DEAR CUSTOMER,
Congratulations on your purchase of the BONECO H300.
Thanks to its high evaporating output, it keeps humid-
ity always at a comfortable level at all times and thus
improves the well-being of people and pets – especially
during the dry winter months. At the same time, the inte-
grated AH300 pollen filter effectively alleviates discom-
fort for people with allergies.
In addition, the BONECO app gives you access to a wide
variety of programs and automated actions you can use
to adapt the BONECO H300 to your personal needs in ev-
ery detail. Cleaning the appliance is just as easy because
most of the parts can be cleaned in your washing machine
or dishwasher.
Regardless of whether it is summer or winter: You
will not want to give up your newly gained comfort.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before using the device, carefully read through the
enclosed safety notes and operating manual and
keep them for later use.
IMPORTANT NOTES
FIRST CLEANING
Production-related residue on the water base and
water tank may lead to foaming, and thereby to wa-
ter escaping. For this reason, before the first use,
both elements must be cleaned with warm water and
dishwashing detergent. Thoroughly rinse the parts
under running water.

ON MANUAL OPERATION
The BONECO H300 offers extensive possibilities for con-
trol and automation, which are controlled by the BONECO
app. Furthermore, some basic functions are available that
you can control manually using the knob on the front.
AUTO MODE
If you have never operated the BONECO H300 with the
BONECO app and switch it on for the first time, the appli-
ance will operate as a humidifier and air purifier in AUTO
mode. The appliance is preset to a target humidity of 50
percent. The performance level is automatically adapted
to the current humidity: The drier the air, the higher the
output level.
If the preset target humidity is exceeded by 2 percent, the
appliance switches to standby mode, which is indicated
by the pulsing LED:
If the humidity drops below the set level, the BONECO
H300 resumes operation.
ADAPTED AUTO MODE
If you have already operated the BONECO H300 with the
BONECO app and set a different humidity, that value is
automatically taken over when it is switched on.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
1. Briefly press the output regulator once to switch on
the BONECO H300.
The appliance is always in AUTO mode when it is switched
on. You can identify active AUTO mode by the small LED
that lights up above the output regulator.
2. To switch off the BONECO H300 while it is in AUTO
mode, briefly press the output regulator once.
MANUAL OPERATION

33
en
The selected performance level is indicated by the num-
ber of LEDs that light up above the output regulator.
3. Briefly press the control knob once to exit manual
mode and to reactivate AUTO mode.
4. Briefly press the output regulator once more to
switch off the BONECO H300.
If you exit AUTO mode, the BONECO H300 will con-
tinue at the selected output level until the water tank
is empty – regardless of what the current level of
humidity is.
MANUAL CONTROL
1. Briefly press the output regulator once to switch on
the BONECO H300.
The appliance is always in AUTO mode when it is
switched on.
2. Adjust the output to your needs by setting the control
knob to the desired level from 1 to 6. This action exits
AUTO mode (AUTO LED is off).
MANUAL OPERATION (CONTINUED)

HYBRID MODE (“HYBRID”)
The BONECO H300 combines two functions.
• The AH300 pollen filter cleanses breathing air of pollen,
household dust and fine particles.
• The evaporator mat humidifies the room air.
You achieve the best results if the BONECO H300 humidi-
fies and purifies the air at the same time. Nevertheless it
is possible to use just one of the two functions.
HUMIDIFICATION ONLY (“HUMIDIFIER”)
We recommend using the BONECO H300 with inserted
AH300 pollen filter even in winter because, aside from
pollen, it also filters household dust out of the air. In order
to operate the appliance without the AH300 pollen filter,
simply remove the filter from its holder.
If you remove the AH300 pollen filter, the maximum hu-
midifier output rises from about 200 g/h (1.27 gal/day) to
about 350 g/h (2.22 gal/day).
AH300 POLLEN FILTER ONLY (“PURIFIER”)
In summer, humidity is usually sufficient, but pollen gives
people with allergies a difficult time. If you only want to
use the purifying effect of the AH300 pollen filter, switch
the BONECO H300 to the “Purifier” operating mode using
the BONECO app.

FRAGRANCE CONTAINER
Commercially available fragrances and essential oils can
be inserted into the fragrance container on the rear side.
Never mix any additives into the water base itself,
since doing so can decrease the performance of the
BONECO H300 and even cause damage. This dam-
age is not covered by the warranty.
The fragrance container can be cleaned in the dish-
washer. The temperature may not exceed 50 °C
(130 °F).
USE
1. Press down on the fragrance container to take out
the drawer.
2. Sprinkle the felt insert in the drawer with the fra-
grance of your choice.

ABOUT CLEANING
Regular maintenance and cleaning are necessary for
trouble-free and hygienic operation.
Recommended cleaning and maintenance intervals vary
depending on air quality, water quality and length of op-
eration.
Dishwashing liquid and a scrub brush are recommended
for cleaning by hand.
Always unplug the BONECO H300 before you start
cleaning! Failure to do so can result in electric shock
and fatal injury!
In the case of cleaning the drum and the water base
in the dishwasher, a temperature of 50 °C may not
be exceeded, as temperatures higher than this can
cause the plastic parts to deform.

relieve the strain on the AH300 pollen filter and to improve
its effectiveness. Clean the pre-filter if it looks dusty or
dirty.
