Cleaning inside the appliance (water
tank and container).
During normal use of the device, the salts
contained in the water could lead to the for-
mation of scale residues in the tank / nebulis-
er unit (transducer) (6) and the water tank (5).
The formation of scale residues could take
place more or less quickly, depending on the
type of water, its hardness and frequency of
use of the device. The higher the water hard-
ness, the faster the formation of deposits.
Scale residues decrease performance, in-
crease noise and could compromise the nor-
mal functions of the appliance: In addition to
daily cleaning, it is therefore highly recom-
mended to perform weekly cleaning of the
appliance as follows:
1. Repeat the operations indicated in the
"Daily cleaning" section.
2. Prepare a solution of water and white vin-
egar in equal parts, and fill the water tank
(5) with the solution; repeat the process for
the humidifier container/unit (6). Leave the
solution in place for at least 4 hours (even
better if overnight).
3. Rinse thoroughly and repeatedly with
drinking water previously boiled and let
cool until at least 40°C and dry gently using
a soft cloth.
4. If necessary, repeat the operation until all
the scale residues have been removed.
WARNING!!
• Never place the device under running water.
• If not using the humidifier for long periods
of time, after cleaning it, dry the water tank
(5), the nebuliser group tank (transducer) (6)
and the water stream nozzle (3). Also check
to see if any dust has collected on the anti-
dust filter (10) installed in a specific compart-
ment inside the air vent (9). If a small amount
of dust has collected, simply tap it until the
dust comes away; if it is very dirty, rinse it un-
der running water. Once it is clean and dry,
replace it inside the air vent compartment.
• Never allow the power cable (8) or air vents
(9) to come into contact with water.
• Do not scratch the transducer with any tools.
Do not clean it with chemical or abrasive
products.
