How it works Your appliance • washes and humidifies the air without using filter mats • works quietly in two operation modes • is manufactured from highquality, longlife components. • has a large cleansing capacity through preionization. The individual dust particles are ionized (charged) and stick to the humidifier discs. Special humidifying discs rotate in a water bath inside the unit; this cleanses the air passing over them of impurities in a natural way – in the same way that air is washed by the rain in nature. The air humidification takes place according to the self regulating principle of cold evaporation. The appliance therefore generates ideal air humidity, without the need for additional control units. A specially tuned antibacterial protection system (Ionic Sil ver Stick ® ) prevents the formation of germs in the water of the base unit. No chemical additives are therefore required to keep the water clean.

Putting into operation The best location for your appliance is: • On the floor, or on a level, dry surface in the room. • Pay proper attention to easy accessibility and sufficient space for servicing and cleaning the unit. • For increased evaporation performance in large rooms, place the appliance near a radiator (warning: a tempe rature of 122 °F / 50 °C must not be exceeded). • Read the section “Filling the tank” on how to fill the water tank (20 – 24). • Place the water tank on the lower part (24). • Connect the mains cable to the mains and switch the appliance on using the On/Off switch. • The unit will reach full capacity about 10 – 15 minutes after you switch it on. • Ensure that the mains cable is not trapped (9). Do not switch on the unit if the mains cable is defective (2). Filling the tank Always unplug the unit before removing the wa ter tank. Do not operate the appliance when the water tank is empty! Only fill the water tank with fresh, cold tap water. Use other solution at your own risk. We do no accept any liability for possible reductions in performance or damage. Do not put the water tank under pressure, e.g. by filling with carbonated mineral water. Do not add any essential oils or fragrances to the water; the plastic material might then become discoloured and damaged. Close bayonet cap (23) fully to prevent water from leaking out of the tank.
automatically changes to show the current value (CUR RENT) (E). Upon reaching the desired relative humidity, the unit automatically switches off (display shows DESIRED and CURRENT) (E). If the desired relative humidity falls, the appliance automatically switches on again. Quick display of current relative humidity When the unit is switched off (mains cable is connected, rotary switch to OFF setting), the current relative humidity can be shown in the display by briefly pressing one of the B buttons. This display automatically disappears after a few seconds. C) Change Ionic Silver Stick ® The letter C in the display indicates that the Ionic Silver Stick (ISS) must be changed.

Q. Why do I need a humidifier when I can just open my window? A. The moisture level within the outside air is not high enough to humidify a room. Q. Where should I place my humidifier? A. The unit should be freestanding and not close to a wall, window, door, or thermal bridge so that air may circulate around the unit. 2055 FAQ’s Q. I fill the water tank, and when I place it back on the unit all of the water goes into the base.
