HOW THE SUNBEAM HEPA 2500  
AIR CLEANER WORKS  
The air around you is filled with thousands of particles  
of air pollution. Some of the pollutants (dust, smoke  
and lint) are visible to the naked eye, but most of the  
pollutants (pollen and bacteria, to name a few) are  
microscopic in size.  
Figure 2  
UNIT LOCATION  
Select the location for your air cleaner with an electri-  
cal outlet nearby. An example of locating your air  
cleaner is shown in Figure 3.  
Your true HEPA Filter is enclosed with a sealing label  
placed over the top of the collector assembly. This  
label provides a complete sealing of the HEPA Filter  
ensuring a 99.97% efficiency at removing common  
indoor air particles. Do not remove this label unless  
replacing the HEPA or Charcoal Filter.  
NOTE: DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD TO  
SUPPLY POWER TO YOUR AIR CLEANER.  
Your console air cleaner can be placed almost any-  
where as long as the air can freely circulate into the top  
front grill and out of the bottom front grill. (Figure 1)  
As polluted air is drawn into your console air cleaner  
(Figure 1), an Aluminum Pre-Filter strains out the  
larger particles of pollution. The air then passes  
through the cartridge air filter (HEPA Filter) where  
microscopic particles are collected.  
,
The now cleaned air then passes through a filter of  
activated carbon. Activated carbon acts like a sponge  
to help remove odors. (Figure 2) Having been cleaned  
three ways, the air returns to the room through the  
bottom front grill. (Figure 1)

OPERATION  
MAINTENANCE  
Plug the cord into any standard household electrical  
outlet. (See data label for electrical specifications and  
power consumption. This data label can be seen when  
the cabinet top is removed.)  
CARE OF CABINET  
You should treat the cabinet of your air cleaner as you  
would any other piece of fine furniture. A soft, damp  
cloth will keep it clean and attractive for many years.  
The front grill can be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner  
with a brush attachment.  
Turn the unit on by sliding the ON/OFF switch to the  
desired speed: “DAILY USE, MEDIUM or HIGH”. (Fig-  
ure 4) The air cleaner should be set on HIGH for 1  
minute before switching to desired speed to initially  
start-up the unit. Your air cleaner is designed for con-  
tinuous operation -- peak efficiency is obtained when  
the air cleaner remains on constantly. For best results,  
select “DAILY USE” setting.  
TO REMOVE HEPA FILTER ASSEMBLY  
Turn off the air cleaner and unplug it from the electri-  
cal power source.  
Remove the cabinet top by lifting up and remove the  
Sealing Label (enables 99.97% efficiency) from the top  
of the HEPA Filter Assembly. Do not discard Sealing  
Label. Lift out the collector assembly using the flip-up  
handle. (Figure 6)  
An operating light is located on the top right front grill  
and indicates that the unit is operating. (Figure 5)  
The HEPA Filter Assembly includes:  
Aluminum Pre-Filter, HEPA Filter and Charcoal  
After-Filter.  
The front filter (Aluminum) is the Pre-Filter. The HEPA  
Filter is the middle (large) filter, and the Charcoal After-  
Filter is in the back of the HEPA Filter Assembly. (Fig-  
ure 7)

TO REPLACE HEPA FILTER ASSEMBLY  
TO CLEAN PRE-FILTER  
Slide out Pre-Filter located in front of the Filter Assem-  
bly. Rinse thoroughly with clean warm water. Set aside  
to dry.  
NOTE: Use directions on the top of the HEPA Filter  
Assembly for proper placement of the filters  
into the assembly and for replacing the as-  
sembly into the unit.  
Using the handle, slide the HEPA Filter Assembly back  
into the cabinet. Aluminum Pre-Filter will face the front  
grill. Replace the Sealing Label provided with the new  
HEPA Filter over the opening containing the HEPA  
Filter Assembly.  
REPLACEMENT OF HEPA FILTER  
After about 12 months of collecting dirt, dust, pollen  
and other pollutants, the HEPA Filter of your unit will  
need to be replaced. The HEPA Filter cannot be  
cleaned. Use the enclosed reorder form to order  
replacement filters if not available from your retailer.  
TO REPLACE CABINET TOP  
Remove the Pre-Filter and Charcoal After-Filter from  
the HEPA Filter Assembly and place aside. The HEPA  
Filter can now be discarded. Using the directions on  
top of the new HEPA Filter, replace the aluminum  
Pre-Filter in slots provided in front of the HEPA Filter  
and replace the Charcoal After-Filter in the slots pro-  
vided in the back.  
Replace the cabinet top by positioning over the unit  
and placing on cabinet. (Figure 8) Be sure that the plas-  
tic ball and socket are engaged.  
Plug the cord into the electrical power source and  
select desired speed.

conditions. These filters are available in your retail  
Figure 8

After replacing the Charcoal Filter, return the Filter  
Assembly back into the cabinet. Reseal the top of the  
Filter Assembly with the Sealing Label removed pre-  
viously.
