outside of the  
Ionic Breeze. Avoid placing the Ionic Breeze in a location where  
it will be subjected to smoke from oil lamps or candles.  
In any area where this product will be subjected to heavy  
pollution or smoke, it will be necessary to clean the collection  
grid more frequently.  
If the unit begins to arc or make a “static-like” sound, turn the  
unit off, slide the collection grid out and slowly invert the unit  
several times. Replace the grid.

Frequently Asked Questions about OzoneGuard™  
What does OzoneGuard™ do?  
With the OzoneGuard in place, a significant portion of ground-  
level ozone inside the air purifier — including any trace levels of  
ozone by-product — is converted into oxygen before the cleaned  
air circulates back into the room.  
Why is the OzoneGuard™ smaller than the grill itself?  
The majority of the air output is directed toward the center of the  
grill and therefore a larger OzoneGuard isn’t necessary.  
Does the Ionic Breeze still have the Negative-Ion Feature™ option?  
Yes it does. The new OzoneGuard front grill does not affect the  
popular Negative-Ion Feature of the Professional Series™ Ionic  
Breeze® air purifiers. An emitter at the bottom of the new grill has  
replaced the ionizing wires inside the original grill. The feature  
itself works the same way as before.  
Please read this product instruction manual for important  
safety information and operating instructions.

Setup and Operation  
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a ground-  
ing-type plug that has a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only  
fit into a grounding-type power outlet. If the plug does not fit into  
the outlet, contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet.  
Do not alter the plug in any way.  
Place Ionic Breeze on a level surface,  
at least twelve inches from the wall  
and furniture. Plug into a grounded  
110V outlet. (Read warnings for details.)  
Switch the MODE CONTROL to the  
desired setting:  
12"  
SMALL: For small rooms or rooms  
where the door is usually closed.  
MEDIUM: For average sized rooms.  
LARGE: For large rooms and higher  
traffic areas.  
Mode Control  
These are recommended settings.  
Adjust to your own comfort level.

Setup and Operation  
Normal operation at all power  
Mode Control  
levels involves a programmed  
cycle of altering high and low  
air movement.  
To override the power control  
setting and let the unit run at  
maximum power for five minutes,  
press BOOST/IONS until the button  
turns blue.  
Boost/Ions  
Your previously selected power level  
resumes after the five minutes has elapsed.  
To activate the Negative-Ion Feature,  
press BOOST/IONS until the button  
turns green. This feature adds millions of  
negative ions to the airflow to freshen your  
indoor environment. To cancel, press the button again.  
Note: Use of this feature increases negative-ion output and may  
increase soot buildup near the product.

Cleaning the Collection Grid  
Clean the grid every one or two weeks. As a reminder, the clean-  
ing indicator light will turn green after two weeks. If the cleaning  
indicator light turns red, the unit has shut down because of exces-  
sive dirt or circuitry problems. In many cases, a thorough cleaning  
will return the unit to normal operation.  
Before cleaning, unplug the unit.  
Collection Grid  
Release Latch  
Remove the collection grid  
by releasing the latch and  
pulling the grid from the  
top of the unit.  
Use a dry or slightly damp  
towel or sponge to quickly  
wipe the dust from each of  
the three collection bars.  
2X  
Before replacing the grid,  
invert the entire unit two  
or three times.  
11  
 
Thorough Cleaning  
If the unit makes noise during operation, a thorough cleaning of  
the grid, grills and internal ionizing wires may be required.  
Unplug the unit before cleaning.  
Release the OzoneGuard front grill  
and back grill by lifting the blue release  
tabs on the bottom of the grills.  
To remove, slide the grill up.  
Note: The OzoneGuard cannot be  
detached from the front grill.  
The OzoneGuard has sharp edges;  
use caution when cleaning.  
Use a hair dryer to blow dust from the  
interior, or a vacuum to remove the dust.  
The grills can be cleaned under a spray  
of warm water. Rinse and allow to dry  
before returning to unit.  
CAUTION: Do not use the product if wires  
are broken or either grill appears damaged.  
Call 1-800-344-5555 to order a replacement grill.

Release-Tab  
 
Additional Information  
The exterior of the unit can be cleaned using a cloth or sponge  
and a solution of one part household bleach to five parts water or  
any bleach-based spray cleaner.  
Before plugging the unit back into an outlet, allow the surface to  
dry completely.  
The unit will not function while the collection grid is removed or  
either of the grills are removed.  
The majority of collected particles will gather on the removable  
stainless steel grid. Over time, debris will accumulate inside the  
unit. Remove the front and rear grills to access the inside.  
(See section titled “Thorough Cleaning.”)  
The Ionic Breeze® complies with U.S. safety standards for low  
ozone emission (less than 50 parts per billion). We recommend  
that individuals with a history of respiratory disease consult with  
their doctor about possible heightened sensitivity to very low ozone.
