Unique Features and Specifications

Ultrasonic Technology

This humidifier uses ultrasonic high frequency technology to convert the water into
1-5 million super particles that are dispersed into the air evenly. These particles then
combine with the ions generated by the humidifier to moisten the air.

Oscillating Head

The humidifier features a motorized nozzle that automatically oscillates 120°. The
oscillating head can also be stopped at any point in the oscillation cycle to target the
mist in a specific direction.

Warm or Cool Mist Option

Choose either warm or cool mist for customized comfort.

Auto Shut Off Protection

When the tank is empty the unit will shut off automatically.

Advanced Multi-Protection

The humidifier shuts off automatically if the water tank is removed
OR unit is overloaded.

Ultrasonic Nebulizer

The humidifier utilizes special spray techniques and the ultrasonic nebulizer is easy to
clean for lifetime use.

How To Use

CAUTION: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the
other). To reduce the risk of shock, this plug is intended to fit only one
way in a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature. To do so could result in an
electric shock hazard.
