perfumes, etc …)
4. Always ensure the tank is on a level service when filling and in use.
5. Place the bell into the tank and turn it clockwise to lock.
6. At this point you will be able to insert the power cord into the back of the unit.
7. If you have difficulty in inserting the power card remove and replace the bell
ensuring to lock in place when closing. This is due to a safety lock mechanism
which ensures that the bell cannot be removed from the tank when the power
cord is in place.

before turning on the appliance.
9. To turn the appliance on, plug into the mains power outlet and switch the mains
supply on.
10. Vaporisation should start after a few minutes.
11. The steam emission quantity can be regulated by using the Steam Regulation
Knob (2).
12. When the water level in the tank reaches the lower edge of the electrodes, steam
emission diminishes slowly until it stops. A small amount of water will always
remain in the tank.
13. Before topping up again, it is advisable to empty the tank completely of water,
rinse it and follow the instructions again.
14. The steam production time and emission quantity may vary depending on the
water hardness.
Care and Maintenance
1. Switch the appliance off and unplug it.
2. Wipe the body of the appliance off with a soft damp cloth. If necessary use a little
washing-up liquid.
3. Rinse the water tank with clean water after each use. To dry for storage, wipe
with a soft clean cloth.
4. Do not use detergents to clean any part of the unit that normally contains water.
Detergents can interfere with the performance of the unit.
5. Do not immerse the humidifier in water or any other liquid.
6. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
Additional Maintenance
It is advisable to empty the contents of the humidifier after every use and rinse it
completely before storing away or re-use. Failure to comply with this recommendation
will lead to an increase in water conductivity, which may cause the following problems :
- noise made during steam emission
- leaking drops of water
- rapid wear of electrodes
Should the quantity of steam produced decrease, the electrodes will most likely need to
be descaled. Descaling is simple and can be done using a descaling solution or
household vinegar.
Method:
1. Pour water into a container and add the descaling solution or household vinegar
as directed.
2. Place the bell into the container and immerse the electrodes into the water as
shown in the below figure (be careful not to immerse the bell more than directed
and that the electrical socket always remains dry).
3. Leave to stand for a few hours to allow for adequate descaling.
4. Remove from the container and rinse the electrodes with cold tap water.
5. Dry the bell, and ensure that the electrical socket is dry.
