FILLING INFORMATION
7) Open the fill door on the front of the unit. Using a pitcher, carefully pour water
into the water fill door.
NOTE: Reservoir holds 3.5 gallons. Do not over-fill unit, as leaks may occur.
8) Plug cord into wall receptacle. Your humidifier is now ready for use. The
humidifier should not be near any heat registers. Place the unit at least TWO
inches away from any walls. Unrestricted airflow into the unit will result in the
best efficiency and performance.

Controls and Operation

This unit has a digital control panel that allows you to adjust fan speed and humidity
level, as well as view information on the status of the unit. The display will also
indicate if the optional Remote Control (EP9R 500 only) is in use at the time.
1) The digital controller has a display that provides information on the status of the unit.
Depending on which function is being accessed, it displays relative humidity, fan
speed, set humidity and indicates when the unit is out of water.
NOTE: On initial fill up, it will take
approximately 20 minutes for the reservoir to
fill because the dry wick has to absorb water.
Subsequent fillings will take approximately 12
minutes, since the wick is already saturated.
After the filling process is complete, and the
wick is saturated, the unit is ready for use.
CAUTION: If a plant is placed on the pedestal,
ensure no water is poured onto the control
panel when watering the plant. If water enters
the electronic control panel, damage may result.
If controls get wet, let them dry completely and
have unit checked by authorized service
personnel before plugging in.
