IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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.

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.

W O R K ?

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-bal- anced 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.

S E T- U P

•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 CLEANING instructions.

•Remove the Water

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

Fig. 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.

Fig. 2

• 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.
