How Your Humidifier Works; Assembly - Kenmore 758.144162 Operator's Manual

How Your Humidifier Works
Your new Kenmore humidifier is designed
to satisfy home humidity requirements
through the principle of evaporation of
water in the air.
After water is added to the bottle, the
filters begin to soak up the water and
become totally saturated in approxi-
mately 30 minutes. Air is drawn in from
the rear of the humidifier and through the
filters by means of circulation fans. As air
passes through the filters, moisture is
absorbed into the air and then released
in the form of vapor. No water droplets
wilt enter the home. All evaporation into
the air takes place in the humidifier,
which means that the residue left by
evaporating water is not passed into the
home, but remains in the filter.
CAUTION: Use only 32-14900 EPA
Registered Bacteriostat available
from Sears Retail store. Under no
circumstances should you use water
treatment products designed for
Roto belt or Ultrasonic humidifiers.

CAUTION: Keep your humidifier
clean. While humidifiers do not cause
colds, some studies suggest that dirty
humidifier can cause cold-like
symptoms in some people. To reduce
the risk of this, we recommend you
clean your humidifier weekly with
Humidifier Cleaner 32-14713 and use
Bacteriostat 32-14900. These are
available at your local Sears store.
