Use the On/Off dial to adjust the intensity of the mist output by selecting
either (1) for lower mist output or (2) for higher mist output.
When the humidifier runs out of water the blue power light will turn off and
the mist output will stop. This safety feature sues a water level sensor to turn
off the heating element once the water level sinks below the required level in
the water basin. A small orange light will appear to indicate that the
humidifier has automatically turned off. Turn the humidifier off and unplug
before removing and refilling the water tank.
IMPORTANT: Overheat red light
When the humidifier runs out of water, the BLUE light will turn off and mist will
stop. If the unit has overheated, a small RED light will turn on (light will appear
near the “2” on Control Knob). The RED light indicates that the unit has
overheated. Turn the humidifier off, unplug the unit, allow the basin and water to
cool, then empty water in basin. Turn the humidifier basin over and press the
Reset Button, with a pen or pencil tip, on the bottom of the Water Basin. This will
reset the humidifier.
How to use the medicine cup

chamber. Medicine in the mist chamber may affect the operation of the
humidifier.
Place medicine cup on the top of the mist chamber.
DO NOT add any medication or other additives such as essential oils 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.
