4.2 Cleaning and maintenance
• With frequent operation we recommend that you clean the unit thoroughly at
least once a week. Clean the outside of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. You
can rinse out the bottle tank with hot water (>65 °C) or an alcohol of at least
75% vol.
• Remove the housing of the device by lifting the front end of the cover with your
thumbnail and then carefully lifting it.
• The atomiser chamber and the bottle compartment should be cleaned using an
alcoholsoaked cloth and cotton bud. Take care to ensure that no water gets
inside the humidifier.
• Before cleaning the unit, make sure that the unit is switched off and the mains
adaptor is unplugged from the outlet.
• Remove the bottle tank from the device and empty it.
• Please do not use any aggressive substances for cleaning, such as scouring
cream or other detergents, as these may damage the surfaces and reduce the
atomisation effect.

important for it to be kept clean and handled with care. Please use the provided
brush to remove deposits and dirt particles from the outlets. Never clean the
ultrasound generator using metal objects.

remaining water from the bottle tank and dry off the unit.
