Usage; Cleaning And Maintenance - Beurer LB 88 Instructions For Use Manual

• To fill the tank, open the screwed plug underneath it.
• Now fill the tank with water. The water tank holds a max-
imum of six litres, and the water level is visible from the
outside.
• Lock the water tank with the screwed plug.
• You may now optionally insert the anti-lime pad (15) into
the evaporator pan. We recommend doing so if you live in
a hard water area.
• The tank should sit tightly on the base unit.
• Check whether the misting outlet nozzle is positioned cor-
rectly on the water tank.
IMPORTANT
• Do not add any essential oils or fragrances to the water. If
other additives are used, the plastic material and the ultra-
sound membrane may become discoloured and damaged.
• Use fresh water in the device.
• Use warm water (30°C – 45°C) and always fill the tank to
the maximum level, otherwise the device could leak due to
physical factors.
Positioning the device
• Place the air humidifier on a firm, level and water-resistant
surface.
• Position the air humidifier in the vicinity of a heating pad
to improve evaporation output, particularly in large rooms
(do not exceed a max. temperature of 50 °C). Always ensure
that the air inlet and air outlet remain clear and that the air
flows freely.

7. USAGE

IMPORTANT
Check the humidity of your ambient air regularly. Intensive con-
tinuous operation can cause the ambient air to become exces-
sively humid. The relative air humidity should not exceed 60%.
Switching on the device
• Insert the plug into the mains socket.
• From the min./ position, turn the control dial to the right.
The blue illuminated operating loop lights up. If there is not
enough water or no water at all in the water tank, a red LED
lights up. The device has switched o for safety reasons.
• Use the control dial to set the desired evaporation output.
Evaporation output is limited to a maximum of 550 ml per
hour.
• When the device is switched on, the water evaporation level
is already set to 1; a single blue LED shows the operation.
By pushing the middle control knob ( ), the water evapo-
ration level increases to 2 (second blue LED lights up). By
pressing it again, both LEDs turn on – level 3. (Evaporation
level). The vaporisation stops when the controller is turned
to the left again.
• Check the water level regularly during operation and refill
the tank if necessary.
You may optionally add drops of aroma/scented oils to
the aroma compartment (13). These will lend a pleasant
odour to the room.

8. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Regular cleaning is a prerequisite for hygienic and fault-free
operation.
The air humidifier can be dismantled easily and without tools
for cleaning.
Always empty and thoroughly clean the air humidifier if the
device contains water and has not been operated for longer
than 3 days.
A lack of cleaning and hygiene can cause bacteria, algae and
fungi to form in the water.
In any case, we recommend the following cleaning intervals.
Every As required

Use either a citric acid solution (30 g pure citric acid powder
dissolved in 1 l water) or a vinegar solution (household vinegar
with 5% acid content mixed with water in a ratio of 1:2) as a
descaling solution.
• Clean the device using only the methods specified.
• Under no circumstances may liquid enter the base
unit.
• Do not use any solvent-based cleaning products.
• Use only a mild detergent or citric acid or vinegar-
based solution to perform cleaning or disinfection
work.
Cleaning the ultrasound membrane with a
brush, rinsing the base
Empty the water from the base unit via the side rim.
• Clean the ultrasound membrane with the cleaning brush
provided.
A
Should dirty residue remain in the base unit, pour some clean,
fresh water into the base unit and empty it out via the side edge.
Clean the water evaporation pan
The evaporation pan is hot during operation. Allow the
device to cool su ciently before cleaning it.
1. Hold the air outlet in one hand and turn it gently backwards.
B
2. Hold the air outlet firmly and remove it.
3. If necessary, remove the anti-lime pad.
4. Clean the evaporation pan with the cleaning brush. For heavy
contamination, use a mild cleaning product, and allow it to
work together with water in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then
clean again with the cleaning brush.
5. Should dirty residue remain in the evaporation pan, pour
some clean, fresh water into the base unit and empty it out
via the side edge.
6. Rinse the anti-lime pad in clear water.
7. Reinsert the anti-lime pad and position the air outlet back
on the base unit.
