Congratulations on choosing the Ultrasonic humidifier
7135!
Did you know that dry room air:
• Causes the membranes in your respiratory system to
dry out, and also causes chapped lips and stinging
eyes?
• Encourages infections and illnesses of respiratory
system?
• Causes weariness, tiredness and poor concentration?
• Stresses household pets and house plants?
• Encourages the formation of dust and the electrostatic
charging of textiles made of synthetic fibers, carpets
and plastic flooring?
• Damages furnishings made of wood and parquet?
• Detunes musical instruments?
General information
A comfortable atmosphere indoors is reached with a relative humidity level between 40 and 60%. Your humidifier automatically controls the humidity level according
to desired setting. If the air is too dry, the humidifier will
automatically switch on. As soon as the desired humidity
level is reached, it will switch off.
Unpacking
• Carefully remove the humidifier from the box. Place
your hands underneath the product to pull it out of the
box (10).
• Warning: Do not take the unit out of the box by pulling
up on the tank handle - base may fall and will be damaged (11).
• Warning: The mist outlet is packed in a red bag inside
the box insert. Make sure that you remove the mist
outlet from the packaging (12).
• Remove the plastic bag from the humidifier.
• Observe the information given on the rating plate about
the voltage.
• Use the original packaging for storing the appliance if
you do not use the humidifier all year round.

Setting up
Finding the ideal location for your unit:
• Do not place the humidifier directly next to a heating
vent or on a floor with floor heating. The moisture of
the mist can damage the floor surface (6) (see Safety
Instructions).
• The unit should be placed in an elevated position (7),
e.g. on a table, chest, etc. at least 3 ft off the floor.
• The mist outlet must not be pointed directly at plants,
furniture, or other objects (13). Keep distance of at
least 20 inches (50cm).
• Soak the demineralization cartridge in a water bath
24 hours before using it (14). The granules have to
absorb water to reach maximum performance. If it is
soaked in the tank, make sure to exchange the water
and empty the water from the base before using the
humidifier.
• On average the demineralization cartridge should
be replaced every 2 – 3 months depending on your
water hardness. Some areas may need to replace the
cartridge sooner, some may last longer. The cartridge
must be exchanged at the latest after 6 months or the
unit does not reach its full performance anymore.
See «Replacement of the demineralization cartridge».
• Read the instructions under «Filling the Tank» for
adding water in the humidifier (15 and 16).
• Place the water tank onto the base.
• Insert the plug into the socket and switch on the
appliance using the on/off button (19).
• About 10 to 15 minutes after it is switched on the
device will reach its full output level.
• Make sure that the cable is not pinched anywhere (9).
Do not operate the humidifier if the cable is damaged
(2).

Do not use additives
Water additives (ethereal/essential oils, fragrances,
eucalyptus, water conditioners, etc.) must not be used!
Even a small amount can cause cracks in the material. The
material isn’t made for the use of such additives. One drop
is enough to damage the tank and as a consequence the
unit. Any use of such additives will void the manufacturer’s
warranty.

A) On / Off button
You can switch the unit on or off by pressing button A. This
button is also used to reset the cleaning indicator light (by
holding down).
B) Hygrostat (setting the humidity level)
By pressing button B you can set the desired humidity
level in %. A relative humidity between 40% and 60%
is recommended. The accuracy of measurement is +/- 5%.
The unit will switch off when the moisture level exceeds the
desired setting. The device does not switch off if the display is set to «Co» (continuous operation). During selection
the target value is displayed. The display will automatically
show the current value after a few seconds.
The mist output can be regulated by pressing button
D several times. If the red bars are displayed, you have
selected the highest level of mist output (symbol H).
E) Operation with water pre-heating
(warm mist)
Button E is used for switching the pre-heating on and off
(symbol I lights up). As a result, the water is pre-heated
to a temperature of 176 °F (80 °C) before entering the
nebulizer space. It takes approx. 10 to 15 minutes for the
water in the base to warm up. The mist now leaves the
humidifier at a pleasant temperature of 104 °F (40 °C). The
advantage of this is that the room temperature does not
drop and, in addition, it significantly improves the water
quality maintenance.
F) Automatic mode and Sleep mode
The automatic and sleep modes can be activated by pressing button F. By pressing the button once, the automatic
function is switched on (symbol J appears on the display),
maintaining the optimum humidity subject to the temperature. Control takes place by means of output quantity and
pre-set target value. If the sleep function is switched on
(the symbol K appears on the display), the target humidity
is 60%; the operation time is automatically set at 8 hours;
the heating is switched on. In addition, the output quantity is
also controlled subject to the difference between the target
value and the actual value.
The Timer cannot be changed in either mode. If other buttons are pressed, the unit will no longer be in auto or sleep
mode.
K) Sleep Mode Indicator
L) Empty indicator
The water level is easy to see, thanks to the transparent
water tank. The appliance also alerts you when the water
tank is empty. The empty indicator is illuminated (symbol L).
Please read the chapter «Filling the tank» for more information. The symbol L may stay illuminated for some seconds
with a refilled tank until the base is filled with water.
M) Cleaning indicator
If symbol M and «CLEAN» appear on the display, the appliance should be cleaned as recommended by the manufacturer. This symbol comes on automatically every 2 weeks,
depending on the level of use. The display can be reset
by holding down button A until the light disappears.

