Cleaning and maintenance
Portable diffusers require regular cleaning to reduce the risk of bacterial growth and
to remove any scale residue to maintain good operational performance. Follow the
procedures below for healthy maintenance of your Ultrasonic Diffuser.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the diffuser is unplugged and switched OFF before cleaning or
attempting to clean or store the item. NEVER PLUG OR UNPLUG DIFFUSER WITH WET
HANDS.
DO NOT leave water in water tank when not in use as it may result in the buildup of
mineral deposits and bacteria that can inhibit the output efficiency of the diffuser.
PLEASE NOTE that if water remains in the water tank for more than a day or two of
not using the diffuser, bacterial growth is possible.
NOTE: When removing water tank and mist covers, water may accumulate under
both covers and on the bottom of the water tank. It is recommended to have a dry
cloth ready to dry wet surfaces.
Disinfecting the water tank and tank cover
1. Fill water tank to half of the maximum fill line (50ml) and put about 2-4 drops of
white vinegar into the water. Let stand 20 minutes.
2. Empty the base and rinse with cool water until the vinegar smell disappears. Dry
with a soft cloth. DO NOT IMMERSE TANK OR ITS BASE IN WATER. An electric
shock may result or the diffuser may be damaged.
3. Wipe all exterior surfaces of the base and the tank cover with a damp soft cloth.
4. Dry all parts thoroughly before using or storing the diffuser.
NOTE: It is recommended to clean the diffuser about once a week, or if cleaning
seems necessary, with the water and white vinegar solution as stated above.
IMPORTANT: Failure to keep this diffuser clean from mineral deposits normally
contained in any water supply will affect the efficiency of the operation. Customer
failure to follow these instructions may void the warranty.
