WHAT IS AGION ANTIMICROBIAL?

AgION* technology prevents surface growth and migration of mold, fungus and bacteria in the filter for its life - approximately one season. Keep in mind, depending on your water quality, mineral deposits can still clog or discolor the filter and affect its life and that of the humidifier.

* AgION is registered with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)

SET-UP:

Note: We recommend that the humidifier be disinfected prior to first use. Please see WEEKLY CLEANING instructions.

Select a firm, level and flat location. For proper air flow, locate the unit at least six inches (15 cm) from any wall. Place the humidifier on a water resistant surface, as water can damage furniture and some flooring.

Remove the Natural Cool MoistureTM Filters from the Removable Tray before filling the unit. Soak the Filters in cool water and then place the

wet Filters back into the Removable Tray. DO NOT squeeze or wring-out the Filters.

Honeywell will not accept responsibility for property damage caused by water spillage.

When the room has reached a comfortable humidity level, turn the Humidistat Knob slowly counter-clock- wise until the fan stops. The DESIRED HUMIDITY light will be illuminated.

The humidistat will automatically restart the humidifier when the humidity level in the room falls below this moisture setting. This on/off cycle will continue while the humidifier is in use.

Lower the humidity level if condensation forms on walls or windows.
