INTRODUCTION
en
Congratulations on your purchase of the BONECO U700.
This high-performance ultrasonic humidifier keeps the
humidity at a comfortable level at all times.
The BONECO U700 is designed for convenient, fully automated operation. However, you can adjust all of its features according to your preferences and requirements.
This manual shows you how you can create your own
comfortable climate.
VALUABLE INFORMATION ABOUT HUMIDITY
The right humidity is very important for our health. Dry
room air in the winter leads to skin that cracks and itches.
It makes your eyes and throat feel dry while significantly
affecting physical comfort. Not only does this affect
adults, it is especially true for infants, small children and
even pets. Dry mucous membranes in the winter also
make us more prone to colds and other infections.
The BONECO U700 makes these problems a distant
memory. Its intelligent automatic controls always keep
the humidity at the ideal level, even in large rooms with
an area of up to 92 square meters (1000 square feet).
You will not want to give up your newly gained comfort.
ITEMS INCLUDED

THE RIGHT LOCATION
THE RIGHT LOCATION
The BON ECO U700 releas es more than half a liter of wa ter
into the air per hour. This makes it important to set up the
appliance in the right location.
Do not place the BONECO U700 directly on the floor,
since the moisture from the mist can damage floor
surfaces such as parquet or delicate carpeting.
• Make sure that the appliance st ands about 30 centimeters (one foot) away from the closest wall.
• Do not direct the mist toward the wall, plants, furniture
or other objects in order to prevent water condensation
from damaging them. Maintain a distance of at least
50cm (20 inches).

left.

is switched off. However, if the appliance is disconnected
from the power supply for a few seconds, it will start in
the operating mode.
AUTO MODE
In mode the humidification is controlled automatically and the humidity is set to 50%. As soon as the humidity or the humidifier is manually adjusted, however,
the appliance leaves mode.
To return to mode, tap the symbol once.
The heater can be switched on or off without the appliance leaving mode. mode also remains active when setting the timer.
CONTROLLING HUMIDITY
The humidity can be set between 30 % and 70%. In the
“Co” setting (for “Continuous”), the humidifier runs regardless of the measured humidity. This means it does
not switch off until the tank is empty or the appliance is
switched off.
1. Tap the symbol. The current humidity indicator
starts flashing.
2. While the indicator is flashing, tap the symbol again,
until the desired humidity is set.
The value is applied after a few seconds. The indicator
stops flashing.
REGULATE THE OUTPUT

level appears on the display.

COMFORT FUNCTIONS AND MOOD LIGHT
SWITCHING THE HEATER ON AND OFF
The BONECO U700 is equipped with a heater that can be
turned on and off. It warms the outgoing mist up to approximately 104 °F (40 °C), so that the room temperature
stays at a comfortable level.
It takes a few minutes until the heater reaches its full
output.
1. Tap the symbol once to switch the heater on or off.
SWITCHING OFF THE MOOD LIGHT
The BONECO U700 is switched off in a two-step process
(see page 11).
1. Briefly tap the button once to switch off the blue
mood light. The appliance will remain running.
2. Tap the button again to switch the BONECO U700
into standby mode. Now the air will no longer be humidified and the display will turn off.
In dark environments (such as a bedroom at night),
the display's brightness is automatically reduced. This
means just turning off the mood light is enough to ensure
a good night's sleep undisturbed.
en
FRAGRANCE TRAY
Commercially available scented aromatic substances for
humidifiers can be added to the fragrance tray on the
back of the BONECO U700.
1. Briefly press the fragrance tray to unlock the drawer.
Never add the aromatic substance directly into the
water tank or water base; doing so will damage the
BONECO U700 and void the warranty!
