humidifier. Within about 1 minute, the unit will begin
to produce moisture. If it does not start working, it is
still too hot. Unplug the unit and wait 15-30 additional
minutes, plug the unit back in. The unit should now be
cool enough and operate normally.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The following maintenance procedures must be routinely
followed in order to ensure proper, efficient operation of your
humidifier. The unit WILL FAIL if it is not cleaned properly.
Regular cleaning prevents a build up of scale on the heating
element and base. It also prevents microorganisms from
growing on the base and tank. This ensures that maximum
efficiency will be achieved.
We cannot over-emphasize how essential proper cleaning is
to the maintenance and continued use of your unit and the
avoidance of algae or bacteria build-up.

DAILY MAINTENANCE

Allow to cool for 1 hour before maintenance.
1. Switch off then disconnect your humidifier from the
electrical outlet.
2. Remove the water tank then unlock the main unit. To
remove, turn the base lock (
position until the main unit can be lifted away from
the base.
3. Empty any water and minerals from the base and wash
in warm soapy water. Rinse then dry thoroughly before
use.
NOTE: It is imperative that the base is cleaned
properly. The base is also dishwasher safe (top
rack ONLY) for easy cleaning. Allow the base to dry
thoroughly before using.
4. Wipe the heating element
clean with a soft cloth. The element has a coating
that is designed to be easy to clean and prolong
the operating efficiency of your humidifier. DO NOT
immerse the main unit in water or any other liquid.
DO NOT use any metal or hard objects to clean the
element. Never use detergents, gasoline, kerosene,
glass cleaner, furniture polish, paint thinner or other
household solvents to clean any part of your humidifier.
