Using Your Humidifier
Step 1
Be sure unit is full of water and plugged
in.
Step 2
Set the Speed Control to LOW ( ).
Step 3
Set Humidity Control to a medium posi-
tion (see diagram below)
NOTE: Humidifier should operate with
humidity control on the recommended
medium setting. If it does not, the humidi-
ty is at a relatively high level. To test the
unit under this condition, turn Humidity
Control all the way to clockwise and unit
should begin to operate. After the unit
has been tested, set Humidity Control to
medium or desired level.
Allow 24 hours for humidifier to adjust.
If humidity level in home is sufficient, the
humidifier will only operate with Humidity
Control set on maximum.
IMPORTANT: Water damage may result
if condensation starts to form on win-
dows or walls. Humidity Control setting
should be lowered until condensation
no longer forms.
Operating Tips for Best Performance
1. Position the humidifier next to an
inside wall at least 2 inches from the
wall and away from any heat
registers.
2. Do not restrict airflow from entering or
exiting the humidifier.
3. Use EPA approved bacteriostat (avail-
able at your local retail store) to retard
bacteria growth that may cause odors
and may be harmful to your health.
