Aircare HD3120DCN Guía De Uso Y Cuidado página 5

Place humidifier on a flat, level surface. Do NOT position the unit directly in front
of a hot air duct or radiator.
Due to release of cool, moist air from the humidifier, it is best to direct air away
from thermostat and hot air registers. Place the unit 2 inches from the wall.
FILLING
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or shock hazard, DO NOT pour or spill water into
control or motor area. If controls get wet, unplug unit and let controls dry completely
and have unit checked by authorized service personnel before plugging unit in.
Fill unit with cool, fresh (preferably unsoftened) water. If you only have softened water
available in your home, you can use it, but mineral buildup will occur more quickly.
NOTE: On initial fill up, it may take approximately 30 minutes for the wicks to become
fully saturated.
CAUTION: Use only EPA Registered Bacteriostat. Under no circumstances should
you use Water Treatment products intended for Rotobelt or Ultrasonic
humidifiers.
We recommend using Essick Air
the water reservoir to reduce bacterial growth. Add bacteriostat according to the
instructions on the bottle. Call 1-800-547-3888 or visit www.AIRCAREproducts.com
to order.
NOTE: This humidifier is designed to be filled using a bucket or pitcher. The unit
should be positioned where it will be operating.
To fill the humidifier, open the pivoting lid. Notice the splash guard inside the
1.
cabinet of the humidifier. Pour cool water slowly from a bucket or pitcher onto the
center of the splash guard.
2. Standing in front of the humidifier, notice the
"FULL" labels positioned to the left and right at the bottom
inside of the cabinet. These labels indicate the maximum
amount of water that can be poured into the humidifier.
DO NOT OVERFILL.
ABOUT HUMIDITY
Where you set your desired humidity levels depends on your personal comfort level, the
outside temperature, and the inside temperature.
NOTE: Recent CDC tests show that the chances of flu transmission are greatly
reduced at levels of 43% humidity or higher.
You may wish to purchase a hygrometer* to measure the humidity level in your
home. The following is a chart of recommended humidity settings.
IMPORTANT: Water damage may
result if condensation starts to form
on windows or walls. Lower the fan
speed and/or selected humidity Set
until condensation no longer forms.
We recommend room humidity
levels do not exceed 50%.
