chamber. Medicine in the mist chamber may affect the operation of the
humidifier.
•Place medicine cup on the top of the mist chamber.
•NEVER add any medication, essential oils or other additives directly to the
water.
A note about humidity
•It is best to keep the humidity level at about 30-50 percent of relative
humidity.
•The comfort level of humidity will vary from room to room and with changing
weather 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 windowsills.
•Too much humidity in the room may allow moisture to accumulate on
surfaces where bacteria and fungi can grow. Moisture that gathers may also
damage furniture and walls, especially wallpaper.
•To eliminate excessive humidity, especially in small rooms, leave the room
door open and adjust the mist intensity control setting.

5. Carefully empty the tank after 20 minutes, and rinse with warm water until you
can no longer detect a vinegar smell.
How to clean the heating element in the base
1. To remove the mist chamber, slide the mist chamber latch to the left and
carefully lift the mist chamber off the water basin.
2. Fill the heating element with undiluted white vinegar.
3. Let it stand for 20 minutes. Dampen soft, clean cloth or sponge with undiluted
white vinegar and wipe out heating element to remove scale. DO NOT use soap,
detergents or abrasive cleaners.
4. Rinse heating element using clean, warm water, being careful not to submerge
the base in the water. Dry thoroughly. DO NOT IMMERSE WATER BASIN IN
WATER.

Weekly maintenance (Removing scale)
NOTE: We recommend cleaning the humidifier WEEKLY or more often if you have
hard water or notice a build-up of impurities or detect unpleasant odors.
Repeat steps 1-4 above.
End of season maintenance and storing
1. Follow above weekly cleaning procedure at the end of the humidification season,
or when the humidifier will not be used for several days, being sure to dry all
parts. Allow the water tank to thoroughly air dry before storage. DO NOT store
with water inside any part of the humidifier.
2. Leave tank cap partially loosened during storage to prevent tank cap and gasket
from sticking together. This will prolong the life of the gasket.
3. Save original box for easy storage. Store humidifier in a cool, dry location. Do not
place any heavy items on top of humidifier during storage as this may result in
possible damage of humidifier.
IMPORTANT: Failure to keep this humidifier clean from mineral deposits normally
contained in any water supply will affect the efficiency of the operation. Customer
failure to follow these instructions may void the warranty.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the humidifier is unplugged and switched OFF before cleaning or
attempting to store the humidifier. NEVER PLUG OR UNPLUG HUMIDIFIER WITH WET
HANDS.
DO NOT leave water in the water tank or water basin when the humidifier is not in
use. If water remains in the water tank for more than a day or two, bacterial growth is
possible.
