Section 2: About Your AirTamer

Your AirTamer™ A302 uses advanced ionization technology to protect you from

super-small, atomic-sized particles, such as bacteria, mold and viruses, which

are often the most hazardous to your health. Emitting a constant stream of

healthy negative ions, AirTamer causes pollutants in the air to become

negatively charged, forcing these pollutants from your personal space and

creating cleaner, healthier air to breath everywhere you go. AirTamer is

completely safe to leave on as long as you like – even 24 hours a day.

The AirTamer™ A302 is a travel ionic air purifier designed for advanced air purification, protecting users from super-small, atomic-sized particles such as bacteria, mold, and viruses. It operates by emitting a constant stream of healthy negative ions into the air. These negative ions attach themselves to airborne pollutants, negatively charging them. Since all negatively charged particles repel each other, they are forced away from the user's personal breathing space and attracted to the closest positively charged surface (like a chair, table, wall, or clothing), rather than entering the respiratory system. This process creates a cleaner, healthier air zone for the user to breathe.

The device is intended for personal use and is most effective within approximately three feet of the unit. It is designed to be safe for continuous operation, even 24 hours a day, due to its lack of moving parts and low power consumption.

Usage Features:

The AirTamer A302 offers versatile usage options to suit various situations:

Activation: To turn the unit on, the user slides the ON/OFF button to the ON position. A blue light will gently blink to indicate that power is on and the unit is actively purifying the air.
Wearing Options:
- Suspended From Your Neck: The unit can be worn around the neck using its unique conductive cord. For optimal performance, the conductive cord should touch the user's skin, as this enhances negative ion production.
- Clipped To Clothing: It can be clipped to a shirt, blouse, or pocket using the integrated pocket/shirt clip. If clipped, suspending the conductive cord from the neck (with the cord touching the neck) can improve ion flow.
Stationary Placement: The unit can also be placed on a nearby table, seat, or nightstand. When placed on a surface, it should be in an upright position with the negative ion emitter facing up, or on its back with the emitter facing the user. To improve ion generation in this mode, the conductive cord should be placed behind the unit, covering as much of the table as possible by forming a large circle or spreading it out.
Conductive Cord: The device includes a unique conductive cord that is permanently attached. This cord incorporates a safety "break away" feature, allowing it to disconnect from the unit if it gets caught, preventing potential damage or injury. The length of the conductive cord can be adjusted by pulling the plastic length adjustment clip up or down.
Negative Ion Emitter: The negative ion emitter should always be pointed towards the user's face during use for maximum effectiveness. Users should avoid allowing the negative ion emitter to touch their skin or any other conductive material, as this will temporarily turn the unit off.
Deactivation: When finished using the device, the user slides the ON/OFF button to the OFF position.

Maintenance Features:

Maintaining the AirTamer A302 is straightforward and involves a few simple steps:

Battery Installation and Replacement: The unit is powered by two CR2025 coin cell batteries.
1. To install or replace batteries, the user slides off the battery cover.
2. Two CR2025 coin cell batteries are inserted into the battery compartment with the positive (+) side facing up.
3. A new set of batteries provides approximately 180 hours of continuous cleaning.
4. The flashing blue "ON" indicator will stop blinking when it's time to replace the batteries, signaling low battery power.
Exterior Cleaning:
1. Before cleaning, the unit must be turned off.
2. The exterior should be gently wiped with a soft cloth moistened with warm water or mild detergents only. Harsh solvents or chemicals should not be used for cleaning.
3. After wiping, all moisture must be removed with a soft, dry cloth.
4. It is crucial to allow the exterior to dry completely before turning the AirTamer back on.

The AirTamer A302 is designed for ease of use and minimal maintenance, providing a convenient and effective solution for personal air purification on the go. It does not produce measurable amounts of ozone and is designed not to interfere with electronic equipment. However, pacemaker patients, children under 10 years of age, and individuals with respiratory or heart/lung conditions should consult a physician before use.
