READ ALL INSTRUC­TIONS BEFORE USING
THIS HUMIDIFIER. SAVE
THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR
EASY REFERENCE.

WHEN USING ANY ELEC­TRICAL APPLIANCE,
BASIC SAFETY PRECAU­TIONS SHOULD BE FOL­LOWED INCLUDING:

1.

This humidifier may not
work properly on an
uneven surface. Always
place this humidifier on a
firm, flat and level sur­face.

2. Place this humidifier in
an area where it is not
accessible to children.

3. Do not place the
humidifier near any heat
sources such as stoves,
radiators and heaters.

4. Before using the
humidifier, check the
power cord for any signs
of damage. If the cord is
found to be damaged,

DO

NOT USE

and return the
humidifier to Honeywell
under the warranty
agreement for repair.

5. This product is
equipped with a polar­ized AC-line plug (a plug
having one blade wider
than the other). This plug
will fit into the power
outlet only one way. This
is a safety feature.
NEVER connect the
humidifier to any power
source other than a 120V
AC polarized outlet. If you
are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet,
try reversing the plug. If
the plug should still fail to
fit, contact an electrician
to replace the obsolete

outlet. DO NOT defeat
the safety purpose of the
polarized plug.

6.

The humidifier should
always be unplugged and
emptied when not in
operation or while being
serviced or cleaned.

7. Never tilt or attempt to
move the humidifier
while it is operating or
filled with water.
UNPLUG the humidifier
before moving.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

8. This humidifier requires
regular cleaning. Refer to
the CLEANING instruc­tions provided. Never
clean the humidifier in
any manner other than as
instructed in this manual.

9. Turn the humidifier OFF
if the relative humidity
exceeds 60%. For proper
humidity readings use a
hygrometer which is
available in many hard­ware and department
stores.

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing
a HONEYWELL HWM-2030
WARM MOISTURE
HUMIDIFIER
with humidistat.

Before using your humid­ifier, we would like to
explain the benefits of
maintaining your home or
office at the proper
humidity level.

HEALTH

Your body needs mois­ture to stay healthy and
comfortable. Dry air can
be damaging and irritat­ing. The Honeywell Warm
Moisture Humidifier can
help relieve:

• Dry, itchy skin and
chapped lips.

• Cold symptoms and
congestion.

• Dry, scratchy throat
and coughs.

For serious medical con­ditions, always consult

your physician prior to
use.

ENVIRONMENT

Maintaining the proper
moisture level in your
home or office with your
Honeywell Warm Moisture
Humidifier will also help to:

• Replace needed mois­ture in furniture.

• Keep indoor plants
moist and healthy.

• Eliminate cracking
and dryness in wood
furniture and fixtures.

• Minimize static
electricity.

HOW DOES IT
WORK?

Water passes into the
Power Unit where it is
heated and purified. The
Warm Moisture System
then pulls the air through
the top vent and dispers­es invisible, moisture-bal­anced air into the room

.

This humidifier produces
warm moisture. It auto­matically shuts off when
the tank is empty or
removed, or when the
Power Unit is removed.

SET-UP

• Select a firm, level,
flat location — at least
six inches (15cm) away
from any wall for proper
air flow and convenient
to an electrical outlet.

• Place the humidifier
on a water-resistant
surface, as water can
damage furniture and
some flooring.

FILLING

• We recommend that
the humidifier be disin­fected prior to the first
use. Please see CLEAN-
ING instructions.

• Remove the Water
Tank by grasping the
handle and pulling
straight up (Figure 1).

• Turn the Water Tank
upside-down so that it
is facing up; unscrew
the fill cap by turning it
counter-clockwise and
set the cap aside.

• Fill the tank with
COOL tap water (Figure

2). DO NOT USE HOT
WATER. Distilled water
is not necessary as the
water is purified by the
heating element.

• Replace the Fill Cap
by turning it clockwise.

DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.

NOTE: WHEN CARRY­ING THE FILLED WATER
TANK, PLEASE USE THE
HANDLES ON THE TOP
AND BOTTOM OF THE
TANK FOR ADDITIONAL
SUPPORT.

• Turn the Water Tank
right-side up.

• Position the Water
Tank into the humidifier
and push it into place.

• Some water will flow
into the Reservoir Base
when the filled tank is
properly positioned.

• Once the filled tank is
in place, do not attempt
to move the humidifier.
If it has to be moved,
unplug the unit and
remove the Water Tank
prior to moving.

NOTE: DO NOT POUR
WATER INTO THE
GRILL ON THE TOP OF
THE UNIT. DOING SO
MAY DAMAGE THE
HUMIDIFIER AND
COULD CAUSE PER­SONAL INJURY.
