DESCALING

• Depending on usage and water type, cleaning to remove scale may be required weekly or every other week to optimize unit performance.
• If you live in a hard water area, we recommend the use of distilled water for your humidifier. This will help reduce the precipitation of minerals or 'white dust'.
• Do not clean the unit or water tank with detergents or cleaning chemicals of any kind.

   Do not scrub or scrape the ultrasonic disk.

If scale becomes difficult to remove with brush:

*Clean the disk with the brush only. No other cleaning tool should be used. BRUSH ONLY.

1. Fill the Base with: mixture of 1 tsp. white vinegar and 1 tsp. water.
2. Let solution stand for 5 minutes.
3. With the vinegar in the Base, clean all interior surfaces with a soft cloth or brush to help remove scale.
