WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, ESPECIALLY WHERE CHILDREN ARE
PRESENT, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE BASIC PRECAUTIONS TO
REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK AND INJURY TO PERSONS:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance directly into a
120 V AC electrical outlet.
3. Keep the cord out of heavy traffic areas. To avoid fire hazard, NEVER
put the cord under rugs, near heat registers, radiator, stoves, or heaters.
4. DO NOT place humidifier near heat sources such as stoves, radiators,
and heaters. Do locate your humidifier on an inside wall near an
electrical outlet. The humidifier should be at least 4" away from the
wall for best results.
5. NEVER place humidifier in an area where it is accessible to children.
NEVER use humidifier in a closed room, particularly where a child may
be sleeping, resting, or playing (a closed room may result in excessive
humidity).
6. WARNING: DO NOT attempt to refill humidifier without first unplugging
the unit from it's electrical outlet. Failure to heed this warning may cause
personal injury. Be sure to pull the plug and not the cord.
7. Never place anything over moisture outlet when the unit is running.
8. NEVER drop or insert any object into any openings.
9. DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, after the
appliance malfunctions, or if it has been dropped or damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to manufacturer for examination, electrical
or mechanical adjustment, or repair.
10. Use appliance only for intended household use as described in this
manual. Any other use not recommended by the manufacturer may
cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. The use of attachments
not recommended or sold by The Holmes Group, Inc. may cause hazards.
11. DO NOT use outdoors.
12. Always place humidifier on a firm, flat, level surface. A waterproof mat or
pad is recommended for under the humidifier. NEVER place it on a rug or
carpet, or on a finished floor that may be damaged by exposure to water
or moisture.
13. DO NOT allow the Moisture Outlet to directly face the wall. Moisture could
cause damage, particularly to wallpaper.
14. Humidifier should be unplugged when not in use.
15. NEVER tilt, move, or attempt to empty unit while it is operating. Shut
off and unplug before removing the water tank and moving the unit.
16. This humidifier requires daily and weekly maintenance to operate
appropriately. Refer to daily and weekly cleaning procedures.

PLEASE READ AND SAVE
THESE IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Thank you for choosing a Holmes Cool Mist console humidifier. To ensure the
best performance from your humidifier, please read and save the following
instructions.
Consumer Safety Information
Note: This is an electrical appliance and requires attention when in use.
Note: If moisture forms on the walls or windows of the room, turn off the
humidifier. The room already has plenty of humidity and additional moisture
may cause damage.
Cord and Plug Installation Safety Instructions
The length of cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards
of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is
necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating
of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the
humidifier. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it
will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or accidentally tripped over.
HOW COOL MIST WORKS
Your Holmes Cool Mist humidifier draws dry air through the rear air intake
grill area. This air is then passed through a moisture–laden wick filter,
which retains the minerals and deposits in the water. The resulting moist
air is directed back into the room from the top air grill.
NOTE: This humidification system provides a cool, invisible moisture output.
It is normal not to see the mist.
NOTE: A humidity level below 20% can be unhealthy and uncomfortable.
The recommended humidity level is between 40%-50%.
