How to Assemble and Use

IMPORTANT: Your Hamilton Beach humidifier is designed for easy use and
maintenance. Make sure that the water tray and filter are properly installed before
filling the tank and operating the humidifier.
DO NOT USE THE HUMIDIFIER WITHOUT THE FILTER IN PLACE!
Selecting the Proper Location
To prevent the risk of injury or damage to the humidifier and furnishings and
provide the best possible performance of your humidifier, follow the placement
guidelines below:
DO:
• Place the humidifier on a flat, stable,
• Place the humidifier along an inside
wall near an electrical outlet where
it is out of the way and it and its cord
do not present a tripping hazard.
• Select a location with adequate
air circulation.
• Leave at least six inches (15 cm)
between the humidifier and any walls
or furnishings. Failure to do so could
cause poor air circulation and
mildew or moisture damage to walls
or furniture.
• Unplug the humidifier and empty the
water tank and tray if the humidifier is
to be moved, or will not be used
for several days.
DO NOT:
• Do not stand, sit, or place any
waterproof
surface.
• Do not block the air intake and
exhaust grilles. This will cause poor
performance and may cause moisture
damage and mildew build-up.
• Do not use in a small, enclosed
space or in an area with a humidity
level above 50%. Excessive humidity
could result.
• Do not place on or near heat sources
such as stoves, radiators, or heaters,
or in direct sunlight.
• Never place the humidifier in a
closed room. A closed room may
result in excessive humidity.
• To reduce electrical noise and
interference, do not place on or near,
or plug into the same outlet as, TVs,
baby monitors, or cordless phones.
