white vinegar and wipe out heating element to remove scale. DO NOT use soap,
detergents or abrasive cleaners.

How to clean humidifier exteriors
1. DO NOT IMMERSE THE BASE IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID. An electric shock may
result, or the humidifier may be damaged.
2. Wipe all exterior surfaces of the base with a soft, dry cloth.
Daily maintenance
1. Turn switch to off (O) and unplug from the wall outlet.
2. Be sure the unit has cooled for at least 15 minutes. Lift the water tank from base
and place in sink or tub.
3. Carry the humidifier base to the sink and drain any remaining water. Wipe clean
and dry with a clean cloth.
4. Drain water from the water tank. Wipe clean, and dry with a clean cloth. Let the
water tank air dry when not in use.
Weekly maintenance (Removing scale)
NOTE: We recommend cleaning the humidifier WEEKLY or more often if you have
hard water or notice a build-up of impurities or detect unpleasant odors.
Repeat steps 1-4 above.
End of season maintenance and storing
1. Follow above weekly cleaning procedure at the end of the humidification sea-
son, or when the humidifier will not be used for several days, being sure to dry
all parts. Allow the water tank to thoroughly air dry before storage. DO NOT store
with water inside any part of the humidifier.
2. Leave tank cap partially loosened during storage to prevent tank cap and gasket
from sticking together. This will prolong the life of the gasket.
3. Save original box for easy storage. Store humidifier in a cool, dry location. Do not
place any heavy items on top of humidifier during storage as this may result in
possible damage of humidifier.
