en INTRODUCTION
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.

THE RIGHT LOCATION
THE RIGHT LOCATION
The BONECO U700 releases more than half a liter of water 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 stands 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 50 cm (20 inches).

PREPARATION OF THE DEMINERALIZATION CARTRIDGE |
|
DEMINERALIZATION CARTRIDGE PREPARATION
The BONECO U700 is supplied with a A7531 demineralization cartridge. The granules it contains has to soak for 24 hours before being used in operation in order to be most effective.
1. Unscrew the cartridge out of the appliance.
2.Place the cartridge with the cover into a typical household container filled with cold tap water and let it sit for 24 hours. The cartridge must be fully immersed in the water.
REPLACING THE DEMINERALIZATION CARTRIDGE
The cartridge has to be replaced every 2 to 3 months. In cases of very hard water, it may have to be replaced sooner. White dust around the appliance is a sure indication that the cartridge has run its course. You can obtain replacements from your BONECO specialist dealer or our online store at www.boneco.us
1.Soak the new cartridge for 24 hours as outlined on the left.
2.Remove the cover from the old cartridge and dispose of it with your regular household waste.
3.Screw the cover onto the new, freshly soaked cartridge.
4.Screw the cartridge back into the BONECO U700.
3.Screw the cartridge back into the BONECO U700.
4.Continue with the instructions on page 11.
PREPARING THE HYDRO CELL
1.Remove the protective foil from the Hydro Cell.
2.Rinse the new Hydro Cell for 30 seconds under cold tap water.
3.Put the new Hydro Cell into the water tank of the BONECO U700.

en HUMIDITY AND HUMIDIFIER
SAVE SETTINGS
The BONECO U700 saves the last-used settings when it 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
1.Tap the symbol multiple times, until the desired level appears on the display.
The symbol on the display shows which of the three levels (low/medium/high) has been selected:
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!
