Unique Features and Specifications
Ultrasonic Technology
This humidifier uses ultrasonic high frequency technology to convert the water into
1-5 million super particles that are dispersed into the air evenly. These particles then
combine with the ions generated by the humidifier to moisten the air.
Oscillating Head
The humidifier features a motorized nozzle that oscillates 120°. The oscillating head
can also be stopped at any point in the oscillation cycle to target the mist in a
specific direction.
Night Light
A useful night light feature is included for your convenience.
Auto Shut Off Protection
When the tank is empty the unit will shut off automatically.
Overheat Protection
This humidifier is equipped with a non-resettable fuse in case of overheating. If
the non-resettable fuse has been activated, operation cannot be resumed. The
fuse will need to be replaced by an authorized service personnel.
