Humidifier Operations
Your new Emerson humidifier is designed to satisfy home humidity requirements through the principle of evaporation of water into the air.
After water is added to the tank the filters begin to soak up the water and become totally saturated in approximately 30 minutes. Air is drawn in from the rear of the humidifier, then passes through the filters by means of two circulation fans. As air passes through the filters, moisture is absorbed into the air and then released through the top of the humidifier. This moist air is released in the form of vapor. No water droplets will enter the home. All evaporation into the air takes place in the humidifier, which means that the residue left by evaporating water is not passed into the home, but remains in the filter.
CAUTION: Use only EPA Registered Bacteriostat available from your local retail store. Under no circumstances should you use water treatment products for Roto belt or Ultrasonic humidifiers.

CAUTION: Keep your humidifier clean. While humidifiers do not cause colds, some studies suggest that dirty humidifiers can cause cold-like symptoms in some people. To reduce the risk of this, we recommend you clean your humidifier weekly with cleaners specifically recommended for humidifiers and use EPA recommended bacteriostat.
Assembly
Your new Emerson humidifier is completely assembled for you to use. Remove the packaging material from inside your humidifier and follow the instructions of this owner's manual for proper usage. The packaging material is located below the fan assembly. Remove all of the packaging material and discard.
NOTE: The filters may have shifted during shipping. Ensure that they are properly seated in the bottom of the cabinet below the top filter housings before filling. Refer to “Replacement and Care of Filters” section on page 9.
Electrical Hook-Up
Locate nearest 120V A.C. wall socket in the location desired, preferably on inside wall. Plug in the electrical cord.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, do not use extension cords. Humidifier should be plugged directly into a 120V A.C. outlet.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this humidifier has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Location Instructions
WARNING: For your own safety, do not use humidifier if any parts are damaged or missing.
Step 1
Place humidifier on a flat level surface in area of house where most humidity is needed, or an area which would likely result in moist air being circulated throughout the house, such as near a cold air return. Placing the unit level is very important if the humidifier is located on carpeting.
Moist air (humidity) produced will disperse into the whole house, but area closest to the unit will have the highest humidity. Do not position humidifier close to a window. Condensation may form on the window pane.
NOTE: Due to release of cool, moist air from humidifier, it is best to direct air away from home thermostat and hot air registers. It is best to position humidifier next to an inside wall. Hot air registers and cold air
from outside walls can affect the efficiencies of the controls. Unit should not be placed where warm air from a hot air register blows directly on unit.
Step 2
The humidifier should be positioned with the back (cord exit side), at least 2 inches away from the wall. Air needs to enter through louvers in the rear panel in order for the humidifier to operate at peak efficiency.
At Least 2" From Wall
