WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, ESPECIALLY WHERE CHILDREN ARE PRESENT, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE BASIC PRECAUTIONS TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND INJURY TO PERSONS:

1.Read all instructions before using the appliance.

2.To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance directly into a 120 V AC electrical outlet.

3.Keep the cord out of heavy traffic areas. To avoid fire hazard, NEVER put the cord under rugs, near heat registers, radiator, stoves, or heaters.

4.DO NOT place humidifier near heat sources such as stoves, radiators, and heaters. Do locate your humidifier on an inside wall near an electrical outlet. The humidifier should be at least 4" away from the wall for best results.

5.NEVER place humidifier in an area where it is accessible to children. NEVER use humidifier in a closed room, particularly where a child may be sleeping, resting, or playing (a closed room may result in excessive humidity).

6.WARNING: DO NOT attempt to refill humidifier without first unplugging the unit from it’s electrical outlet. Failure to heed this warning may cause personal injury. Be sure to pull the plug and not the cord.

7.Never place anything over moisture outlet when the unit is running.

8.NEVER drop or insert any object into any openings.

9.DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after the appliance malfunctions, or if it has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to manufacturer for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.

13.DO NOT allow the Moisture Outlet to directly face the wall. Moisture could cause damage, particularly to wallpaper.

THESE IMPORTANT

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Thank you for choosing a Holmes Cool Mist console humidifier. To ensure the best performance from your humidifier, please read and save the following instructions.

Consumer Safety Information

Note: This is an electrical appliance and requires attention when in use.

Note: If moisture forms on the walls or windows of the room, turn off the humidifier. The room already has plenty of humidity and additional moisture may cause damage.

Cord and Plug Installation Safety Instructions

The length of cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the humidifier. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it

will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

HOW COOL MIST WORKS

Your Holmes Cool Mist humidifier draws dry air through the rear air intake grill area. This air is then passed through a moisture–laden wick filter, which retains the minerals and deposits in the water. The resulting moist air is directed back into the room from the top air grill.

NOTE: This humidification system provides a cool, invisible moisture output. It is normal not to see the mist.

NOTE: A humidity level below 20% can be unhealthy and uncomfortable. The recommended humidity level is between 40%-50%.
