Maintenance

1. Cleaning the Humidifier
   The atomizing plate and heater are particularly prone to lime-scale accumulation. Clean the anti-scale cotton with clean water each time you fill the water tank, and clean the atomizing plate with dish detergent regularly (once two weeks).
   Follow the cleaning method specified below:
   1. Before cleaning, remove the head cover, water tank, air channel and other movable parts (figure 1). These parts can be washed directly under the water faucet.
      Figure 1
      
      Please remove the head cover, water tank, air channel and other movable parts.
   2. Use water and brush to clean the water box and other parts in the machine. Then pour the water from the rear of the machine according to the direction shown in (figure 2). Please do not pour water from the front of the machine (figure 3) to avoid water entering the machine from the air outlet.
      Figure 2
      
      Please pour the water from the rear of the machine.
      Figure 3
      
      Please do not pour water from the front of the machine.
   3. When cleaning the water tank cover and seal ring, do not distort them and the water tank, air channel, head cover should be installed back in place after finish cleaning.
   4. Due to the higher water hardness in some areas, the surface of atomizing plate and heating plate are prone to accumulate scale. Users should wash them regularly with detergent, and clean the inside of the water tank and the water box every week under the following instruction: Place 5 drops of dish soap on the surface of the atomizing plate and 5 drops of dish soap on the heater. Pour in approximately 30mL of water. Use a dish brush or sponge to clean the atomizing plate, heater, and sink until all lime-scale is removed. Drain the dirty water and rinse the device twice.
      Note: Make sure that the fan remains dry at all times.
2. After entering heating function, the water temperature in the water box is very high. Therefore, do not clean the machine immediately after shutting down the machine to avoid scalding. The machine should be shut down for 1 hour before cleaning.
3. Do not soak the water box, water tank with hot water while cleaning.
