Filling
1) Lift chassis (top section) off base. Position wick in the notch at the back of
the base.
2) Before replacing the chassis, fill the base with unsoftened water. DO NOT
POUR WATER OVER THE ELECTRICAL CHASSIS. Fill the base only
through the opening provided (See illustration), to the level marked “MAX
FILL” on the center bottom of the base. If water spills on the chassis, it
must be allowed to dry completely before turning on the humidifier. If
you have only softened water available in your home, you can use it, but you
will notice a build up of minerals on the evaporative wicks much sooner.
Base capacity is 2.0 gallons. DO NOT OVERFILL.
3) We recommend using only EPA registered bacteriostat treatment such as
Essick Air Bacteriostat, Part Number 1970 whenever you refill the humidifier
base to eliminate bacterial growth. Add bacteriostat according to the
instructions on the bottle.
4) Reposition the chassis on the base and the unit is ready for operation.
5) Plug cord into wall receptacle.
CAUTION: Disconnect power before filling, cleaning or servicing unit.
Keep grille dry at all times.
CAUTION: Do not spill water on fan motor. Electrical components must be
kept dry.
