B. If no controller is being used, then plug the unit into a standard AC outlet of appropriate voltage. NOTE 230 VAC Model 5462 Systems : The 230 VAC version of the Model 5462 must be operated with the provided 230 VAC to 115 VAC step-down transformer ONLY!!! Plug the transformer into a 230 VAC outlet (or 230 VAC humidity controller output), then plug the humidifier into the 115 VAC side of the transformer.
If the problem persists, contact ETS. 3. Turn on the humidifier POWER switch. (If used with an ETS Automatic Humidity Controller, see “Humidifying” in the Controller manual.) The power indicator light will turn on immediately and the internal blower will begin moving.

1. The Model 5472 uses a small, linear air pump to force the mist into a chamber instead of the small blower fan used in the Model 5462. The pump can withstand substantially more backpressure than the blower fan.
With frequent cleaning, the electronics should operate reliably for many years. 6. Use distilled or deionized water only. MAINTENANCE & CLEANING (Model 5462 & 5472) 1. Always unplug the unit before cleaning. 2. Empty the unit of all water.
