CLEANING

Always unplug the unit before servicing in any way.

GENERAL CLEANING

Water tank. Empty water tank. Remove mist spout and clean with fresh water and a light brush (bottle cleaning brush is recommended).
Outer surface of the unit. Wipe the surface of the unit with a soft, damp cloth if needed. If you notice an accumulation of water during usage, reduce humidity and dry outer surface with a cloth.

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.

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

Unplug unit.
Remove the tank and empty all water from unit base and tank.
Locate the ultrasonic disk on the inside center of the base unit.
Use ONLY the enclosed cleaning brush to gently clean disk and remove build up and deposits. Do not scrub or scrape the ultrasonic disk.

If scale becomes difficult to remove with brush:

Fill the Base with: mixture of 1 tsp. white vinegar and 1 tsp. water.
Let solution stand for 5 minutes.
With the vinegar in the Base, clean all interior surfaces with a soft cloth or brush to help remove scale.
Also check mist nozzle and mist tube in water tank. Clean as needed.
Rinse the Base thoroughly with water to remove scale and vinegar solution.

END OF SEASON STORAGE

Follow the Cleaning and Descaling instructions when the humidifier will be stored at the end of the season.
Dry the humidifier completely before storing. DO NOT store with water inside the Base or Water Tank.

Warm humidity is not produced	It may take 10-15 minutes before warm humidity is created. The mist may not feel warm due to the fact it is so fine and is cooled rather quickly from the air in your home.

The room should feel moderately warmer if the unit is working properly.
The humidity has a bad smell	Poor maintenance or dirty water: Clean the product thoroughly, and fill it with fresh water.
White dust is forming on nearby furniture	Hard water may deposit a certain amount of dust. Dust in the air also settles because of added humidity in the room. Use distilled water if this becomes a nuisance.
