OWNERS MANUAL
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Always place this humidifier on a firm, flat and level surface. This humidifier may not work properly on an uneven 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 the
manufacturer under the warranty agreement for repair.
5. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is 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 too defeat this
safety feature.
6. To disconnect the humidifier, first turn controls to the OFF position, then grip the plug and pull it from the wall outlet. Never pull by the cord.
7. A loose fit between the AC outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause overheating and a distortion of the plug. Contact a qualified electrician to replace loose or worn outlet.
8. The humidifier should always be unplugged and emptied when not in operation or while being serviced or cleaned.
9. Never tilt or attempt to move the humidifier while it is operating or filled with water.
UNPLUG the humidifier before moving.
10. 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.
11. Turn the humidifier OFF if the relative humidity exceeds 60%, or if you notice moisture on the inside of your windows. For proper humidity reading use a hygrometer, which is available in many hardware and department stores or by ordering one from the manufacturer (see Care Products).
12.
DO NOT touch the steam vapor. Steam can cause burns.
13.
DO NOT block the mist grille. This will damage the humidifier.
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS HUMIDIFIER
Thank you for purchasing a Honeywell Natural Warm Moisture®Humidifier. If you would like more information on our full line of products, please visit our website at: www.honeywell.com/yourhome.
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 spreads
invisible
moisture-balanced air into the room.
MODELS - HWM910 and HWM910C:
Your humidifier is made up of these parts:
INTRODUCTION
Water Tank
Power Unit
Base
Fill Cap
Grille with Medicine Cup
Removable Tray
SETUP
Remove the water tank by grasping the handle and
pulling straight up. Set aside (Fig. 1).
Turn the Water Tank upside down so that the Fill Cap
is facing up; unscrew the Fill Cap by turning it counter-clockwise and set aside.
Fill the Water Tank with COOL tap water (Fig. 2). Distilled water is not necessary as the water is purified by the heating element.
DO NOT USE HOT WATER. Doing so
may damage the humidifier.
Replace the fill cap by turning it clockwise .
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
NOTE: WHEN CARRYING THE FILLED WATER TANK, PLEASE USE THE HANDLE AND PLACE YOUR OTHER HAND UNDER THE TANK FOR ADDITIONAL SUPPORT.
Turn the Water Tank right side up. Position the tank into the humidifier and push it into place (Fig. 3).
Some water will flow into the Removable Tray when the
filled tank is properly in place.
Once the filled tank has been positioned, do not attempt
to move the humidifier. If it has to be moved, unplug the humidifier and remove the water tank first.
CAUTION: DO NOT POUR WATER INTO THE GRILLE ON TOP OF THE HUMIDIFIER (Fig. 3). DOING SO MAY DAMAGE THE HUMIDIFIER OR CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY.
NOTE: We recommend that the humidifier be disinfected prior to first use. Please see WEEKLY CLEANING instructions.
Select a firm, level, flat location - at least six inches (15 cm) from any wall for
proper air flow (Fig. 1). Place the humidifier on a water-resistant surface, as water can damage furniture and some flooring.
Honeywell will not accept responsibility for property damage caused by water spillage.

STEP ONE:
SCALE REMOVAL
REMOVABLE TRAY:
1. Fill the Removable Tray (Fig. 6) with either:
1 cup (8 oz.) undiluted white vinegar
or
Use DuraRinse®Humidifier Cleaner, Part No. AC-816, following bottle instructions.
2. Let solution stand for 20 minutes.
3. With the vinegar or DuraRinse
®
in the Removable Tray clean all interior surfaces with a soft cloth or brush to help remove scale.
4. Rinse the Removable Tray thoroughly with water to remove scale and cleaning solution.
STEP TWO:
DISINFECTING
WATER TANK/REMOVABLE TRAY
1. Fill the Water Tank with:
1 teaspoon of household bleach
and
1 gallon of water. Pour some of this solution into the Removable Tray.
2. Let solution stand for 20 minutes.
3. Rinse with water until the odor of bleach is gone.
NOTE: THE USE OF OTHER WATER TREATMENT PRODUCTS, CHEMICALS, SOAPS, DETERGENTS OR ABRASIVE CLEANSERS NOT RECOMMENDED IN THE MANUAL MAY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE HUMIDIFIER OR AFFECT PERFORMANCE.
We recommend cleaning the humidifier weekly, more often if you have hard water or notice a build-up of impurities or detect unpleasant odors.
Cleaning involves two steps SCALE REMOVAL and DISINFECTING. Be sure to perform these in the proper order to avoid harmful chemical interactions.
First, turn off and unplug the humidifier. Wait at
least 10 minutes for the unit to cool.
Remove the Water Tank.
To remove the Power Unit, pull the Latch to
release (found under the Water Tank) and lift the Power Unit (Fig. 6). Turn upside-down to check condition of heating element. If build-up of minerals is heavy, follow the CLEANING THE HEATING ELEMENT instructions. Set the Power Unit aside.
Empty any water from the Base and Removable Tray.
WEEKLY CLEANING
Fig. 6
If the unit stops producing mist, even while there is water in the tank, the mineral build-up may need to be removed from the heating element of the Power Unit.
How often you perform this special maintenance depends upon the hardness of the water you are using and how quickly mineral deposits form on the interior surfaces of the humidifier.
DO NOT clean the heating element under running water. Doing so may cause damage or personal injury.
1. Unplug the humidifier. Allow at least 10 minutes for the unit to cool.
2. The heating element is on the bottom of the Power Unit. To access it, remove
the Power Unit by pulling on the Latch (found under the Water Tank) and lifting the Power Unit (Fig. 6).
3. Turn it upside down. BE SURE IT HAS COOLED
SUFFICIENTLY.
4. Use a non-metallic brush or a soft, dry cloth to wipe
the outer surfaces of the heating element (Fig. 7). Some deposit may remain, but should not interfere with the operation of the unit.
END-OF-THE-SEASON CARE AND STORAGE
Follow WEEKLY CLEANING instructions when the humidifier will not be used for at
least one week or more, or at the end of the season.
Dry the humidifier completely before storing. DO NOT store with water inside the
Removable Tray, Base, or Water Tank.
Pack the unit in its original carton and store in a cool, dry location.
Before next use, remember to clean the humidifier.
