The evaporative, wick-type humidifier
adds moisture to the air in the form of
water vapor, by using a fan to force air
through a moistened-filter medium.
To ensure the proper and efficient oper-
ation of your humidifier, the
following cleaning and maintenance
procedures must be followed.
Failure to follow the recommended care
and maintenance instructions could
lead to a buildup of micro-organisms,
including algae, bacteria, and mildew,
which may lead to respiratory or other
ailments in some individuals.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Daily Maintenance:
1. Turn off the humidifier and unplug it
from electrical outlet.
2. Lift off the fan enclosure and remove
the filter.
3. Remove the water tank and tray
and carry them to the sink. Pour
any remaining water into the sink.
4. Rinse the water tray and tank
thoroughly to remove any dirt or
sediment. Wipe clean, then dry
with a clean cloth or paper towel.
5. Reinstall the water tray and filter,
replace the fan enclosure, and refill
the water tank with cool tap water
as instructed on page 18.
NOTE: To prolong the life of the filter,
it is recommended that you turn over
the filter each time you fill the water
tank.
6. Wipe the fan enclosure, control
panel, and cord with a damp cloth or
sponge.
Weekly Cleaning:
1. Turn off the humidifier and unplug
it from electrical outlet.
2. Lift off the fan enclosure and remove
the filter.
3. Remove the water tank and tray and
carry them to the sink. Pour any
remaining water into the sink.
4. To remove scale caused by hard
water deposits and to clean the tank
and water tray, these parts can be
either cleaned in a dishwasher or
washed by hand.
5. Inspect the filter each week. If it
becomes hard to the touch, or shows
discoloration (caused by
mineral deposits or mold/mildew
buildup), it should be replaced.
See page 40 for information about
ordering a replacement filter.
6. After cleaning and drying all parts,
follow the instructions on page 16
to reassemble the humidifier. If the
humidifier will not be used for at
least two weeks, see the “Storing
the Humidifier” section.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock:
• Always unplug before cleaning.
• Do not immerse product in water or other liquid.
