UNPACKING AND SETTING UP YOUR DIFFUSER
Remove the diffuser from its box. Lift the lid off the diffuser.
Take the director nozzle pack from inside the diffuser bowl.
Remove one director nozzle from the pack and place it at side
down in the recessed hole at the top of your diffuser's lid. Be
sure to store the extra director nozzle to use as a spare.
Remove the power adapter from its box. DO NOT PLUG THE
ADAPTER IN BEFORE YOU HAVE CORRECTLY FILLED THE BOWL
WITH WATER.
WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND USING ANY OF THE FOLLOWING:
DISTILLED; DEMINERALIZED; DEIONIZED; STERILE; PURIFIED
BOTTLED WATER; OR R.O. (reverse osmosis) WATER. Use of
untreated tap water may cause a build-up which will affect the
performance of the diffuser, is very dif cult to remove without
causing damage, and may void your warranty.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT OVERFILL THE DIFFUSER. Over lling will
result in water and essential oil running down the air tube,
which may damage the electronic circuitry of the diffuser and
void your warranty.
DO NOT CARRY THE DIFFUSER WITH WATER IN IT. Bring the
water to the diffuser, so that you don't have to carry the
diffuser with water in it. This is the most common cause of
water damage. To empty the diffuser, bring a bowl or glass to
the diffuser and carefully tip the remaining water out of the
diffuser. Pour the water out over the back of the diffuser, not
over the Control Panel in front.
USE ONLY PURE ESSENTIAL OILS FROM A REPUTABLE SOURCE.
DO NOT USE VEGETABLE OR MASSAGE OILS OR BLENDS,
PERFUMES, OR "FRAGRANCES", WHICH CONTAIN MOSTLY
SYNTHETIC CHEMICALS AND CAN HARM YOUR DIFFUSER.

HOW TO USE THE CONTROL PANEL BUTTONS
POWER/DISPLAY LIGHTS Button
1. Press POWER button to turn on solid blue display lights.
2. Press POWER button again to turn all lights off (while still
diffusing).
POWER/DISPLAY LIGHTS Button
1. Press POWER button once to turn on solid blue display lights.
2. Press again for solid green display lights. 3. Press a third time
for solid red display lights. 4. Press a fourth time for display lights
that cycle through a multi-color sequence. 5. Press a fth time to

MIST OUTPUT VOLUME Button
Press to cycle through and choose from three mist output
volumes...LOW, MEDIUM and HIGH. LOW will be indicated by the
left green bar lit. MEDIUM will be indicated by three green bars lit.
HIGH will be indicated by all ve green bars lit. After two seconds,
the Volume indicator lights default to show you which Mode you
are in (even though your diffuser continues diffusing at the volume
you chose).
MODE and TIMER SETTINGS Button
Mode 1. If you do not touch the MODE button, your diffuser will
automatically operate in Mode 1 (you'll know you're in Mode 1
because the left green indicator bar will remain lit). In Mode 1 your
diffuser will diffuse continuously until low water level is detected,
and it will automatically shut itself off.
Mode 2. By pressing the MODE button once, your diffuser is in
Mode 2 (second green bar will remain lit). In Mode 2 your diffuser
will diffuse continuously for two hours, and then automatically turn
itself off.
Mode 3. By pressing the MODE button twice, your diffuser is in
Mode 3 (third green bar will remain lit). In Mode 3 it will diffuse
intermittently: on for 3 seconds, then rest for 40 seconds, until low
water level is reached, and it will automatically shut itself off.

READY TO DIFFUSE
1.
Carefully pour up to one cupful (8 oz/240 ml) of clean, ltered
water into your diffuser's bowl. Again, do not over ll! Your
maximum water ll line is the top of the VERTICAL LINE on the
back of the diffuser's bowl.
2.
Onto the surface of the water drip 5-10 drops of any pure
essential oil, or a blend or combination of pure essential oils.
You can control the amount of essential oil diffused by varying
the volume output setting and the number of drops you use.
3.
Place the lid on your diffuser. Point the Director Nozzle away
from diffuser's Control Panel to prevent damage caused by mist.
4.
Now plug the adapter output (24 volts DC when powered) into
the socket at the back of the diffuser.
5.
Then plug the adapter into the AC power outlet. Now you are
ready to begin diffusing.
6.
Press the POWER button (the center button on the Control
Board Cover) to turn your diffuser to "on/ready".
7.
Press the VOLUME button (left button) once to begin diffusing
at LOW volume output. To diffuse at MEDIUM output, press the
Volume button twice. To diffuse at HIGH volume, press the
Volume button three times.
TO TURN YOUR DIFFUSER OFF, PRESS AND HOLD DOWN THE
POWER BUTTON FOR 3 SECONDS. The lights will shut off and
diffusion will stop. Note: on new production models the fan
will continue to run for a few seconds to clear remaining mist.
Use no more than 15 drops of essential oil in your diffuser.
If you use more, it's likely that not all of the essential oil will diffuse by
the time the machine turns itself off. If you see oil residue in the
remaining 2-4 oz of water, that oil was not diffused, which means you
are using too much essential oil. This can damage the director nozzle
and lid, and the transducer seal in the bottom of the bowl.
Mode 4. By pressing the MODE button three times, your diffuser is
in Mode 4 (fourth green bar will remain lit). In Mode 4 your
diffuser will diffuse intermittently: on for 15 seconds, then rest for
50 seconds, until low water level is reached, and it will automatically
turn itself off.
Mode 5. Pressing the Mode button a fourth time puts your diffuser
in Mode 5 ( fth green bar from the left will remain lit). In Mode 5
your diffuser will diffuse for 30 minutes, then rest for 15 minutes,
until low water level is reached, and it will automatically turn itself
off. Note: With display lights on, they will stay on even after the
diffuser shuts itself off. If you want the display lights off after
diffuser stops, press the Power/Lights button at any time during
operation.
CLEANING YOUR DIFFUSER
At least once a week, empty your diffuser's bowl and wipe it out
with an alcohol wipe, a soft, damp cloth, or a facial tissue. Use a
Q-tip or a small, soft brush to gently clean hard to reach places.
Look to make sure the fan on the bottom of your diffuser is free
of dust and hair. Pet owners nd that occasional gentle vacuuming
of the fan area will keep the fan clean and free to rotate.
Some essential oils may contain small amounts of natural plant
waxes or resins. These may build up over time unless removed by
occasional cleaning.
Clean your diffuser by lling the bowl with 8 ounces of pure water
and adding a few drops of a mild dish detergent or vinegar. Run
the diffuser for a few minutes. Empty the bowl, and carefully rise
with clean water. Empty again and re ll to operating level. Add
your essential oil and enjoy!
Certain essential oils, for example, clove and cinnamon bark, will
cause permanent discoloration of the bowl; however, this does not
affect diffusion.
Do not use abrasives or chemical cleaners in the bowl or on the
transducer in the bottom of the bowl.
