MAINTENANCE/CARE
General
Always unplug the unit before cleaning.
Drain and clean before storing.
Clean after tong periods of storage.
Clean frequently during the heating season. (Every third day is recommended.)
Never immerse unit in water or let water enter the air outlet or any other openings.
Rinse water tank with lukewarm water after each use. To dry for storage, wipe with a soft clean cloth.
lnformation
To Clean Water Tank:
If tank appears dirty, sanitize it by using a mild bleach and water solution, never detergent.
Rinse thoroughly to be sure bleach is
entirely
elimlnated before using.
Caution: If water sits in the tank for more than a day or two,
bacterial growth is possible.
To Clean Nebulizer and Water Sensor:
Periodically inspect nebulizer and water sensor and keep them free of mineral deposits. Remove the
tank from the unit and empty the reservoir in the bottom of the unit. Clean nebulizer (located in the
bottom of reservoir) with the brush stored in the unit under the tank. Do not scrape nebulizer or
water sensor or clean them with tools that have metal parts. Clean water sensor with the brush.
If instructions are not followed and hard water is used, mineral build-up on the nebulizer will occur.
If nebulizer has accumulated hard water build-up, drain the reservoir, refill it with a white vinegar
and water solution and let it soak for an hour. Then use the brush to loosen build-up on the
nebulizer. Rinse and drain reservoir and wipe clean.
Caution: Minerals in tap
water
can cause a white dust to
appear on furniture, etc. Distilled water reduces buildup of
mineral scale and white dust. See inside front cover.
To Store Unit:
The original box makes a good storage place for the unit. Make sure tank, reservoir and all parts
are thoroughly dry before storing. If water is left in the unit during storage, water may harden and
leave deposits that can prevent the unit from operating properly. Leave filling door of the tank
loosened to prevent door and gasket from sticking together. This will prolong the life of the gasket.
A NOTE ABOUT
It is best to keep the humidity level at about 30 to 50 percent relative humidity.
The comfort level of humidity will vary from room to room and with changing room conditions.
In cold weather, windows and even some walls may fog or develop frost from excessive indoor
humidity. If this occurs, reduce the mist intensity setting to avoid damage from condensed water
dripping on sills.
HUMIDITY
Too much humidity in the room may allow moisture to accumulate on surfaces where bacteria and
fungi can grow. Collected moisture may also harm furniture and walls, especially wallpaper.
To correct for too much humidity, especially in a small room, leave the room door open and-adjust
the mist intensity control setting.
This equipment generafes and uses RF energy and if not installed properly may cause interference
to radio and television reception. This device has been tested and found to comply with part 18 of
the FCC rules. Should interference occur in a particular installation the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient the receiving antenna of your radio or television.
2. Plug receiver into different outlet so that humidifier and receiver are on different branch circuits.
If necessary, the user should consult an experienced radio/television technician for additional
assistance. The user may find the following booklet prepared by the FCC helpful: “How to
identify and resolve radio-television interference problems”. The booklet is available from
the US government printing office, Washington DC 20402, Stock No.:
004000-00345-4. -
DEMINERALIZATION
CARTRIDGE
The demineralization cartridge reduces the amount of minerals that cause white dust to appear
on furniture, etc. if unit is used with tap water. The amount of white dust accumulation depends on
your water supply and its mineral content. You may be able to find out the water hardness in your
area by calling your local water department.
To use: Just place the demineralization cartridge in the cavity in the bottom of the unit. Then replace
the water tank and wait a few minutes for the reservoir to refill. Plug in the unit and turn it on. Mist
will
start when reservoir is full. If white dust accumulation becomes noticeable, or after long
periods of storage, order and insert a new demineralization cartridge.
To order a demineralization cartridge,

Note: The performance of the demineralization cartridge is dependent upon the mineral content
of your water supply: Efficiency will deteriorate with the number of uses.
