An ultrasonic transducer atomizes water, producing refreshing visible cool mist.
NOTE: A humidity level below 20% can be unhealthy and uncomfortable. The recommended humidity level is between 40%-50%.
NOTE: To avoid white dust use only distilled water especially if A) you suffer from respiratory problems or B) you live in an area where the water has a high mineral content.
NOTE: Do not fill the water directly into the base (F).
If you do not plan to use your humidifier for two or more days, make sure any residual water is drained from the tank and base to prevent any bacteria growth in stagnant water.
Humidifiers provide comfort by adding moisture to dry, heated indoor air. To get the most benefit from the humidifier and to avoid product misuse, follow all instructions carefully, specifically the operation, care and maintenance guidelines. Please note this is an electrical appliance and requires attention when in use.
Cleaning your humidifier every one or two weeks, depending on the water conditions is important in order to maintain efficient, healthy, odour-free operation. Water quality varies widely and, combined with build-up of mineral scale in your humidifier, may under certain conditions promote the growth of micro-organisms in the water tank.
Before cleaning, Please note the following:

Appearance of minerals or "white dust" | Tap water contains minerals that collect inside your humidifier.

This will help reduce the precipitation of minerals or 'white dust'. In addition, use a demineralization cartridge.

Question | Answer |
What are the variables that affect run time? | The estimated run time for this humidifier is based on average room conditions. The actual run time of your humidifier is dependent on numerous variables such as: ✔ Air exchange in the room where the humidifier is placed. ✔ Room construction of the room where the humidifier is placed. ✔ Temperature of the room where the humidifier is placed. ✔ Humidity levels in the room where the humidifier is placed. ✔ Movement of occupants and the opening and closing of doors in the room where the humidifier is placed. ✔ Home furnishings in the room where the humidifier is placed. |
How do I remove film on water tank? | ✔ See Daily Maintenance instructions. Regular cleaning is recommended. |
How can I extend the run time? | ✔ Run your unit on the lowest setting. ✔ Fill the tank all the way full, place it on the base, let the water empty into the base until it stops bubbling, then refill the tank full again. This ensures maximum water capacity and will extend run time. |
