CAUTION: To help retard bacteria
growth and keep maximum efficiency,
the filter should be replaced at least
once per season, or more often
under hard water conditions. Use
Kenmore 32-14912 recommended
replacement filter.
All filters may be rinsed periodically in
clear water only. Take care not to damage
paper. To replace evaporative wicking
filters in your Kenmore Quiet Comfort
Whole House humidifier, follow these
instructions.
1. Unplug humidifier and proceed to
clean. Before removing the filters, we
recommend moving the humidifier to
an area where floor coverings are not
susceptible to water damage, i.e.
kitchen or bath areas.
2. To remove parts: Remove the fan
assembly by opening the pivoting lid.
Grasp the fan assembly front center
and rear center. Lift off and set aside
on a clean flat surface. The filter
housings are now accessible.
NOTE: There are two filter housing
assemblies. Each assembly consists of
a top filter housing and a front filter
housing. The front filter housing contains
tabs that secure the top filter housing.
Do not remove the front filter housings.
3. To remove top filter housing, deflect
the two vertical tabs on top of front
filter housing and lift up and out of
cabinet. With a soft, absorbent cloth
remove any remaining water or loose
mineral deposits not trapped in the
filter from the filter housing
assemblies.
4. Remove the two filters and dispose of
properly. Repeat for other top filter
housing. Clean internal parts of
humidifier per the'Cleaning and
Maintenance" section of this operatorl_
manual.
