Using Your Vicks Cool Mist Humidifier
First Time Use
Read all instructions before using this appliance. With proper care and maintenance, the humidifier should be able to provide at least 18 hours operation per filling.
Unpack and remove all packing material from the Water Tank and Base. Completely unravel power cord and place unit on a flat, stable surface at least 5 inches away from walls and heat sources. Do not use product if cord has been damaged. Place cord out of the way where it cannot be pulled or stepped on. Follow the directions below to fill and operate the Humidifier.
Filling the Water Tank
Always UNPLUG the humidifier before filling.
1. Remove the Water Tank from the Base and turn it upside down. Turn the Tank Cap counterclockwise to open.
2. Fill the Water Tank with clean, cool, tap water and replace the Tank Cap by firmly turning clockwise. Turn the tank upright and check Tank Cap for leaks. If any water drips from Tank Cap, remove it and re-tighten. Make sure the circular rub cap Gasket (o-Ring) is in place when replacing Tank Cap — this prevents water leakage.
