IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
USING THIS HUMIDIFIER
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
1. The humidifier should ALWAYS be placed on
a firm, flat, waterproof surface at least four
feet (1.2m) away from bedside, 12 inches
(30cm) from the wall and out of reach of
children and pets.
2. Be sure the humidifier is in a stable position
and the power cord is away from heated
surfaces and out of the way to prevent the
humidifier from being overturned.
3. The humidifier should not be left unattended,
especially in a closed room since air could
become saturated and leave condensation
on walls and furniture. If room becomes
saturated, open the door and turn the
humidifier off or down.
4. Before using the humidifier, extend the
cord and inspect for any signs of damage.
DO NOT use the unit if the cord has been
damaged. DO NOT operate with power cord
coiled or with twist tie in place.
5. The humidifier has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other) as a safety
feature. This plug will fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
DO NOT attempt to defeat this safety
feature.
6. CAUTION: To avoid fire or electric shock
hazard, plug the humidifier directly into a
120V AC electrical outlet. To avoid risk of
fire, electric shock, or personal injury, DO
NOT use an extension cord or power strip.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR WARM MIST HUMIDIFIER
How it Works
The tank feeds water into the boiling chamber where it is heated to a steam vapor. The steam vapor mixes
with dry air in the mist chimney and warm moist air is released into the room. When the humidifier runs out of
water, the reset light will illuminate and the unit will shut off.
