Troubleshooting Guide
The Humidifier Will Not Turn On
• Is the tank filled and properly seated
on the base?
• Is the humidifier plugged into a
powered outlet?
• Is the humidifier turned on?
• Is the desired humidity set lower
than the current room humidity level?
The humidifier turns on automatically
when the desired humidity is higher
than the current room humidity.
The Tank Leaks
• Is the filler cap gasket in place?
If not, press it into the groove
around the tank fill opening. If the
gasket seal is missing or damaged,
call the customer service number
on the cover to order a replacement
gasket. Do not use the humidifier
without the gasket in place.
• Is the filler cap locked tightly? Make
sure that the “LOCKED” arrows line
up with the ridges on the fill neck.
• Is something trapped under the edge
of the rubber seal in the center of the
filler cap? Check for debris under the
edge of the seal, or for damage to
the seal. If the seal is damaged, a
replacement seal can be ordered
by calling the customer service
number on the cover.
The Tank Is Full But the Tray Does Not Fill
• Is the cord or another object trapped
under the tank? Make sure that the
tank is properly seated on the base
and that the power cord is routed
correctly. If the tank will not seat
properly, see “Fan Enclosure or
Tank Does Not Fit on Base.”
