1. The humidifier should ALWAYS be placed
on a firm, flat, waterproof surface at least four feet (1.2m) away from bedside, 12 inches (30cm) from the wall and out of reach of children and pets. Be sure the humidifier is in a stable position and the power cord is away from heated surfaces and out of the way to prevent the humidifier from being overturned.
2. The humidifier should not be left unattended,
especially in a closed room since air could become saturated and leave condensation on walls and furniture. If room becomes saturated, open the door and turn the humidifier off or down.
3. Before using the humidifier, extend the
cord and inspect for any signs of damage. DO NOT use the unit if the cord has been damaged. DO NOT operate with power cord coiled or with twist tie in place.
4. The humidifier has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other) as a safety feature. This plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety feature.
5. CAUTION: To avoid fire or electric shock
hazard, plug the humidifier directly into a 120V AC electrical outlet. To avoid risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury, DO NOT use an extension cord or power strip.
6. The humidifier should ALWAYS be
unplugged and emptied when not in operation or while being cleaned. Shut off and unplug humidifier before moving. DO NOT move or tilt humidifier while it is in operation. Plug and unplug unit with dry hands. NEVER pull by cord.
7. DO NOT operate the humidifier without
water. Turn off and unplug unit when tank is empty and the reset light is on.

intended for indoor residential use only.
10. DO NOT cover or insert objects into any
openings on the unit.
11. DO NOT block intake or output vents.
12. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any
electrical or mechanical functions on this humidifier. Doing so will void your warranty.
13. DO NOT place in direct sunlight, high
temperature areas or near computers or sensitive electronic equipment.
14. DO NOT touch the nebulizer while the unit
is plugged in, as burns could result.

COMPONENTS
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR COOL MIST HUMIDIFIER
How it Works
Water is released from the Water Tank into the Reservoir. A Nebulizer vibrates at ultrasonic frequency, breaking the water into a fine mist. The mist is quietly propelled by a fan up a vertical Mist Chamber to the Mist Outlet where the cool, visible mist enters the room. This humidifier will shut off when the water level is low or when the tank is removed from the base.

NOTE: Position humidifier to direct mist output away from walls, furniture and bedding.
1. Power On: With the Mist Control Wheel in the OFF position, plug the filled humidifier into a polarized 120V outlet.
CAUTION: To avoid electric shock, DO NOT plug humidifier into an outlet with wet hands.
2. Slide the Control Wheel up or down to reach desired humidity level. More lights mean more mist output. To turn off humidifier, turn Control Wheel down until it clicks and all lights turn off.
3. Humidity Level: When a comfortable humidity level is reached, turn Control Wheel to a lower setting. A comfortable humidity level is between 4060%. Consider using a humidity monitor to display current room humidity and temperature.
CONDENSATION: If you notice condensation on the walls, windows or around the humidifier, the humidity level is too high. Turn off humidifier until humidity level drops.
4. Tank Light: Press the Tank Light button to control the light in the Water Tank. There are three settings: Bright, Dim, or Off.
Using The Essential Oil Tray
This humidifier features an Essential Oil Tray that can be used with your favorite essential oil for added enjoyment. This not a diffuser - the oil does not come in contact with water and is passively evaporated into the air. Essential oil is sold separately.
1. Slide the tray open.
2. Add a few drops of essential oil to the Pad.
WARNING: DO NOT pour any liquids into the Mist Outlet. DO NOT ADD LIQUID INHALANTS, ESSENTIAL OILS OR ANY ADDITIVES TO THE WATER TANK. DOING SO CAN HAVE ADVERSE EFFECTS ON THE HUMIDIFIER AND VOID THE WARRANTY.
3. To clean the Essential Oil Tray, gently wipe residue from the Tray.
Daily Maintenance
For best results, use fresh clean water every day.

SETTING UP YOUR HUMIDIFIER
Unpack the Humidifier
Keep this instruction manual for reference
Remove packaging materials.
1. Remove twist tie and extend power cord. Place on a firm, level, water resistant surface a minimum of 12” (30cm) from any walls.
Hard Water and White Dust
High mineral content in your water, also known as hard water, may cause a white mineral residue to accumulate on surfaces in the room near the humidifier. This mineral residue is commonly referred to as white dust. The higher the mineral content (hardness) of your water, the greater the potential that an ultrasonic humidifier may produce white dust.
White dust is not a result of a defect or flaw in the humidifier. It is a result of the amount of minerals suspended in the water you are using.
FILLING / REFILLING
NOTE: Tank should be carried using two hands; one hand on the Tank Handle and the other supporting the bottom of the Tank.
Kaz USA, Inc. will not accept responsibility for property damage caused by water spillage.
This humidifier holds 1.25 gallons (4.5 liters) of water (tank and reservoir combined).
Filling
1. Remove Water Tank and turn upside down. Remove Tank Cap by turning counter clockwise (left). Fill Tank with cool water. DO NOT fill with warm or hot water.
2. Replace Tank Cap by turning clockwise (to right) to screw back in place. DO NOT over-tighten.
3. Place Tank in humidifier Housing. Water will drain from the Tank into the Reservoir when the Plunger is engaged.
4. When the Tank is empty, the humidifier will shut off and the refill light will turn on. Refill the tank following the instructions above.

3. Place Tank in Housing, allowing solution to drain into the Water Reservoir. Soak for 20 minutes
4. Remove Water Tank and empty solution into sink.
5. Pour solution from the Reservoir into the sink. Be sure to pour out of the back of the unit to avoid leaking into control panel. Rinse Tank and Reservoir area with clean water until the smell of bleach is gone.

End of Season Cleaning and Storage
Follow the cleaning instructions when the humidifier will not be used for at least one week, or at the end of the season.
At the end of the season, remove any accessories and discard. Allow the humidifier and all components to dry completely before storing.
DO NOT store humidifier with water inside the Reservoir or Water Tank. Pack unit safely and store in cool, dry location.
CLEANING YOUR HUMIDIFIER
To keep your humidifier running efficiently, clean it regularly. Weekly cleaning is recommended. All maintenance should be done in the kitchen or bathroom on a water-resistant surface near a faucet.
