IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WHEN USING ELECTRICAL PRODUCTS, ESPECIALLY WHEN CHILDREN ARE PRESENT, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING DANGER – TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:

• Always unplug the air purifier from the electrical outlet immediately after using and before cleaning or replacing filters.
• Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
• Always place the air purifier on a firm, level surface.
• Always place the air purifier at least six (6) inches away from walls and three (3) feet from heat sources such as stoves, radiators, or heaters.
