ASSEMBLY
CIGAR OASIS ULTRA comes in two main pieces that easily assemble for placing in your humidor. The silver piece is the control unit, the black piece is a refillable/replaceable water cartridge. The water cartridge, which comes prefilled, must be attached to the control top before use.
To attach the cartridge, remove all protective plastic packaging from the control top and the cartridge. Align the tabs on the left side of the cartridge when placing on control unit. Press firmly on right side of cartridge until it locks into place.
Refilling the Cartridge
Fill a bowl with distilled water only and
submerge the cartridge in it for 4 minutes.
Take out the cartridge and let it stand on the countertop for another minute. At the sink, empty all remaining water out of the cartridge so only damp foam remains.** No water
should drip out when the cartridge is held upside down **
Dry off the cartridge completely and put the unit back together. A full cartridge should last up to two months in an average, well-sealed 75 cigar humidor which is accessed about three times a week.
INSTALLATION
CIGAR OASIS ULTRA may be mounted on your humidor lid or side or just be placed in the humidor. When putting the Ultra in the humidor, be sure to keep the areas with air vents clear of
cigars, walls and the humidor lid with at least ¼ ”
of clearance. This will assure free and even circulation of humidified air in your humidor. Remove the magnets from the plastic bag and remove backing from one of the magnet parts and mount in the center of your humidor lid. Remove the backing from the other magnet and place it on the back of the silver control unit
To operate from wall outlet: Use the power adapter, connector and flexible ribbon cable supplied. Slip the free end of the ribbon cable between the hinges of the humidor
so the cable is inside the humidor and the power connector is outside in the back of the humidor. The ribbon cable may be bent or folded to suit your needs. Plug the free end of the power strip into the power connection on the side of the Cigar Oasis ULTRA control unit. In back of the humidor, peel protective backing from the adhesive on the plastic connector and mount it behind the humidor. Plug the power adapter into the plastic connector and the other end into nearest outlet.
When operating from a wall outlet and power consumption is not a problem, the humidity is sampled every few seconds and displayed. When depressing the Display button you will turn on or off the display and it will show the measured humidity.
To operate from battery:
Attach battery pack to plastic connector. You may mount the battery pack inside the humidor lid or in back of the humidor. CIGAR OASIS ULTRA is now operating on battery power.
In order to conserve power and make the batteries last for several weeks, the CIGAR OASIS ULTRA smart microprocessor turns off the display and samples the humidity once every five minutes. When depressing the Display button, it will display the measured humidity as it was on the last reading before the humidor was opened.
OPERATING THE CIGAR OASIS ULTRA
When the unit is powered, the sensor measures the humidity in the humidor and the microproces­sor controls the fan which increases the humidity. If the humidity is below the set point, the control system fan is turned on until the set point humidity is reached. CIGAR OASIS ULTRA has been set at about 70% at the factory; however, you may adjust it to your taste.
Adjusting humidity to desired set point
A humidity indicator is built in to allow you to check the humidity and adjust the setting. The set point is adjusted by pressing the two buttons denoted Set point Up and Set point Down. After the button is released, the display will
continue to show the set point for a few seconds.
The set point won’t be lost if power or batteries
are disconnected or replaced.
Low battery and/or water indications
When depressing the Display button to check the humidity, if battery needs replacement, the display will flash L0. W hen the water is low, it will flash H20 alerting you to refill the cartridge.
Reading the humidity
On outlet power the display is on all the time. When opening humidor the indicated humidity is the last measured value but in a few seconds will go to actual humidity with the lid open. On battery
power press the ☼ button to display the last
humidity reading.
Calibration Instructions
Look at the humidity reading on your separate digital hygrometer. If you absolutely trust your hygrometer, and it is different by more than 6% compared to your Cigar Oasis Humidifier, then you should re-calibrate the humidifier. Determine if you need to increase or decrease the reading on the Cigar Oasis Humidifier to match the reading on your separate digital hygrometer.
Press the ‘Up” and ‘Sun’ button simultaneously to enter the Calibration Mode (Displays CA2).
Press and Hold the ‘Up’ button if you need to increase the reading on the humidifier to match the reading on your separate
hygrometer. Press and Hold the ‘Down’ button
if you need to decrease the reading on the humidifier to match the reading on a separate hygrometer.
Press both the ‘UP’ and ‘Sun’ buttons simultaneously twice to leave the Calibration Mode.
Allow the humidifier to run for at least an hour to check the humidity level.
If further re-calibration is necessary, follow the above procedures again.
