When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and injury to persons, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.

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

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

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 inch away from the wall
for best results.

to children. NEVER use humidifier in a closed room,
particularly where a child may be sleeping, resting, or

heed this warning may cause personal injury. Be sure to
unplug the unit by pulling on the plug and not the cord.
