humidifiers with stagnant water, we recommend to give the appliance a complete clean once
a week (depending on use) to avoid bacteria proliferation.
You must always switch off and unplug your appliance before undertaking any maintenance on it.
Never put the product base under tap water because of risk of water entrance by air outlet.
It is important to clean the water tank, the vaporization area (around the piezo disc, the heating
element and the piezo disc.) and the air inlet grids located under the appliance regularly.
