IMPORTANT!

To avoid deformation of working surfaces, resulting in decreased atomizing or other malfunctions, do
not use metallic brushes, blades or talc powder to wipe the atomizer's surface.

The water tank may leak after heavy impacts.

In case of water leakage, immediately stop using the unit and contact an authorized service center.

To clean the water tank and parts of the base of the device from salt deposits, use citric acid:
• for 1 liter of hot water, take 1 tablespoon of citric acid and mix well;
• pour the solution into the tank and put it on the base of the humidifier (water from the tank will automatically
fall into the base of the device);
• leave the humidifier for 10-12 hours - do not turn it on;
• after the time has passed, remove the solution from the device along with the exfoliated parts of the salt
coating;
• if it is difficult to remove plaque - use a special brush for the base of the humidifier (if this is not supplied,
you can use a toothbrush). For the tank - pour 0.5-1 cups of dry rice into cold water or a cooled citric acid
solution and shake until the plaque is peeled off;
• rinse all internal parts of the device with cool water;
• use a humidifier as usual after the procedure.
