8 Troubleshooting
This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter with the
humidier. If you are unable to solve the problem with the information below, contact
the Consumer Care Center in your country.
Problem Possible solution
The humidier
does not work.
•Make sure that there is power supply to the humidier.
•Make sure that the water tank is lled with water and placed
properly onto the humidier.
There is no air
humidication.
Make sure that the water tank is lled with water and placed
properly into the humidier.
The water tank
leaks.
•Make sure that the humidier is not overlled with water.
•Make sure that the humidier is well assembled/connected
every time after you clean it or after you remove the upper
cover and/or water tank for relling.
•Make sure that water tank is placed properly. If the problem
persists, contact the Consumer Care Center in your country.
I do not see the
current humidity
indication
change.
•Make sure that you have wrapped the humidication lter
round the oat.
•The humidication lter is dirty. Rinse and/or descale the
humidication lter (see the chapter ‘Clean the humidication
lter’).
•Your room might have too much ventilation. Please close
doors and windows.
•Your room size is too big. The recommended room size is 50m2
for both HU4902 and HU4903.
There are
some white
deposits on the
humidication
lter.
The white deposits are called scale and they consist of minerals
from the water. Scale on the humidication lter aects the
humidifying performance, however it does not harm your health.
Please follow the cleaning instructions in the user manual.
The lter turns
yellowish after
some time.
The yellow deposits is a natural eect of the wick material, and
it has no impact on humidication performance. Clean the
humidication lter frequently to remove the scale, and replace
the humidication lter every three month.
