removed for cleaning and maintenance.
Humidification System
– Water is passed through a heating element which creates warm mist to humidify the air. Stagnant water in the reservoir is eliminated due to minimal water quantity in the boiler reservoir.
Built-In Antimicrobial Properties
The plastic parts in this humidifier have
built-in antimicrobial properties to inhibit the growth of bacteria, mold and fungi that may affect these parts.

into this humidifier do not extend to the

Many regions have hard water with high concentrations of minerals. When water evaporates from the Care Free® Warm Mist Humidifier, minerals may be left behind. These minerals can form a hard white scale which can be removed by following the cleaning instructions. The frequency of cleaning due to mineral build up varies depending on the quality of water you have. Failure to perform the necessary cleaning steps can damage the unit and affect performance.
NOTE:
The Water Tank, Tank Cap, Medicine Cup, Boiler Cover, Boiling Chamber, and Exhaust Grille are dishwasher safe in the top rack only.
1. Push the POWER button to turn the unit OFF (the indicator light will be OFF) and unplug the humidifier.
2. Remove the Water Tank and carry it to a
sink or a tub. Unscrew the Tank Cap by twisting it counterclockwise and empty any water in the Water Tank.

Allow at least fifteen (15) minutes for the
