IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the
appliance directly into a 120 V AC electrical outlet.
3. Keep the cord out of heavy traffic areas. To avoid fire
hazard, NEVER put the cord under rugs, near heat
registers, radiator, stoves, or heaters.
4. DO NOT place humidifier near heat sources such as
stoves, radiators, and heaters. Do locate your humidifier
on an inside wall near an electrical outlet. The humidifier
should be at least 4” away from the wall for best results.
5. NEVER place humidifier in an area where it is accessible
to children. NEVER use humidifier in a closed room,
particularly where a child may be sleeping, resting, or
playing (a closed room may result in excessive humidity).
6. WARNING: Do not attempt to refill humidifier without
first unplugging the unit from its electrical outlet. Failure
to heed this warning may cause personal injury. Be sure
to pull by the plug and not the cord.
7. NEVER drop or insert any object into any openings. DO NOT
place hands, face, or body directly over or near Outlet
Grill while unit is in operation. DO NOT cover Outlet Grill
or place anything over it while the unit is operating.
8. DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord
or plug, after the appliance malfunctions, or if it has been
dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to
manufacturer for examination, electrical or mechanical
adjustment, or repair.
9. Use appliance only for intended household use as
described in this manual. Any other use not recommended
by the manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock,
or injury to persons. The use of attachments not
recommended or sold by Bionaire
® may cause hazards.

11. Always place humidifier on a firm, flat, level surface. A
waterproof mat or pad is recommended for under the
humidifier. NEVER place it on a rug or carpet, or on a
finished floor that may be damaged by exposure to
water or moisture.
12. DO NOT allow the Outlet Grill to directly face the wall.
Moisture could cause damage, particularly to wallpaper.
13. Humidifier should be unplugged when not in use.
14. NEVER tilt, move, or attempt to empty unit while it is
operating. Shut off and unplug before removing the water
tank and moving the unit. DO NOT attempt to remove the
water tank within 15 minutes after the humidifier is turned
off and unplugged. Serious injury may result.
15. This humidifier requires daily and weekly maintenance.
Refer to daily and weekly cleaning procedures.
16. NEVER use detergents, gasoline, glass cleaner, furniture
polish, paint thinner, or other household solvents to clean
any part of the humidifier.
17. Excessive humidity in a room can cause water condensation
on windows and some furniture. If this happens, turn the
humidifier OFF.
18. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or
mechanical functions on this unit. Doing so will void your
warranty. The inside of the unit contains no user serviceable
parts. All servicing should be performed by qualified
personnel only.