• Make sure main body is never submerged in water
(24)!
• The cleaning indicator still appears on the display after
cleaning. To reset it hold down the ON/OFF button until
the clean light stops flashing.
• Clean the inner parts with a soft cloth. Do not use any
solvents or aggressive cleaning agents to clean the
appliance (25).
• Only use the brush to clean the membrane. This should
be done once a week. Only use the soft-bristle portion
of the brush (26).
• Change the water in the tank at least once a week if
water is standing for more than a week.
Water quality maintenance
The Hydro Cell keeps humidifiers operating at their highest
level between recommended cleanings. Good for approximately one to two months, depending on the water quality,
the Hydro Cell ensures the humidifier’s functionality while
providing fresh humidification performance. It starts to
work as soon as it comes in to contact with water, even
if the unit is turned off. The Hydro Cell should be changed
every one to two months*. Look at picture 27/28 for the position of the Hydro Cell in the water tank of the unit. Switch
off the unit first. Contact your local retailer or check our
website www.boneco.us for reorder information.

Replacement of the demineralization
en
cartridge
The water tank is equipped with a demineralization cartridge.
This cartridge has to be replaced every 2 – 3 months. If
the water is very hard, it may be necessary to replace the
cartridge earlier. White dust around the device is a sure sign
that the cartridge needs replacing. Please note white dust
is not harmful. If white residue still forms around the device
after a new cartridge has been inserted, please make sure
that the water you are using is untreated. If the water flows
through a decalcification system – such as an ion exchanger
– (sodium is added to remove calcium) in the building before
it is used in the humidifier, salt can precipitate as white dust
around the device. The demineralization cartridge and or the
granules must be exchanged at the latest after 6 months or
the unit does not reach its full performance anymore.
Always unplug the unit before removing the
water tank. Do not touch the water in the base
during operation!
• Turn the plastic cup and cartridge over and shake until
all granules is in the cartridge (36).
• Remove the plastic cup and the pink styrofoam piece
from the cartridge (37) and retain for future use (the
refill granules consists of 3 refill bags) (38).
• Close the cartridge (39).
• Soak the demineralization cartridge in a water bath
24 hours before using it (42). The granules have to
absorb water to reach maximum performance. If it is
soaked in the tank, make sure to exchange the water
and empty the water from the base before using the
humidifier.
• Screw the cartridge on the water tank cap (43).
• Screw the cartridge on the bottom side of the water
tank, put the tank on the main body (44).
Placing granules in the center of the cartridge
allows them to escape in the unit or to clog the
unit. The unit will no longer operate properly and
the granules need to be cleaned out thoroughly.

the water tank cap!
• Open the cartridge (31).
• Throw the content into the waste (Attention! Disposed
granules can make the floor slippery!) (32).
• Place the enclosed pink styrofoam piece in the center
of the cartridge. Do not push it to the bottom as it will
be difficult to remove afterwards (33).
• Pour the contents of one refill granules bag into the
plastic cup that is included with the refill granules
packaging (34).
• Place the empty cartridge with the plug in the center
onto the plastic cup (35).
14
Option B: replace the whole cartridge
