RELATIVE HUMIDITY & HUMIDITY LEVEL
TECHNICAL DATA
Relative humidity is the amount of water vapor that is present in the air. It is shown as a
percentage of the water vapor in the air in relation to the total amount of water vapor that the
air can contain at a specic temperature. Air always contains water vapor, but the percentage
of water vapor in the air can vary. The higher the temperature, the more water vapor can be
held in the air. When cold air is heated to a comfortable temperature in the winter, the relative
humidity will drop. In order to keep a comfortable environment at home, water vapor must be
added into the air. For a comfortable and healthy environment, we recommend maintaining a
40% - 50% relative humidity level. The humidier will control the humidity level in your home
based on your desired settings.

FILLING THE WATER RESERVOIR
The PowerPure 5000 Ultrasonic Humidier is designed for easy and safe lling of the
water reservoir. The child safety lock on the right-hand side of the PowerPure 5000’s water
reservoir ensures it is held securely to the base of the humidier. The removable lid hides
the built-in carrying handle that makes it comfortable and safe to transport the water
reservoir when it is full.
1. While rmly holding on to the mist nozzle on
the top of the lid, gently remove the lid in an
upward direction from the humidier base.
Place the lid to the side.
2. Lift the hidden, built-in carry handle into the
upright position for easy transport.
3. Unlock the child safety lock on the right-hand
side of the water reservoir by turning the
locking mechanism counterclockwise 1/4 turn
from 3:00 to 12:00.
4. To remove the water reservoir, gently lift the
water reservoir in an upward direction from
the humidier base via the built-in carrying
handle. Carry the water reservoir to your sink.
5. Once at the sink, turn the water reservoir
upside down and unscrew the cap with
the combination water dispensing valve
and permanent ceramic lter. Fill the water
reservoir completely with cold water, then
reattach and tighten the cap and valve
assembly.
6. Carry the water reservoir back to the
humidier base via the built-in carrying
handle. Place the water reservoir back on the
humidier base and lock the child safety lock
by turning the locking mechanism clockwise
1/4 turn from 12:00 to 3:00. Firmly place the lid
back on top of the humidier.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

9
CAUTION: Avoid the risk of electric shock and possible damage to the humidier.
• ALWAYS unplug the humidier before removing the water reservoir. Do not touch the
water in the base during operation.
• Clean the water reservoir and base regularly with water only – never use detergents.
• Remove the water from the water reservoir, clean all components of the humidier and
thoroughly dry the humidier before storing for a prolonged period of time.
• In the instance that you have hard water, meaning that the water is rich with calcium and
magnesium, a white powder problem can develop within the humidier. This can lead to
heavy scaling on the surface of the water basin, transducer and the inner surface of the
water reservoir. Scale on the surface of the transducer will prevent your humidier from
working properly. To maintain proper functions, we recommend the following:
• Discontinue use of your tap water.
• Use distilled water.
• Clean the transducer, water reservoir and the basin unit regularly.
• Replace the water in the water reservoir regularly to ensure freshness.
Cleaning:
• Never submerge the main body of the humidier in water.
• Clean and activate the ceramic balls every 30-45 days depending upon use.
• Remove the ceramic ball lter from the water reservoir cover.
• Soak the ceramic ball lter in white vinegar for 10 minutes.
• Remove the ceramic ball lter from the white vinegar and thoroughly rinse with cool,
clean water before operating the humidier.
Cleaning the transducer:
• Put 5-10 drops of white vinegar on the surface of the transducer; wait 2-5 minutes.
• Gently remove any mineral scale from the surface of the transducer with a soft, damp
cloth to wipe it clean.
Cleaning the basin unit:
• Rinse the water basin with clean water and use a soft, damp cloth to remove build up.
In the event of scaling, pour a small amount of white vinegar and warm water into the
basin and let it soak for 5 minutes. Then use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the basin clean
and rinse it with clean water.
