HOW TO USE
ESSENTIAL OIL
Use your favorite essential oil to deliver scent into the air.
NOTE: For use with the included HoMedics essential oil pads only.
NOTE: Do not leave a filled essential oil pad in the oil tray of the humidifier if it will be out of use for an
extended period of time.
ARE ESSENTIAL OILS SAFE TO USE AROUND PETS?
We should always exercise caution when using essential oils around pets. Keep all essential oil and
aromatherapy products (like diffusers) out of the reach of pets. Keep open bottles away from pets to
avoid internal consumption. We do not recommend the topical use of essential oils on pets, as they have
a strong sense of smell and cannot get rid of the oil if they don't like it or it is disturbing them. When
diffusing essential oils around pets, always diffuse in a well-ventilated area and leave an option for them
to remove themselves from the space, such as leaving a door open. Every animal is different, so carefully
observe how each animal responds when introducing an essential oil for the first time. If irritation occurs,
discontinue the use of the essential oil. We recommend seeking medical attention if ingestion of essential
oil occurs.

ABOUT WHITE DUST
Use of high mineral content hard water may cause a white mineral residue to accumulate on surfaces
in the room near the humidifier. The mineral residue is commonly called "white dust." The higher the
mineral content (or, the harder your water is), the greater the potential for white dust. The white dust is
not caused by a defect in the humidifier. It is caused only by minerals suspended in the water.
If you live in an area with hard water or use a water softener, we recommend using distilled water for
better results from your humidifier. Never use water-softening additives in your humidifier.
